Experience Ultimate Relaxation On The Gold Coast

07 Oct 2021

The Gold Coast is a mecca for rest and relaxation. Beautiful beaches, sea breezes, walkways winding through the rainforest, eateries with 180-degree ocean views, we’ve got it all. Not to mention zen-inducing bathhouses, float tanks and yoga studios, so you can soak, stretch and destress your way to the most blissful holiday experience of your life.

PURE ALOHA

Is there anything more synonymous with the Gold Coast than stand-up paddle boarding? How about yoga on a stand-up paddle board with Pure Aloha? Sounds tricky but is absolutely the most fun you can have while exercising. Plus, if you fall you land in the crystal-clear waters of Tallebudgera Creek. A definite must-try.
Where: Awoonga Avenue, Burleigh Heads

SOAK BATHHOUSE

Found in the heart of Mermaid Beach, Soak Bathhouse recently joined the local wellness lineup with rave reviews. This gorgeous Gold Coast bathhouse features mineral pools, saunas, a (very) cold plunge pool, spa, sundeck and options for massages and LED facials. So plenty of excellent reasons to extend your session in this stunning space. Opt for the Soak & Sip package to enjoy a tipple or two with your R&R.
