Deśa Retreat is a rare coastal sanctuary in Jan Juc, Victoria.

Comprising a main residence, dedicated yoga studio, two private guest villas, and a self-contained tiny house, the property has been purpose-built for wellness and transformative retreat experiences.
Operating since 2016, Deśa offers a boutique respite and retreat program that blends therapeutic support, yoga, sound healing, and nature immersion in a setting of genuine beauty and care. Lush landscaped grounds weave the structures together into a cohesive whole — a place where guests feel truly held, restored, and returned to themselves.
