Full Description

Nestled on the edge of Lake Wānaka, The Sauna Wānaka is a lakeside wellness experience designed to reconnect you with nature, calm your mind, and revitalize your body.

Our hand-crafted sauna sits on the lakefront, offering sweeping mountain views and the unique opportunity to combine hot and cold therapy in one of New Zealand’s most breathtaking settings. Step into the warmth of the cedar-lined sauna, let the natural heat ease your muscles, and then plunge straight into the icy waters of Lake Wānaka for a refreshing dip. This contrast, known as hot/cold therapy, boosts circulation, reduces stress, and leaves you feeling truly alive....
