An Adults-Only Wellness Retreat Has Just Opened In Byron Bay
Hide and seek
By Bianca Licina | 13th August 2025If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that Brisbanites love to trade the city life for crashing waves, salty air, and the laid-back lifestyle of Byron Bay. And now, there’s another reason to visit everyone’s favourite coastal slojourn.
Meet Hide, Byron’s new luxury boutique hotel. As the name suggests, this is your cue to disappear from the daily grind, ditch the stress, and seek pure tranquillity. Did we mention it’s adults-only? Kids are a hoot and all, but could we go without the squealing? Absolutely. With an emphasis on wellness, this retreat offers a complete and total detox.
So, what’s Hide?
Right in the heart of Byron — just a short stroll from the cafés, shops, and restaurants you love (find Byron’s best eats here) — Hide is designed to feel like a world away. Designed by John Burgess, it offers just a handful of elegant rooms built on the ideals of barefoot luxury (our favourite kind). Minimalist yet luxurious and deeply considered, Hide delivers a modern spin on the wellness retreat, with personalised service at its core.
