An Illustrated Overview of Parohe

This map offers a general outline of Parohe Island Retreat.

Shaped as an ampitheatre, flagged by surrounding, native bush and nestled against the coastline, with plenty of flat land suitable for a marquee.

Accommodation is dotted around the property, whether you have rented the 10 eco-luxe Scandinavian-inspired cabins, cabanas, rustic-chic Honeymoon Cottage, or the executive Villa.

Enchantment is the central socialising hub. Bush enclosed with all-day sun, a protected area which is home of the Pavilion studio, which has a wrap-around dining and activity deck with an adjacent kitchen. 

You will also find the Wellness Hub at Enchantment, with outdoor baths, massage, and sauna overlooking a natural pond. Follow the Glade Path to discover the outdoor gym area and yoga platform.
