Noosa Springs Spa
Perhaps you’re looking for a peaceful floatation pool enriched with magnesium salt... or, maybe you're craving a health retreat in the rolling hinterland hills. On the other hand, you could be longing for a solo escape, replete with an outdoor copper bath and a private ceramic workshop.
Whatever it is you’re craving, we hope you can find some bliss in this compilation of five of our favourite wellness experiences on the Sunshine Coast.
Noosa Springs Spa (part of Noosa Springs Golf and Spa Resort)
Luxury is the name of the game at Noosa Springs Spa. Located only 3km from Noosa’s famous Hastings Street, this is the perfect central spot for a holiday rejuvenation session. Recline back amongst the propulsive jets of their hydromassage pool, close your eyes as warm basalt stones are gently applied to your skin, or enjoy a moment of glamour with a detailed pedicure. For the ultimate day of relaxation, opt for their ‘Spacation’ package, which includes treatment options like a full-body massage and a dead sea mud wrap – all topped off with a glass of sparkling wine.
If you opt for the Golf and Spa package, you can combine putting greens with relaxation. Tee-off at the championship Noosa Springs Golf course for nine picturesque holes, before making your way to the spa for a soothing Thermal Suite Experience.
Living Valley Health Retreat
Keen to extend your wellness experience for a few days longer? Look no further than the range of health retreats offered by Living Valley in Kin Kin – part of the Sunshine Coast’s lush hinterland. There’s something here to suit everyone – whether you’re looking for a two-week detox filled with delicious organic food, Pilates, and cleansing juices, or even a ‘Healthy Holiday’ package, where you’ll settle in for seven-nights of accommodation, plus a revitalising schedule of stretch classes, an optional sunrise adventure at Noosa National Park, daily steam baths and more.
Even though you’ll be located amongst rolling hills and bushland, you won’t be too far from civilisation – the retreat is less than a 45-minute drive from Noosa’s iconic Hastings Street.
Atelier34 Solo Woman Retreat
Atelier34 Solo Woman Retreat
Alone, but not lonely! That’s the beauty of the solo getaway offering by creative workshop hub, Atelier34. Nestled amongst the Sunshine Coast hinterland (and just a 15-minute-drive from the Eumundi Markets), this special retreat has been designed for a woman wanting to experience a rejuvenating private retreat. This is the time to get started on the manuscript you’ve always wanted to write, to read a good book in front of the fireplace, and to let your worries slip away with a warm soak in an outdoor copper tub.
If you’re keen to unleash your inner creative, you can also choose from a range of gorgeous extras to enhance your experience. We’re talking a one-on-one ceramic workshop with a local clay artist, or a ZenThai Shiatsu massage.
A room of one’s own never looked so good.
Ikatan Spa, Noosa
Ikatan Day Spa, Noosa
This Balinese-style day spa is the ultimate experience in eco-friendly luxury.
Located in Doonan (just a short drive from Noosa), Ikatan Spa Noosa celebrates all things green. From its anti-plastic philosophy, all the way through to the lush tropical gardens surrounding the spa, sustainability plays a starring role in creating Ikatan’s soothing environment. Whether you’re in the mood for their signature Balinese massage, a body scrub, or an 8-hour day retreat filled with yoga, healthy meals and treatments... there’s something to appeal to every preference.
While children and pets aren’t allowed, it’s worth noting that Ikatan offers a special range of ‘Teen Spa Treatments’ (to be accompanied by an adult) that feature facials, massages and foot therapy.
Tank Bathhouse
Tank Bathhouse, Mooloolaba
On the lookout for an out-of-the-box wellness experience? Then check out the Tank Bathhouse! This place offers an array of luxurious fun – be it facial treatments, champagne river cruises and bathhouse relaxation.
If you opt for the bathhouse package, you can expect a one-hour entry into the array of six Botanical Infused Magnesium Baths – all of which range in temperature. You’ll also receive a complimentary towel, water-bottle and locker hire for valuables. Once you’ve soaked up all the therapeutic botanicals, and enjoyed the Moroccan-inspired wet steam room, be sure to extend your stay at the waterfront restaurant and savour a cocktail or two.
Tank Farm at Bli Bli will be re-opening on the 1st December, 2023 after undergoing renovations.
To avoid disappointment, we advise checking in with the Tank Bathhouse ahead of planning any experiences.
