Recovery is possible.
You don't have to do it alone.
Many of us arrive in recovery carrying challenges related to housing, finances, relationships, employment, or other areas of life affected by alcohol and drug use. These things take time to work through, and meaningful change rarely happens overnight. What you will discover, however, is that you do not have to navigate this journey alone.
By staying connected to the recovery community, attending meetings, and building relationships with mentors and sponsors, you gain access to a wealth of shared experience, encouragement, and understanding. With time, patience, and support, you can begin to rebuild confidence, strengthen important relationships, and create a fulfilling life in recovery.
Recovery is also a new experience for the people who care about you. Be patient with yourself and those around you. Give it time.

Accommodation
Along with our purpose-built kitchen and eating areas, we have a 20-bed accommodation section. The accommodation section includes fully accessible rooms and facilities for people with a disability.
Most guests will be sharing a room. There are some single rooms with ensuites but access to those will depend on their availability when you book.
Healthy Eating
Eating healthy is an integral part of the program. Delicious healthy meals and snacks will be provided from our purpose-built catering kitchen. Provision for food allergies is available upon request.
Meals are eaten in our shared communal spaces, the dining room or the outside terrace. On Sundays, you'll share a BBQ on the lawn with family and friends.
Meeting Areas
The Sydney Retreat facility includes several beautiful purpose-built meeting areas. These warm and comfortable meeting areas are a feature of the facility and will allow you to fully engage in the daily program.
Our recovery model encourages many connections with people from the recovery community, so we have meetings, standard rooms, and breakout areas for group gatherings and one-on-one conversations.
