With a 20-year reputation, loyal clientele, extensive infrastructure & a three-bedroom on-site residence, it’s a rare, fully realised opportunity designed for discerning guests & forward-thinking operators alike. Whether you’re an entrepreneur ready to step into the wellness space, an investor seeking a distinctive & established asset, or a health professional looking for a ready-to-run spa environment, this property delivers unrivalled opportunity.

Mineral Springs Bathing
Here, guests can immerse in healing mineral waters heated to 37–39°C. Three onsen-style mineral pools, naturally sourced from 80 metres below ground, create a deeply restorative experience, complemented by a larger pool for broader guest use. Each bathing zone is private & secluded with a lounge pod & change room. Think walled rock pools, soft steam drifting upward, & the quiet interplay of water & stone. It’s a premium, highly unique offering that blends authenticity with exclusivity, setting this property apart from conventional hot spring venues.

Spa de Marrakech Day Spa
A destination within the destination, the day spa introduces a rich, sensory layer to the business. The Roman Bathhouse is the only one of its kind in Australia & replicates the experience of the opulent bathhouses of Dubai with a high domed ceiling, surrounded by exotic marble floors & mosaics, while the Steam Temple offers a cocoon of warmth & calm. Three breathtaking treatment rooms are designed for both solo & couples’ experiences, multiple bathrooms, a welcoming reception area & a relaxing guest lounge. It’s a space designed for indulgence, retreat & repeat bookings.

Accommodation
Three Japanese-style suites, each with traditional Japanese hot tubs, are positioned within the gardens, offering peaceful, self-contained stays with birdsong & filtered light. The Balinese-inspired villa is tucked away with a private lake outlook & a lounge area, designed for two couples, small groups or a family, & enriched with custom imported design elements.

Restaurant & Dining
The restaurant & bar provide an indoor-outdoor dining experience that shifts from relaxed daytime service to romantic evenings under the stars. Framed by lush lawn & forest views, it’s a natural gathering place for guests & a key driver for events, functions & curated dining experiences.

The Grounds
The grounds are a visual feast. Two lakes create ever-changing reflections & focal points throughout the property. Expanses of lawn & secluded garden zones offer space to wander, while Japanese & tropical plantings create layers of texture & privacy throughout. Multiple rainwater tanks support ongoing sustainability.

Operations & Infrastructure
A full commercial kitchen, commercial laundry, cool room, storage for guest supplies, plus a dedicated reception & office ensure the business runs efficiently behind the scenes. With off-street parking for at least 20 vehicles, the capacity for group bookings, retreats & events is well considered.

Residence/Caretaker Accommodation
For those looking to live on-site or manage with ease, the separate residence delivers comfort without compromise. Comprising three bedrooms (including a generously sized main with ensuite), two bathrooms & open plan living/meals, it’s centred around a stone waterfall kitchen & enhanced by privacy windows that maintain separation from guest zones.
