Stay somewhere relaxing near the Relationship Retreat

Retreat accommodation near Port Willunga

We find that participants get the most out of their relationship retreat experience by staying off-site where they have plenty of space and privacy.

Even if you live in Adelaide, staying in Port Willunga or one of the nearby towns frees you from the usual responsibilities of home and family for the weekend. The only question is - where to stay?

Luckily, there is plenty of accommodation in Port Willunga and in nearby towns on the Fleurieu Peninsula.

Retreat participants often choose to extend their stay with some extra time to enjoy the beautiful Fleurieu coastline, walking trails, galleries, boutique cellar doors and regional dining.

Here are our previous participants' picks of accommodation options in different towns and price ranges.

You'll also find plenty of options by searching any of these towns on airbnb and stayz.

I have really enjoyed taking time out of our busy lives to reconnect and learn about my husband. How we can communicate constructively and how we can repair our marriage.

An essential tool to connect or enhance your connection with your partner. A valuable weekend to focus on each other. We keep coming back because we want to be the very best version of us.
