Nourish
Pilates and Wellness Retreat
October 24th – 26th 2026
So, your Labour Weekend plans just landed in the group chat. –
“Hey friends… what are we doing for Labour Weekend?”
“We should definitely get away this year.”
If you’ve got a group of friends who love Pilates, good food, coffee, beach walks, saunas and a weekend that actually leaves you feeling amazing, this is your sign to lock it in.
Two nights on the Tutukaka Coast.
Beautiful accommodation.
Every meal lovingly prepared for you.
A balance of movement, relaxation and plenty of time to simply enjoy yourself.
Book a shared room, bring your favourite people and let us take care of everything else.
Coming on your own?
You’re in good company.
Some guests arrive with lifelong friends.
Others leave with them.
Whether you come with your favourite people or leave having met some new ones, you’ll be welcomed into a relaxed, down-to-earth group where everyone is there for exactly the same reason—to enjoy a weekend that feels good.
A long weekend you'll feel good about on Monday.
Nourish Retreat Experience
What’s included?
Your weekend has been intentionally designed with a balance of guided experiences and genuine downtime. There’ll be beautiful moments together and plenty of space to simply do your own thing.
Included in your experience:
• Two nights shared accommodation in the main lodge, Saturday morning through to Monday midday. Rooms are allocated by the hosts. *upgrades available
• Daily Mat Pilates sessions
• Guided hot and cold therapy experience
• Sauna and hot tub access
• Plenty of free time to read, nap, swim, explore coastal walks or simply relax
• All meals lovingly prepared for you
• Wellness workshops delivering inspiration you can take home and use
Expect a great balance of activity and rest and a whole lot of being looked after.
Food that nourishes more than your body.
One of the things people remember most about Bluewater is the feeling of being completely looked after.
From the moment you arrive, you can put your bags down and simply… stop.
No meal planning.
No grocery shopping.
No cooking.
No dishes.
Every meal is lovingly prepared by Julianne, whose cooking somehow manages to nourish your body while also feeling like a big warm hug.
It’s the kind of food that’s fresh, vibrant and wholesome—but never feels like “health food.”
It’s generous.
Comforting.
Beautifully prepared.
Shared around a table with wonderful people.
Sometimes that’s exactly the nourishment we didn’t realise we needed.
How you’ll feel when you head home.
You’ll probably leave with a few sandy shoes.
A full camera roll.
A few new friends.
Maybe a favourite new recipe.
But more than anything…
You’ll leave remembering what it feels like to genuinely feel good.
To wake up with energy.
To move with ease.
To breathe a little deeper.
To laugh a little more.
To remember that looking after yourself doesn’t have to feel like another thing on the to-do list.
It can simply feel… good.
