Watch the video to hear what some of the 2025 Strength & Serenity Retreat guests have to say about the experience!

“I attended the Retreat from Aug 18-22nd last year and it is now one of my core memories for life. The Komune resort is so serene and stunning, setting the scene for the mix of Strength, Yoga/Pilates/dance, and meditation/sound bowl classes. 

The choice of classes was amazing and catered for all levels, all the trainers (Stef, Mel & Ash) were so encouraging and the whole group came together through their beautiful energy and enthusiasm. 

The group dinners in the evening and ability to also have some alone time/day off from activity as needed, meant it gave everyone the freedom to attend as much, or as little as you liked, but with the vibes being so high, you will end up jumping out of bed every day

I am beyond grateful I decided to take the leap and go solo on this Retreat, while I already knew Stef (my amazing previous Pilates trainer) and her husband Cam, I ended up meeting so many wonderful people that made the Retreat so special. 

So, if you are on the fence about attending, I would encourage you to take the leap of faith and know that you will end up being part of something special and will make lifelong memories.”

-Grainne C.

“I attended the 2025 retreat and genuinely loved every aspect of it. What really set it apart from other retreats I’ve experienced was the variety of sessions, each day felt fresh and different. You could challenge yourself with Ash’s high-energy strength classes or slow things down with Mel’s calming, mindful yin sessions.

The resort itself is incredible, offering plenty of nourishing soul food (easy for dietaries), along with access to saunas, plunge pools, and delicious massages. One of the most unexpected highlights was connecting with like-minded people and building some truly special connections over the few days.

I’ll definitely be returning.”

“The Strength and Serenity retreat was such a delight. What I loved most was how easy it felt. No weird forced bonding, no intensity for the sake of it, just a really relaxed, welcoming space where you could dip in and out, but still connect with people in a real way. I’m still in touch with a few from the retreat, which says everything about the people who attend and the space that Stef, Mel and Ash create.

The classes were great: three instructors, all with different styles, so it never got samey. The sound healing was a standout for me, mostly because I’d never done it before and ended up completely switching off (rare). The setting is stunning, the resort is luxe without being wanky, and the food was excellent (catering for gluten/dairy free that wasn’t an afterthought).

If you’re on the fence - just book it. It’s low pressure, high reward, and you’ll probably leave feeling better than you expected.”

The visa costs roughly 500,000 IDR (∼$50 AUD) and is available online in the form of an e-Visa on Arrival (e-VoA), which must be applied for at least 48 hours in advance.

Any digital e-Visa-on-Arrival ​applications must be applied for up to 14 days before your trip, and no later than 48 hours before your arrival to allow sufficient time for processing. The VoA and e-VoA both cost around 500,000 IDR (∼$50 AUD). Both the VoA and e-VoA are short-term visas that cater mainly to tourism. 

    There may be other entry requirements for tourists to Indonesia, and we recommend you stay up to date with any changes via official websites.
