What a beautiful way to spend a Sunday evening. From the moment we walked in, we were completely taken care of. Everything had been thoughtfully prepared, delicious protein balls, herbal teas, relaxing tonics, and all the yoga mats and bolsters laid out ready for us overlooking the beach as we waited for the sunset.

Everything had been thoughtfully prepared, delicious protein balls, herbal teas, relaxing tonics, and all the yoga mats and bolsters laid out ready for us overlooking the beach as we waited for the sunset. The evening began with breathwork, which helped me slow down, focus, and reconnect with myself. This flowed into a beautiful yoga reset, followed by an informative nutrition session on the Mediterranean way of eating and its benefits for health and wellbeing. Throughout the evening, we were nurtured with more delicious snacks and a gorgeous Mediterranean bowl of chickpeas and quinoa for dinner. The whole experience felt calming, restorative, and incredibly nourishing. I left feeling relaxed, grounded, and completely cared for. A truly special evening that I would highly recommend to anyone needing a little reset and some time to refill their cup. 💗

I had such a lovely morning with Belle and La Marea, as part of our corporate Wake Up to Wellness experience. The morning included yoga, breakfast, a nutrition session, massage, pasta making and lunch, the perfect mix of wellness, relaxation and connection.

Everything was beautifully organised, and all the little details were so thoughtfully considered. The La Marea team created such a welcoming and enjoyable experience for our group, and it was a great opportunity to step away from the office and spend quality time together. I would highly recommend La Marea for a corporate retreat or wellness experience.

The Sunset Retreat experience with Belle and Jaimi was truly wonderful. A nurturing experience, from the warmth I felt from the onset of arriving and right thru. Belle, your considered planning and vision to make us feel special is a credit to you.

I left grounded, inspired, cared for and mindful of my body and how treating myself with kindness is the best investment inside and out. Keep shining with your beautiful heart x

Recently attended a corporate retreat with Belle and the La Marea team, and from start to finish, it was absolutely wonderful! Everything was so thoughtfully planned and organised, with every little detail taken care of. I absolutely loved my massage, and the pasta-making class was such a fun experience.

I couldn’t recommend the La Marea team highly enough for anyone looking to organise a corporate retreat or getaway.

I recently attended the Sunset Retreat and honestly had such a beautiful experience. From the moment I arrived, everything felt so calming and thoughtfully planned. The venue itself was stunning, the large glass windows overlooking the beach while watching the sunset created the most peaceful atmosphere. It was absolutely beautiful.
I recently attended the Sunset Retreat and honestly had such a beautiful experience. From the moment I arrived, everything felt so calming and thoughtfully planned. The venue itself was stunning, the large glass windows overlooking the beach while watching the sunset created the most peaceful atmosphere. It was absolutely beautiful. The little details made the experience feel extra special. I loved the sweet treat ball and the delicious health drink on arrival. The aesthetic of the whole event was gorgeous, from the colour scheme to the beautiful Fleurieu candle and the amazing goodie bags. As a busy working and studying mum, I rarely take time to properly relax or do something just for myself, so I’m really glad I chose to attend. The yoga practice was incredible, gentle, grounding and accessible without being too difficult. It gave my body such a needed stretch and release. The breathwork session and the empowering words Jaimee shared were such a beautiful reminder to slow down and reconnect with myself. It’s honestly not often that my body fully relaxes, but after the practice I felt calm, lighter and genuinely relaxed. The group of women attending was also lovely. The environment felt welcoming and wholesome, never intimidating. Jaimee and Belle both made such an effort to personally greet everyone and create a warm, inclusive space. I also really enjoyed Belle’s nutrition education talk. I took away some valuable tips and I loved the recipes and information sheets that were provided to continue learning afterwards. Overall, it was such a nourishing and thoughtfully curated experience. I would absolutely recommend the Sunset Retreat to others and I’m already looking forward to attending the next event.
