Gaia Retreat & Spa

My stay at Gaia was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the thoughtfulness and care that goes into every detail of the guest experience. The team takes personalisation to another level, and everything from my schedule to my meals felt tailored just for me. The food was absolutely outstanding, nourishing, flavourful and beautifully presented. Every meal felt like a celebration of wellness and creativity, and you could truly taste the love and intention that went into each dish. The included group activities were also a highlight. There was such a wide variety to choose from, including yoga, meditation, pilates, cooking classes and nature walks, all run by passionate instructors who made everyone feel welcome regardless of experience. What really sets Gaia apart though is the people. Every single staff member was genuine, kind and committed to making guests feel cared for. A special mention must go to Bianca, the manager, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail of my stay was perfect, always with a smile and a sense of calm warmth. I also want to thank Annie, the gorgeous therapist who gave me the most relaxing facial and pedicure. Her nurturing energy and gentle nature made the experience deeply restorative, and I left feeling renewed inside and out. Rodrigo served our meals with such passion, care and attention. His dedication to ensuring every guest’s comfort and enjoyment truly elevated each dining experience, and his wine recommendations were absolutely fantastic. A heartfelt mention also to Renee, who led the Bliss Breathwork session. Her guidance was both grounding and transformative, and the tools I learned from that experience have been invaluable. I’ve found I can better manage my wellness at home thanks to what I learned during my stay. Gaia is more than a health retreat, it is a place of healing, connection and genuine hospitality. I left feeling rejuvenated, inspired and deeply grateful. I cannot wait to return.
