Mornington Peninsula spa retreats opens to open luxury accommodation

by Ruth Hogan

Mornington Peninsula wellness retreat Alba Thermal Springs and Spa is soon set to open a new luxury stay option for guests in an expansion into villa style accommodation.

The Sanctuary features five standalone villas, along with two studio rooms, perched at the highpoint of the 15-hectare property.

Designed as an intimate retreat amidst native bushland, with interiors crafted by local designer Kate Walker of KWD in Mt Martha, each villa features a soft palette of muted colours and offers views across the peninsula.

Rooms are furnished with premium Aesop amenities and guests can enjoy a complimentary mini bar stocked with wines from Ten Minutes by Tractor, specialty brews from St Andrew’s Beach Brewery, and Illy coffee, and select their preferences from a pillow menu.

“An on-site accommodation offering has been part of the development plan for Alba Thermal Springs and Spa from the very beginning,” said Alba’s General Manager, Craig Dodd.

“With the success of our bathing, spa, and dining experiences, we are thrilled to welcome guests overnight and for weekend stays, especially from interstate and overseas visitors who many wish to explore the region for a number of days.”

Set within landscaped grounds, Alba offers a world-class thermal springs and day spa sanctuary and features contemporary bathing and spa experiences, including indoor, open-air, and outdoor thermal pools.

All-day dining is available at Thyme restaurant, located in the Alba spa complex or in-room,  with menus by renowned chef Karen Martini
