PURE LUXE
The place: Voted best destination spa in Australia, Ikatan Balinese Day Spa is set on an acreage just a few minutes outside of Noosa. Truly tranquil, it boasts gorgeous Balinese gardens and villa-style treatment rooms that truly embrace nature – slightly redolent of a traditional Balinese village. Set deep within the trees, their air-conditioned treatment rooms and open-air pavilions are mini paradises within a paradise. You feel deeply relaxed almost straight away.
The experience: Go all out with a Retreat Day Package, which includes yoga, meditation, meals and spa treatments. Alternatively, opt for the Kharma Rejuvenation Package which includes a coconut scrub and skin wrap followed by an hour-long Balinese massage and personalised anti-ageing facial, ending with lunch and tea in the garden, and a deluxe pedicure.
