6 degrees of relaxationSo you’ve been promising yourself for weeks that you’ll take some ‘me time’ and relax?
You’ll find life instantly slows down as you float in naturally hot mineral springs, gazing up at shady trees or the starlit sky.
But that’s just the start...
Masseurs at day spas and luxury spa retreats quickly turn tension into bliss. Perhaps finding the right pair of shoes is more to your liking?
Therapy comes in all shapes and sizes on the Mornington Peninsula.
Sure, relaxing at a day spa can allow us to
de-stress and reflect on life... but there’s
also something to be said about the soothing
benefits of a good shopping expedition!
More than 20 globally-inspired bathing experiences set in a beautiful natural environment have won Peninsula Hot Springs the World’s Best Mineral Springs Award in 2014 and 2015.
Peninsula Hot Springs grew from the vision of founder Charles Davidson, who spent more than 10 years searching for naturally heated spring waters near Rye after discovering Japan’s outdoor hot springs during a snowy winter.
And the World Luxury Spa Awards say he’s created a global winner. While influenced by the best international spa traditions, Peninsula Hot Springs is true to its own natural environment. Subtle landscaping follows the natural contours of sand dunes, and healing hot water cascades down the hillside through bathing pools to a lake.
The Springs has also captured more than 20 of the world’s best experiences in the social Bath House, including Moroccan steam treatments, hot stone massages, a traditional Turkish Haman, reflexology walk, sauna and cold plunge pool.
In the luxurious Spa Dreaming Centre with its tranquil spaces and private pools, treatments embrace Indigenous practices and ‘Peninsula Senses’, a new range of exclusive products featuring local botanicals and ingredients including Manuka honey.
Two dining options complete your spa experience from early morning to early evening: the Spa Dreaming Centre Café and the Bath House Café.
• Enjoy the 360 degree views from the Hilltop pool;• Scrub yourself (or a friend) in the Turkish Hamam - now available in both the Bath House and Spa Dreaming Centre;• Indulge with an indigenous-inspired treatment or one that uses local ingredients such a Manuka honey or red wine grapes;• Relax in the hydrojet pool and listen to the sounds of the frogs from the lake nearby;• Reconnect with a couples bathing session and a delicious and healthy meal in the Spa Dreaming Centre Café.
