Welcome to The Lodge at Awaken Retreats

The Lodge at Awaken Retreats has been created with a passionate regard for environmental & wildlife conservation and is the perfect destination for a romantic getaway, special occasions or simply a mid-week break.

The retreat provides a generous breakfast including fresh fruit, cereals, pastries, bread, organic teas, organic juices and Whitsunday Gold coffee and we can also serve gluten free meals as per request.

We strive to protect the delicate & precious environment and respect the ecosystem of the property. We are carefully and progressively improving the land to return to its natural condition and we are also providing animals a safe passage to their habitat.

The entire retreat is designed to be modernly sustainable. Our building materials have been chosen based on their sustainability & environment impact and we also use energy efficient compact fluorescent or LED lighting along with solar powered lighting for pathways and stairways. We minimise our water usage by using water saving devices such as shower heads and smart flush toilets.

The Lodge at Awaken Retreats is owned by Gordon Lockie - a registered breeder of the cockatoos and has a collection of endangered species in Australia. These rare species are well taken cared of and my breeding program ensures that they are not lost and can be enjoyed by visitors to our retreat.
