Perth is indeed a relaxed city, so why not go all out with a relaxing day spa experience?
If you can manage to drag yourself away from Perth’s incredible beaches, book yourself into one of its premier day spas. From complete luxury experiences with premium skincare products, to holistic wellness journeys including sound healing and meditation, Perth has a diverse mix of incredible day spas. Here are eight of our favourites.
If you’re looking for the ultimate luxury pampering experience in Perth, you really can’t go past the Crown Spa at Perth’s Crown Towers. The spa treatments include rejuvenating facials with La Prairie products, soothing body treatments and relaxing massages. The spa also has an Aqua Retreat, which includes a sauna, therapeutic rain shower and vitality pool. The real highlight though is the menu of ‘wellness experiences’ – think massage and facial treatments that incorporate meditation, sound healing and yogic pranayama (breath-work). Treatments start from $275.
The Ritz Carlton – one of Perth’s best hotels – happens to be home to a deluxe waterfront spa. Overlooking the Swan River, the spa feels like being immersed in an oasis of calm. The heated outdoor infinity pool offers breathtaking river views, while the separate vitality pools, spa baths, saunas, and relaxation lounges provide a serene place to unwind. The four exquisite treatment rooms – including a couple’s spa suite – offer facials, body treatments, scrubs and wraps and soothing massages. Prices start from approximately $200.
Djurra Lifestyle Salon and Spa in Fremantle offers a variety of treatments, including customised Tulasāra facials, Aveda Aroma massages, and body treatments like the Beautifying Radiance Polish and Rosemary Mint Body Wrap. Djurra has a unique and holistic approach to beauty and wellness, using 100% vegan and mostly naturally derived Aveda products that are non-toxic and environmentally friendly. Prices for treatments start from around $185.
BODHI has become a brand synonymous with relaxation, wellness and quality in Perth. Its multiple spa locations across the city, including one at The Westin, are a testament to its popularity. The spas offer all-natural wellbeing experiences in tranquil surroundings to allow you to slow down and reconnect to yourself. In addition to classic massages, facials and body treatments, BODHI offers luxurious wellness therapies – from infrared saunas to chakra-balancing treatments – and spa journey packages, that can last up to five hours. A particularly impressive one is the Awakening Ritual, a 4.5-hour combination of six luxurious therapies inspired by Indigenous healing to revitalise your body.
Greenhaus Studio is located in well-heeled Claremont, and offers a range of luxury treatments, from organic facials and relaxation massages, to reiki, lymphatic massage and Ayurvedic treatments. What sets this day spa apart is its commitment to sustainability and using 100% natural, organic, and ethically sourced products, handmade in small batches in Australia. Prices start from approximately $180.
Another option for an immersive spa experience is Amaroo Retreat in Perth’s Helena Valley. A 40-minute drive from the city, this award-winning private retreat is secluded in the Perth Hills bushland and features eight luxury chalets, an indulgent day spa and a restaurant and bar. Guests get to enjoy a glass of bubble on arrival, then dive right into their relaxation – whether it’s chilling out on their private deck, indulging in a spa bath with bushland views or getting pampered with one the the spa luxurious packages that include soothing massages, cleansing facials and energising body scrubs and wraps. Prices for accommodation start from $475 per night.
If you’re staying in Fremantle and are keen for some pampering, BodyRiches is a unique wellness centre in the heart of South Fremantle. Entering the venue feels like stepping foot into a tranquil Balinese villa, leaving all your worries at the door. They offer a range of treatments such as classic massage, reflexology, aromatherapy and hot stone massage – but a real stand-out is a treatment in their secret garden. Tucked away at the rear of the spa is a private garden with an outdoor heated spa next to a secluded treatment room – and if you’re travelling with your loved one, they offer ‘date night’ couples treatments in this exquisite garden area.
If you feel like you need more than a few hours of relaxation, then consider an overnight stay at Hidden Valley Eco Lodge. Located in the Perth hills, a 30-minute drive from the city, it’s an adults-only retreat focusing on providing a completely relaxing experience for guests. The accommodation – nestled in a jarrah forest – consists of self-contained lodges featuring private outdoor heated jacuzzis, king-size beds, log fireplaces, and fully equipped kitchens. The on-site day spa offers a range of spa treatments, from body wraps, hot oil elixir and hot stone massages, to deluxe facials and a chocolate indulgence body scrub.
