Overview
As it stands, Mornington Peninsula's Alba Thermal Springs & Spa is already epic — home to over 30 geothermal pools scattered across its 15-hectare property.
But one of Melbourne's best spas and natural hot springs destinations is about to get a whole lot better, having just announced plans to build five new luxury villas and two studio rooms on the dunes overlooking the estate.
Slated to open in early 2025, these new accommodations — collectively known as The Sanctuary — will have their interiors designed by Kate Walker of KWD in Mt Martha, and feature a heap of top-tier amenities.
Get around Aesop products, a pillow menu, and a complimentary mini-bar stocked with wines from Ten Minutes by Tractor, specialty brews from St Andrew's Beach Brewery and Illy coffee.
Those wanting breakfast onsite can head to the spa's Thyme or have it delivered to their room — eating in bed (or on the balcony) while looking out over the property and surrounding dunes.
A night's stay in one of the private villas starts at $950, and a night in one of the rooms starts at $650. You can then add on spa treatments and hot springs access to make it a truly indulgent night or weekend away.
The Sanctuary at Alba Thermal Springs & Spa is slated to open in early 2025, and can be found at 282 Browns Road, Fingal. For more information, you can check out the venue's website.
