Healthy boundaries at Gwinganna

At Gwinganna Lifestyle Retreat, your health and wellbeing is our top priority.

A visit to Gwinganna is a commitment to respect our philosophy so we can help re-evaluate lifestyle habits that do not foster wellness, energy and calmness. As such, we restrict guests from bringing or consuming cigarettes, e cigarettes/vapes, drugs, food, caffeinated drinks or alcohol anywhere on the property.

Further, Gwinganna is not a medical facility and reserves the right to refuse to check in any persons who are intoxicated or who have undisclosed drug or alcohol addiction. Failure to comply will result in the entire booking being cancelled without refund.

For everyone’s safety and well-being, including your own, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider or local health authorities if you feel unwell or have concerns about travelling.

Guests who require medications, including an EpiPen, must ensure these are brought, maintained, and used according to their healthcare provider’s instructions.

In emergencies, the nearest hospital is approximately 30 minutes away. Ambulance services will be called if hospital transport is necessary.

Our property includes uneven terrain. Guests must be physically able to navigate the retreat on foot.
