Reset • Recharge • Reconnect
Boutique wellness retreats designed to restore balance, inspire growth, and leave you deeply recharged.
At Jula Retreats, we bring together coaching, yoga, crafts, skincare & massage, cooking classes, wine tasting, and breathwork — woven into a seamless luxury weekend. With curated partners and stunning venues across Martinborough and Wellington, our retreats are crafted for busy professionals who want to pause, reset, and return to life re-energised.
Our Philosophy
Jula Retreats was founded on a simple belief: transformation happens when you slow down and reconnect with your true self.
Our boutique retreats are designed to create lasting impact — combining luxury with empowerment. Every experience is intimate, personalised, and curated with trusted local partners. Whether it’s a yoga session, a cooking masterclass, or a fireside conversation, our goal is to help you feel deeply reset, recharged, and reconnected.
Every Jula retreat is unique. While our philosophy of helping you reset, recharge, and reconnect remains constant, the activities, partners, and experiences may vary. Here are some of the elements we look to include across our retreats:Accommodation & Amenities
