The spa boasts a 16-metre infinity pool, with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the outdoor hot tub and landscaped garden.
There’s also a wallow pool, aroma room and heat experience showers. If you’re not expecting yet, there’s a hydrotherapy pool, sauna, and steam room. For more energetic mums-to-be, a state of the art gymnasium awaits and there are 10 treatment rooms.
Treatments
Mums-to-be can choose from an extensive range of treatments, but if you and your bump need a bit of extra TLC then the Precious Moments extended maternity treatment is ideal. Positioned on your side, with a pillow to support your bump, this treatment works on your entire body, using delicate ingredients to maintain skin tone and elasticity. You’ll enjoy a back and shoulder massage followed by an intensive leg and foot rub. To finish, a soothing ‘Reviver’ facial hydrates and balances your skin.
