the adventurer

The Adventurer type loves exploration and new experiences. They’re the one who’s always up for a hike, a camping trip or an overseas holiday that involves a bit of adventure and novelty over your typical sight-seeing. They also value being immersed in nature, and opportunities to observe native trees and wildlife. 

Adventurers enjoy exploring our open-air Bath House, which is home to over 50 globally-inspired bathing rituals. Bath House guests can journey between various true hot spring pools ranging in temperature from thermoneutral to hot, plus cold plunge pools, saunas, a steam room, Reflexology Walk, Hydrojet pool, Hilltop pool and much more.

As they wander the grounds, they’ll also find a variety of unique experiences, such as our large terraced Food Bowl, Gym Beach and Fire & Ice area. They might even like to challenge themselves with a Fire & Ice workshop, where they’ll be guided by a wellness host between the hot and cold of our saunas, cold pool, outdoor showers and ice plunge. 

The Bath House features an abundance of native Mornington Peninsula plants and wildlife, giving Adventurers a deep sense of being surrounded by the natural world.

the seeker

The Seeker is always looking for ways to deepen and expand their experience of the world. They are curious, mindful and interested in activities that enhance their personal growth and connection to their inner landscape. These people are the yogis, meditators and retreat lovers in your life. 

Peninsula Hot Springs has ample opportunities for the kind of spiritual and expansive interactions that appeal to Seekers. Each morning, for example, our Amphitheatre stage comes alive with Hot Springs Yoga — a 20-minute stretching, breathwork and mindfulness ritual that’s complimentary with Bath House entry. 

There is also the Sensory Dome located among the Relaxation Domes, where guests can unwind in the darkness on luxury bean bags, enjoy meditation music and gaze up at a light projection on the ceiling. 

Seekers might like to elevate their bathing journey by adding a wellness activity to their booking: our Body Clay Ritual is a deeply grounding experience where guests apply authentic earth clays to their skin before exfoliating and rinsing off under geothermal mineral showers, while our Studio Yoga class is a 45-minute practice combining dynamic movement and relaxation. 

Or, for an experience that encourages dropping into the deep well of their being, take a look at our Simplicity package, which includes a restorative 45-minute spa treatment of their choice as well as bathing in both areas.

the connoisseur

The Connoisseur is discerning and knows what they like. They appreciate attention to detail, the finer things in life and being treated to curated experiences of luxury, quality and indulgence. 

Connoisseurs feel most at home in our Spa Dreaming Centre, which is our tranquil bathing area and day spa reserved for adults 16 years and over. The Spa Dreaming Centre features several geothermal pools (including the beloved Scandinavian style wooden barrel baths), an infrared sauna and a Moroccan hammam, among other experiences. This area encompasses our day spa, where guests can unwind in the expert hands of our spa therapists. 

The Spa Dreaming Centre also has a dining room where guests can enjoy wholesome meals, light refreshments and local wines in a tranquil atmosphere. Our Dine & Bathe packages, which include a nourishing meal and beverage of their choice plus all-of-site bathing, are popular among Connoisseurs.  

To really indulge a Connoisseur with hot springs gifts, consider our Glamping or Eco Lodge accommodation for an overnight stay. With king-size beds, heated terrazzo floors, room service and, in the case of the Eco Lodges, a private geothermal bath or pool, these beautifully appointed spaces offer the ultimate in wellness tourism and comfort. Accommodation bookings include a buffet breakfast and wellness activity of their choice, and can be further enhanced with dinner bookings and spa treatments.

the beloved

The Beloved is nurturing, kind and sentimental. They value connection and quality time spent together creating memories. Since they give a lot to those around them, Beloveds deserve to be nurtured themselves. 

The Beloved in your life might be your parent or your partner. One of the best Christmas gifts for a Beloved is an experience that combines pampering and opportunities for connection — for example, by sharing a delicious meal or enjoying a spa treatment together. 

Our Tranquillity package includes a 75-minute facial, massage or body treatment, while our Restore package involves a 165-minute spa ritual featuring our signature Botanical Journey (mud wrap, massage and facial). Both include bathing in all areas and can be booked as single or couples’ treatments. 

If you’re choosing a gift for a Beloved romantic partner, they might appreciate the intimacy that comes with our Private Sanctuary and Bathe package, where you can connect in the seclusion of a private outdoor pool or indoor ceramic bath — or even a Private Sanctuary, Bathe and Dine package that also includes a meal in the Spa Dreaming Centre dining room.
