Bali Retreat

Recharge, Connect & Explore Bali

A transformative retreat in the healing heart of Bali.

Wake to the soft glow of sunrise over the ocean, a warm breeze brushing your skin as you sip your morning coffee on your private terrace. Here at Neano Escape, time moves differently — slower, softer — inviting you to reconnect with your inner calm.

Perched on a lush hillside overlooking the sea, this retreat is designed for the woman ready to restore balance, awaken joy, and remember who she is beneath the noise. Each day blends exploration, healing, and stillness — a seamless dance between Bali’s natural beauty and its sacred traditions.

Mornings take you into the island’s vibrant culture — visiting ancient temples, wandering through Ubud’s colourful markets, or walking along jungle paths and waterfalls. Afternoons are slower and more inward — YIN yoga, Balinese massage, sound healing, and guided workshops help you integrate your experiences and open space for deep transformation.

You’ll experience Bali’s renowned healing modalities — from the vibrational resonance of sound journeys at the Pyramids of Chi to the gentle purification rituals at holy water temples — creating moments that restore harmony to your body, mind, and spirit.

Evenings gather us around long-table dinners beneath the stars, where nourishing meals and soulful conversation flow freely. One special night, we step beyond the resort to savour the island’s flavours and celebrate together.

With a small group of ten women, this retreat feels intimate, personal, and deeply connected. You’ll leave Bali not only refreshed, but realigned — carrying a practical plan to integrate peace, purpose, and presence into your everyday life.

This isn’t just a retreat — it’s a return to yourself through the healing magic of Bali.

With love and light,
Steph

Foundations to Thrive Workshop

Facilitated by your host, Stephanie, this gentle yet transformative workshop is the soulful core of every Thrive retreat.

Woven into the slower moments of your journey—often poolside, journal in hand, under the open sky—this experience offers a chance to pause, reflect, and realign.

Together, we explore four foundational pillars of life:

  • Health & Vitality
  • Relationships
  • Finance & Stability
  • Self & Soul

Through guided meditation, reflective journal prompts these sessions gently reveal what’s ready to shift—within and around you.

This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about remembering who you are beneath the noise.

You’ll leave with a personalised game plan and a renewed connection to your inner truth—feeling centred, empowered, and more aligned with the life you’re here to live.

You’ll be invited into this space intuitively, during the quieter pockets of your retreat.

About Your Host – Steph

For over 13 years, Steph has been guiding small group retreats around the world — from the wilds of Africa to the turquoise waters of the Maldives, and sacred spaces in Sri Lanka, Fiji, and beyond. Her background in luxury travel means every detail is thoughtfully curated — but it’s her heart-led approach that sets her journeys apart.

After years of running successful travel businesses and non-stop globetrotting, life invited her to slow down and go inward. She spent two years living in & out of Bali — healing, unlearning, and reconnecting to herself through stillness, culture, and the wisdom of the land.

It was there, with tears in her eyes and joy in her heart, that she knew: this is where she would bring women together.

Now based in Byron Bay, Australia’s wellness hub, Steph created Thrive Collection — a purpose-led retreat company designed for women ready to reconnect, explore, and come home to themselves.

Steph’s gift lies in creating space: space to rest, to adventure, to grow. She gently encourages you to step out of your comfort zone — because that’s where the magic lives. And in that space, something beautiful always unfolds.

This is more than a retreat. It’s a soul-deep experience that stays with you long after the bags are unpacked.
