Our Retreat Centre is nestled in the lush rainforests of the ancient Koonyum Range. Though you will feel fully secluded on our 50 acres with creeks, panoramic views to the ocean and stunning escarpments, we are conveniently located less than 10 minutes from Mullumbimby in the Byron Bay Shire, one of the main spiritual hearts of the state.
Retreat centre, accommodation options, itinerary, and getting here
The Centre has a number of outside seating areas nestled amidst manicured gardens, ponds, water fountains and walkways that are perfect for your own private meditation zones. The main event temple where we meet is an exquisite sacred space for holding us in heightened states and amplifying the power of our practices together
With six bedrooms in the main house and two outdoor dwellings, we can fit 18 people as well as room for sleeper vans and tenting. Nature is perfectly balanced with the exotic architecture and enhanced with sacred statues from 5 different spiritual cultures. You will feel the 18 years of devotion that our property owner has poured into making this Shambhala portal for you to step into and exit your every day reality.
Our Retreat Centre is located in the general Byron Region at the top of New South Wales. Just 20 minutes from the ocean, yet tucked deep away in the hinterlands, our unique biodiversity will enchant and support the melting away of thoughts, stress and distractions in order to discover the enchanted garden within you.
Accommodation options range from only $200 to $444 for your 4-night stay and tailored experience with 3 organic meals included each day. Options to stay longer, before and after, are available as well!
Please contact us to arrange your most desired bedding option.

For those locals not staying onsite
If you are not joining us at the Rising Phoenix Retreat for your accommodations, we ask that you arrive half hour before starting time each day. Settle in, have a tea or snack, and deepen in with your new allies and friends from the retreat before we officially open ceremony each day.
For those traveling from farther away
If you are flying in, we recommend the Gold Coast (OOL), which is about an hour north of our retreat. Alternatively, Ballina Airport is only 45 minutes away, but doesn’t serve all cities. Please don’t hesitate to contact us for any support in arranging your arrival. We also recommend that you arrive at least a day early to the area, since we begin at 10:30 a.m. on the first day. Our retreat center has available accommodations for the evening before Day 1 and the evening of our final Day 5, which will finish at 4 pm.
