- In an era quickly being defined by high-end communal bathhouses, Soak Bathhouse Alexandria is staking its claim in Sydney this May.
- The sprawling 700-square-metre facility will house magnesium-rich mineral pools (34°C), hot spas (38°C), cold plunge pools (12.5°C), and plenty more.
- Later in the year, Soak Bathhouse is also on track to debut its Bondi Junction outpost.
Riding the recent tide of luxurious health and wellness spaces materialising all along Australia’s east coast, Soak Bathhouse Alexandria has now arrived.
Initially announced alongside the Queensland-born franchise’s Bondi Junction outpost (which arrives later this year), this hotly anticipated, 700sqm facility promises to deliver the award-winning rest and relaxation that’s steadily become synonymous with the Soak name.
You’ll find this mecca of tranquillity in the new $230 million Bourke & Bowden development – just four kilometres from Sydney’s CBD – where one can enjoy magnesium-rich mineral pools (34°C), hot spas (38°C), cold plunge pools (12.5°C); along with a dry cedarwood sauna and a steam room.
An infrared sauna, LED red light therapy, and of course, massages will also be available here.
“Our Urban Oasis is the perfect way to slow down and prioritise your wellbeing – without leaving the city.”
In recent years, the wellness landscape certainly feels like it’s been defined by communal bathhouses. Aside from the forthcoming Bondi Junction location of Soak Bathhouse, in a few short months, the cult Melbourne franchise Sense of Self will look to stake its own claim in Sydney with the city’s biggest facility of its kind.
Located on the border of Paddington and Surry Hills, Sense of Self Sydney has made itself at home in a 1,000-square-metre converted warehouse, and will similarly offer mineral pools (39°C), roomy saunas (80°C), plus a Hammam steam room (46°C).
Much like Soak, you’ll also be able to bring your core temperature back down with a 10°C cold plunge. How bloody good.
Soak Bathhouse Alexandria offers an Early Bird Soak from $39, Soak from $59, Soak & Sip Package from $79, as well as a Soak Essentials Package from $89. Find out more below.
