WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

This isn't about doing more. It's about feeling more.

Most retreats stay in one place. This one moves — from the cultural richness of Bali (Uluwatu & Ubud) to the untouched, raw beauty of Sumba. Two completely different worlds, one seamless journey.

Mornings begin with pilates and yoga. Days unfold across waterfalls, temples, rice terraces and remote beaches. Evenings slow right down — yin, sound healing and space to fully exhale.

You'll do more than you thought possible and still feel completely restored at the end of it.

    • Accommodation at hand-selected luxury properties in Uluwatu, Ubud & Sumba

    • Daily pilates and yoga — morning movement with ocean or jungle views

    • Signature experiences — sacred waterfall ceremony, sound healing at Pyramids of Chi, swimming with horses & more

    • Most meals — think fresh local cuisine, long table breakfasts and beachside dinners

    • All ground transfers between destinations & arrival transfers

    • Expert guidance from Courtney every step of the way

    • A small, intimate group — so every experience feels personal

  • Part One — Bali · Oct 25–Nov 1

    7 nights across Uluwatu and Ubud. Cultural immersion, signature wellness experiences and jungle villa life. A complete retreat in itself.

    Part Two — Sumba · Nov 1–6

    5 nights at the exclusive Alamayah. Remote, raw and extraordinary. For those who want to go deeper and further off the beaten track.

    The Full Wanderlust Experience · Oct 25–Nov 6

    Both islands. Two completely different worlds. The most transformative option — and the one most guests choose once they see what's on offer.

Where you’ll stay

  • "Everything just flowed. I didn't have to think about anything — just show up and enjoy."

    Susan, Australia

  • "It felt like a true community. The friendships, the shared meals, the energy — everything just clicked. Waking up to nature and moving through each day with intention was something really special. I honestly didn't want it to end."

    -Pippa, Australia

  • The most grounding week of my life. Every day felt intentional without being overwhelming. The balance of movement, rest, and exploration was perfect."

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our Bali and Sumba yoga retreat is designed to be flexible. You can join Bali only, Sumba only, or experience the full 13-day journey across both islands. Each part works beautifully as a standalone retreat — and the full Wanderlust Experience offers deeper immersion and transformation.

  • Not at all. This Bali yoga and pilates retreat welcomes all levels — complete beginners through to experienced practitioners. Every session has options to modify or progress so you work at exactly the right pace for your body.

  • We blend nervous-system-supportive yoga with strength-based pilates for a balanced and sustainable approach to movement. Morning sessions are energising, evening sessions are slow and grounding. No two days feel exactly the same.

  • This is not a traditional single-location Bali yoga retreat. While movement is central to every day, this experience also integrates immersive cultural experiences, adventure, rest and nervous system support — across two of Indonesia's most extraordinary islands.

  • We intentionally balance guided experiences with free time throughout the Bali and Sumba retreat — so you can rest, explore, receive a massage, or simply do nothing at all. This is your escape. You set the pace.

THE EXPERIENCE

  • Fly into Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali (DPS). This is the main international airport for Bali and has direct flights from most major Australian cities. We'll send full flight guidance in your welcome pack once you're booked.

  • Sumba is approximately a 1.5 hour domestic flight from Bali — short enough to feel seamless, far enough to feel like a completely different world. We handle all internal transfers and help guide you to book your domestic flight between the two islands as part of the full Wanderlust Experience.

  • Yes — travel insurance is compulsory for all Holistic Escapes retreats. We recommend comprehensive cover including medical, cancellation and travel delay. Please arrange this before your final payment is due.

TRAVEL & LOGISTICS

  • Your Bali and Sumba wellness retreat includes all accommodation across both islands, daily yoga and pilates sessions, breakfast daily in Bali, full board in Sumba, curated cultural experiences, signature wellness experiences and full in-destination support throughout.

  • Flights, travel insurance (compulsory), lunches and dinners in Bali, optional spa treatments and personal expenses are not included in your retreat investment.

  • In Bali, daily breakfast is included with the flexibility to explore Uluwatu and Ubud's incredible café scene for other meals. In Sumba at Alamayah, all meals are included — think farm-to-table dining in one of Indonesia's most beautiful settings.

ACCOMMODATION & INCLUSIONS

  • A US$500 deposit per part secures your space immediately (US$1,000 for the full Wanderlust Experience). Your room is confirmed upon receipt of deposit with our secure travel booking partner Perfect Travel Group. Flexible payment plans are available with the final balance due 90 days before departure.

  • Once booked you'll receive welcome information covering everything — detailed retreat information, flight guidance, what to pack, visa requirements, health preparation and direct access to Courtney throughout your journey.

  • Deposits and payments are non-refundable. We strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance to cover any changes to your plans. Full terms and conditions are available on our booking terms page.
