At The Cottages at Lake Hayes, the spa comes to you! Your expert therapist will come to your Cottage with a heated massage table, sheets, a selection of warmed Indulge Signature Massage Oil Blends, hot towels and music to create a relaxing spa-like environment. Enjoy your massage in the comfort of your own Cottage with the lakeview in the distance and your private hot tub to enjoy afterwards.

The Cottages at Lake Hayes are located close to a variety of day spas in Arrowtown, Frankton, and Queentown Central. The Spa at Milbrook is just a short 8 minute drive away and is renowned for its serene ambiance and signature treatments such as facials, body wraps, and massage therapies. In Frankton, you can visit Moss Spa or head into Queenstown Central to visit The Body Sanctum or newly open Well Spa.

While most of our guests like to take to the hiking and cycling tracks for exercise, the Frankton area boasts a number of facilities for those who love to have an active holiday. Try a reformer pilates or fitness class at Align Pilates or visit the swimming pool and gym at Alpine Fitness Centre just a few minutes away. Milbrook also offers a day pass for fitness facility usage which includes sauna and hot pools.

If you're looking for something more unique, Onsen Hot Pools offers private, Japanese-inspired hot pools with breathtaking views of the Shotover River and surrounding mountains. While not a traditional day spa offering massages or facials, it’s an incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating experience, especially for those who enjoy soaking in a hot bath with scenic views.

Dorothy Brown's Cinema in Arrowtown is a charming, must-do experience for anyone visiting the region. This cosy, boutique cinema offers a unique and intimate movie-watching experience in a beautifully restored historic building. With just a handful of seats, the cinema feels more like a private screening room, making it a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown and a lovely way to unwind. The cinema also has a licensed bar, so you can enjoy a glass of wine or craft beer while watching your film. Oh, and did we mention there’s a Gin Bar attached to it?

Queenstown is a fantastic place for yoga, offering studios like Fierce Grace and Nadi Wellness for all levels. Fierce Grace Queenstown specialises in dynamic hot yoga classes, blending traditional and contemporary styles for a challenging yet rewarding experience. For a more tranquil approach, Nadi Wellness offers a range of yoga styles focused on mindfulness and relaxation, set in a peaceful environment. Both studios provide a perfect way to connect mind, body, and nature while enjoying the stunning Queenstown scenery.
