I remember a casual encounter with Olivia Newton-John many years ago while living in Malibu. It is through this remarkable adversity and desire for wellness that Olivia Newton-John helped create a spectacular health retreat in the Bunjalung Country of Byron Bay often known as the healing heartland of Australia. Gaia Retreat & Spa is positioned on the highest point in the area with its wide-ranging views and completely sustainable design. Founded in 2005, owners Gregg Cave, Ruth Kalnin, Olivia Newton-John, and Warwick Evans, helped launch the retreat as a shared dream. Gaia Retreat & Spa has established itself as Australia’s most awarded boutique lifestyle resort including winning the World Traveler Award this week for Australasia's Leading Boutique Hotel.
