Bawah Reserve, the ultra-remote, eco-luxe paradise that’s only accessible by private seaplane (because of course it is), just got even more indulgent. Enter the newly expanded Aura Wellbeing Sanctuary, a jungle-hidden oasis where sweating, freezing, and feeling absolutely blissed-out are all on the itinerary.
This isn’t your average spa upgrade. It’s a full-blown contrast therapy playground, designed to have you alternating between fiery heat and ice-cold refreshment like a true wellness warrior. Start in the Red Salt Sauna, where temperatures climb to a toasty 82°C, melting away toxins and stress like butter on a Bawah beach. Or opt for the Steam Room, a pore-purifying, muscle-relaxing misty haven set at a gentle 38°C (that’s still hot to us) or a sweat-dripping 48°C for the hardcore detoxers.
Then, just when you’re feeling all warm and fuzzy, it’s time for the Polar Room; a brisk 16°C sensory jolt that wakes up circulation, tightens skin, and reminds you what being truly alive feels like. And if you want to take things to the next level, the Ice Plunge Pool at a frosty 12°C delivers the ultimate endorphin rush, soothing sore muscles and leaving you buzzing with post-chill euphoria.
With Bawah’s signature all-inclusive spa treatments already part of the package, the new Aura Sanctuary is just the cherry on top of an already ridiculously dreamy retreat. Detox, retox, repeat because sweating in paradise has never looked this good.
The new retreat space offers an immersive contrast therapy experience, featuring a traditional red salt sauna, steam room, polar room, and ice plunge pool. One daily spa treatment per person and one wellbeing experience is included in the hotel rate.
