It won't be right any of those ways because it's improper. It's a lazy way of talking that people try to translate into writing. In order for it to be proper you would have to finish the sentence. e.g. Get away from me, I told him get away from me, etc. But if you really want to write it just type "get away" I guess.

Honestly, my secret (get-a-way????) is the place I am most comfortable: My room.

That is incorrect. A getaway can be a place for instance a honeymoon on a secluded island.

No, it isn't improper at all, but your question can't be answered properly without knowing what the statement or question is.
