About

Trip Overview

Our inaugural Australia retreat takes you to the rolling hills of the Gold Coast Hinterland, just half an hour inland from the spectacular coastline and a world away from the noise. You’ll stay in a luxury homestead, waking up to uninterrupted views of ancient rainforest and a kangaroo or two if you’re lucky! Over five days, we’ll train in the mornings and relax into the evenings. We’ll run with the sunrise along Dreamtime Beach, recover with sauna and cold plunge sessions, and spend it all with a group of like-minded, soon-to-be best mates.

Your Week

Day By Day

Day 1

Welcome to the Hinterland

Arrive at your private homestead in the hills and take it all in: a 20-metre pool framed by palms and vineyards stretching down the slopes with panoramic ocean & rainforest views. We’ll kick things off with sunset yoga followed by our first dinner prepared by our private chef - the perfect way to settle in, get to know the group, and start as we mean to go on.

Day 2

Into the Aussie Rhythm

The day begins with a big team workout on our private pickleball court, followed by a delicious breakfast and some well-earned pool time. Then it’s yoga to reset, a chef-prepped lunch and an afternoon to make the homestead your own - from the sauna and cold plunge to the games room, the full estate is at your disposal. Come evening, it’s time to turn it up again for workout number two, before settling around the fire pit with dinner as the sun sets and the group gets properly into its rhythm.

The Villa

Your Private Hinterland Homestead

A luxury eight-bedroom homestead nestled in the rolling hills of the Gold Coast Hinterland. The sprawling estate has everything you need for your stay - a 20-metre pool, sauna and cold plunge, private pickleball court, wood-fired pizza oven, vineyard and games room, all with panoramic ocean and native forest views stretching for miles. The perfect setting for an epic week of training, recovery and fun.

Day 3

Sunrise Run to Sunset Supper

We’re up early for a quintessentially Australian morning: a sunrise run along pristine Dreamtime Beach as the world wakes up, followed by beachside coffee and a cold plunge back at the villa. After brunch and some downtime, we’ll flow through an afternoon yoga session before dialing up the energy with a little friendly competition on our pickleball court. Then it’s sunset spritzes and dinner at the local award-winning farm-to-table spot, just moments from the homestead.

Day 4

Pool Chills and Fire-Pit Feasts

Back doing what we do best for our final full day under the palms and Aussie sunshine. Starting with a morning workout, refuel over breakfast, reset with yoga, and come together for one final afternoon training session. The trip ends on a high with a final feast - a homemade dinner around the fire pit to watch the sunset with each other one last time, and celebrate a week well spent.

Day 5

Until Next Time

Even if it’s check-out day, there’s always time for one last morning workout and a final breakfast together. The week might be over, but the friendships definitely aren’t - expect a few emotional goodbyes, a very active group chat, and plans to do it all again.

“Honestly had the best time! The villa was gorgeous, the food was unreal and the team was just incredible — so friendly, helpful and full of energy, they honestly couldn't have done enough for us. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.”

“I would highly recommend this retreat for solo travellers. Amy and Mike are amazing hosts and make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The food is outstanding. The workouts are fun and variety packed. You feel like a mini family by the time you leave.”

“Amy and Mike have created the most amazing experience with Salt Escapes. I've just returned from a week away, and had what is probably the best holiday of my life. Everything from the workouts, to the food, to the excursions to the accommodation, was 5 star.”

“My experience with Salt Escapes was next level. Mike and Amy were amazing hosts. The workouts were challenging, but the coaches are supportive and encouraging the whole time. The food was delicious and the views were insane. I highly recommend this for solo travellers.”

“Couldn't have imagined a better trip. The hosts were top tier people and coaches. The like-minded people who attended I'm already planning to see again. Different from any vacation and exactly what I needed. Will be back.”

“Salt Escapes was hands down one of the best weeks of not only my summer but my life. The workouts, people and trainers were all unreal. You come away feeling refreshed and with new friends for life. It's a must do if you ask me.”

“WHAT A TRIP. Salt Escapes is the perfect balance of high quality fitness, nutritious meals, expert instruction and pure luxury. Mike, Amy and the team were incredibly accommodating to all levels of fitness. I cannot recommend this enough.”

“It's difficult to put into words how incredible this trip was. From the incredible workouts, amazing food, to the friendships made… everything was over-the-top extraordinary!”

“The best week ever — incredible coaches and hosts, wonderful people, perfectly balanced itinerary, amazing food. If you're in doubt or nervous, just book the holiday and you'll have the best time.”

“5 stars no question. The workouts were brutal but in the best way possible. I loved the balance with daily yoga, good for the soul and the aches. And the food was spectacular every day. The only problem is deciding which trip to do next.”

“Brilliant balance of challenging HIIT workouts, yoga recovery, and down time to relax and enjoy the location. Every day was fueled by stellar food and great company.”

“The best week of my life. No exaggeration. The training, the people, the food - everything was next level.”

“I was nervous about going alone but within hours I felt like I'd known everyone for years. Can't wait to book another.”
