Elysian Retreat

The Story

A barefoot kind of luxury, hidden away in the Whitsundays.

Elysian sits at the southern tip of Long Island, surrounded by the calm waters of the Whitsundays. With just ten oceanfront villas, it’s a peaceful, adults-only escape where everything is taken care of — from daily yoga to fresh, locally sourced meals.

Powered by the sun and supported by rainwater, Elysian is run with care for the island it calls home, balancing barefoot luxury with a genuine respect for the environment.

Swim in the magnesium pool. Stretch out in a morning yoga class. Snorkel or kayak straight from the beach. Or settle in with a book and let the day go by without a second thought.

Why we love them: A quiet, beautifully run retreat that makes it easy to reconnect with nature and yourself.
