Wellness industry entrepreneur Tony de Leede has announced the opening this month of the EcoView Retreat on the Gold Coast.

de Leede, also the co-owner/founder of the Gwinganna Lifestyle Retreat (also on the Gold Coast), has created the new location to offer a more tailored experience for guests and groups.

Located in the Tallebudgera Valley, the $9 million project offers 15 villas, five multipurpose treatment rooms, outdoors pools, spas and a yoga fitness studio.

Advising that the property has been created so guests can host their own retreats, de Leede explained that “the location mind-blowing as the property sits at one of the highest points of Tallebudgera.

“The feeling of being immersed in nature and the no stress environment will resonate very quickly.”

Noting that the EcoView concept is “very different” to Gwinganna, de Leede stated “I believe everyone is far more interested in living longer and better, so retreats for either corporate or fitness blend significant lifestyle elements will be the way of the future.

“The person renting the retreat gets to curate everything the way they want it.

“They essentially get the keys to the exclusive property that has spectacular views. Coupled with the fact we have a list of chefs, lifestyle experts and activity experts.”
