Parohe Island Retreat

Parohe means relax. We are a wellness retreat on Kawau Island, only 50 minutes from Auckland’s CBD. We are secluded and sheltered by the harbourside and surrounded by a native forest amphitheatre.

Our Signature Relax, Rejuvenate or new Resilience Retreats include all meals, daily movement , access to Parohe’s picturesque walking trails, land and water activities, and wellness facilities which include massage, swimming pool, outdoor baths and the sauna. The Couples Retreat has all the Signature features plus a romantic dinner picnic, a dessert making class and a Latin dance class.

Getaways are a Weekend Off. Usually over long holiday weekend but available all year, for you and your family & friends. Minimum 6 people for 3 nights.
