Indulge in world class beauty and relaxation treatments and experience pure bliss amongst the rainforest at the new Spa Anise at Spicers Tamarind Retreat.

The luxury property near Maleny in the Sunshine Coast hinterland has launched its eagerly anticipated destination day spa, a sanctuary where guests can experience complete relaxation and wellness treatments in the ultimate natural setting.

Nestled in Spicers Tamarind’s lush grounds and surrounded by stunning subtropical gardens, the purpose built facility features four treatment rooms and a state of the art hydrotherapy room complete with a therapeutic spa, rain shower and steam room with water sourced on site from a deep mineral spring – all overlooking the forest.

Three treatment rooms are twin bedded to enable couples to experience a wellness treatment together. Spacious timber windows slide back and open on to rainforest views, inviting the outdoors inside. The facility also has a single treatment room which offers disabled access.

Spa Anise treatments range from 60 minutes to a five hour total indulgence package which includes lunch with champagne. For the ultimate pampering, indulge in its signature treatment, the Lush Lemongrass body ritual.

After treatment, guests can relax even further in a well-appointed post treatment room featuring a lounge, fireplace and a large covered deck area complete with a refreshment station. Here, guests can sample world-class Spa cuisine, listen to the birds and the gentle flow of the nearby creek and soak in the enchanting beauty of one of Queensland’s most breathtaking destinations.
