Coming Soon: Popular Queensland Spa Brand Soak Bathhouse Is Launching Two New Wellness Retreats in the Heart of Sydney
Located in Bondi Junction and Alexandria, these luxe temples of self-care will feature magnesium pools, cold plunges, saunas and massage therapists.
Any Brisbanite or Gold Coaster who takes relaxation seriously will be familiar with Soak Bathhouse. These lush day spas offer an escape from the white-knuckle hustle of daily life, banishing stress with a suite of facilities including magnesium baths, invigorating plunge pools, soothing saunas, and a laundry list of treatments and massages designed to enliven and revive the skin and senses.
Now, the brand is expanding its footprint beyond Queensland, with not one but two new state-of-the-art day spas in central Sydney. If the renders are anything to go by, these temples of zen will set a new gold standard for pampering in the Harbour City when the Bondi Junction outpost opens in December, followed by the Alexandria site in April, 2025.
In Bondi Junction, guests will be able to indulge in a dip in two large mineral baths and three thermal spas, followed by a good sweat in the sauna and steam rooms, and a bracing leap into the chilled plunge pool. Then it's off to the private treatment rooms for a deep tissue massage, an LED facial, an exfoliating scrub or one of the other numerous therapies on offer.
When the Bondi location on Ebley Street was announced in September, it was set to become Soak's biggest bathhouse to date. However, that laurel has been swiftly snatched by the Alexandria outpost, which will be spread over a sprawling 700-square-metre development.
Much like its Bondi Junction sister, the Alexandria Soak Bathhouse will feature marble-clad magnesium pools heated to a pleasant 34 degrees Celsius, hot spas with bubble jets, plunge pools, a dry cedar wood sauna and a steam room. Once you're done using the communal bathing areas, you can slip into a solitary moment of bliss with one of the private therapies, such as infrared sauna sessions, LED facial treatments and expertly delivered massages.
Lush planting throughout both spas — a signature of the Queensland venues — also helps conjure a sense of serenity and calm. Self-care doesn't get much better than this.
