Queensland Health Retreat 1. Daintree Ecolodge 

Daintree Ecolodge enchants you through its serene and natural surroundings. It’s rainforest views from your own private balcony and the nearby havens you can explore, such as the Great Barrier Reef, Mossman Gorge and Cape Tribulation, are what make it so special for a wellness escape. 

When it comes to relaxing, very few places compare to the Daintree Wellness Spa. The inviting spa offers treatments like the Kambarr sensory journey and Walu Balbal facial. It also hosts classes in meditation, Pilates, yoga, reiki and art therapy. All the essentials for a wellness retreat.

Whatever can’t be sourced from the resort’s on-site veggie garden is collected from the surrounding sustainable farms and artisans. 

Lastly, in wellness there are always the three components that contribute to your overall feel. Mind, body and exercise. There is nothing quite like exercising in nature and breathing in clean and fresh air. Give your body the sustenance and life it deserves with some of the Daintree’s enriching rainforest activities. Embark on a guided walk through the Daintree, challenge yourself to the zip-lining tour or venture out onto the Great Barrier Reef for snorkelling.
