Coming Soon: Peninsula Hot Springs' New Luxury Eco Lodges Have Their Own Geothermal Baths with Wetland Views
You can either spend your whole stay relaxing around lodge, or mix it up by dipping in and out some of the property's other thermal pools.
Peninsula Hot Springs just keeps getting bigger and better. Back in 2018, it received a massive $13 million upgrade, which saw the addition of several hot and cold pools, and a hilltop bathhouse amphitheatre. In 2020, luxury glamping facilities landed on the property.
And now, a couple of years after scoring a cool $3.3 million investment from the Regional Tourism Investment Fund (RTIF), the crew is ready to unveil its new Eco Lodges in early November this year.
These will each feature a plush 60-square-metre suite complete with wifi, room service, a mini bar, and split-system heating and cooling. One thing that makes these accommodations so special is the dedication to giving guests a damn good night's sleep. Each room has self-guided sleep wellness content like sound and movement experiences, plus sleep masks and mineral salts.
Co-founder and Creative Director of Peninsula Hot Springs Charles Davidson notes how "Wellness is a holistic and multidimensional feeling of wholeness and happiness, of which sleep is a quintessential factor. Understanding that humans spend a third of their lives asleep, it was important to us to create an environment in which guests can achieve cathartic release through our extensive wellness programs.
"Our Eco Lodges have been designed with our seven pillars of wellness in mind to ensure our guests leave feeling rejuvenated and restored."
Each Eco Lodge also opens out onto its own garden and private hot spring bathing pool that looks out over the surrounding wetlands. Usually, you'd need to share the property's large geothermal pools with others, so this private experience is an absolute win.
Nonetheless, if you do want to jump around the other natural hot spring pools, your stay includes unlimited access to all of them. Both guests also get a complimentary wellness session and buffet breakfast each morning.
This is some next-level treat-yourself stuff, so expect to pay handsomely for it. Rooms within the Eco Lodges sleep two adults, with accommodation and bathing packages starting at $880.
The new Peninsula Hot Springs Eco Lodges will open in early November 2024. For more details, visit the venue's website.
