One of just 15 NSW getaways selected for Good Weekend’s annual collection of Australian escapes.
We’re delighted to share some exciting news! Eucalypt Retreat has been featured in Good Weekend’s 2026 52 Weekends Away edition, published on 7 November 2026.
Showcasing 52 memorable escapes across Australia, the annual edition brings together a carefully curated selection of destinations, personally explored by travel writers.
And we’re thrilled that Eucalypt Retreat is one of 15 NSW getaways included this year.
Nestled among five acres of natural beauty overlooking Conjola Creek, our luxury retreat has always been about offering something a little different — a place to slow down, reconnect with nature and create lasting memories with family and friends.
To see that experience recognised in a national publication is something we’re incredibly proud of.

A South Coast escape worth discovering
In the feature, Good Weekend travel writer Stephanie Peatling explores what makes Eucalypt Retreat such a distinctive getaway, from its treetop setting and thoughtful design to the many experiences waiting just beyond the doorstep.
With six beautifully appointed bedrooms accommodating up to 13 guests, two spacious living areas and a wrap-around balcony overlooking Conjola Creek and the Budawang Ranges, the retreat offers the perfect balance of space, privacy and connection.
At its heart is our infinity pool and heated spa, where sweeping views provide a spectacular backdrop for lazy afternoons and sunset drinks.
But it’s not just the luxury accommodation that makes a stay here memorable.
The little things that make a big difference
One of the things we particularly loved about the Good Weekend feature was its focus on the experiences that make Eucalypt Retreat so special.
Mornings might begin with the sounds of native birds and nearby farm animals, followed by a visit to our friendly Suffolk sheep or a wander through the orchard and greenhouse to discover what’s in season.
For those feeling adventurous, there’s kayaking and fishing on Conjola Creek, a game of croquet on the lawn or a short drive to the beautiful beaches of Bendalong.
Others might prefer to spend the afternoon soaking in the spa, enjoying a long lunch on the balcony or gathering around the fireplace as the evening settles in.
It’s this combination of natural beauty, thoughtful touches and opportunities to connect that we hope makes every visit feel special.
Luxury with nature at its heart
Sustainability is also an important part of the Eucalypt Retreat story, and we were pleased to see this acknowledged in the feature.
Designed with off-grid living in mind, the property incorporates solar power, battery storage, rainwater collection and other environmentally conscious features.
Our solar-powered pool and spa, seasonal garden produce and commitment to minimising waste reflect our belief that luxury and a lighter environmental footprint can go hand in hand.
It’s about creating a beautiful experience while respecting the environment that makes this part of the NSW South Coast so remarkable.
