Set among lush tropical gardens, it’s easily one of the most beautiful spaces in town, designed to help you slow down both physically and mentally.

Downstairs, four treatment rooms sit within a seamless indoor-outdoor setting, with a bamboo-framed, pavilion-style welcome area where guests can relax and fill out their consultation form.

Each treatment room has two massage beds and a large window overlooking the rainforest, with soft natural light filtering across the space.

The experience begins with a choice of three massage oils, inspired by Ayurvedic principles; air, fire and earth. 

It’s an approach that reflects the spa’s broader philosophy: no two treatments are the same, and no two therapists work in exactly the same way.

Each practitioner brings their own area of expertise, shaped by different training and backgrounds, from Reiki and yoga to Kahuna and Ayurvedic techniques. 

For massage therapist Eli, that speciality lies in Ayurveda.

“The oil scent people choose gives me a sense of the person I’m working with,” she explains. 

“Based on the dosha, you can understand what the person needs and what treatment will suit them best.”

Originally from Capri in Italy, Eli has spent more than twelve years working as a massage therapist in Port Douglas. 

She began her training at 18 and has since built her skills across a range of techniques, eventually focusing on Ayurvedic massage and its connection to both the physical and emotional body.

Eli’s treatments draw on a mix of influences, including advanced facial massage techniques developed in Japan and Europe, an area she’s particularly passionate about and has made her speciality.

Eli’s approach is hands-on and technique-driven, working through the muscles of the face to boost circulation, support lymphatic drainage and encourage natural collagen production.

There’s something almost artistic in the way she works. Her movements are fluid, almost choreographed, with the shapes of her hands becoming quietly hypnotic as they guide the body into deeper relaxation.

“What I really enjoy is seeing the shift in a person,” she says. 

“You can feel it during and after the treatment. Clients become more relaxed, more energised, and more connected to themselves.

“Especially in this day and age, people keep going and never really stop. Having a massage is a moment for yourself to stop and relax. 

“It’s so important for your focus, your physical health and your mental health.”

That focus on individuality and care runs through the entire spa, creating an experience that feels considered, personal and deeply restorative.
