The 6 best spas in Perth for massages and facials

Prepare to be absolutely amazed by the glitz and glamour of Crown Spa Perth. You’ll struggle to find a spa in the city as lavish as this one, and for good reason. The lush architecture is only complimented by their exclusive La Prairie and Subtle Energies treatments, which will have you feeling otherworldly. From deep exfoliating body wraps and hot stone massages to pomegranate enzyme facials and therapeutic sound journeys, every treatment transports you to another realm. Fully lap up the experience with a complimentary session in their dedicated Aqua Retreat, featuring a vitality pool, rain showers and a Roman-bath-style stream room. 

Amidst the bustle of Perth’s city, Como Shambhala’s Urban Escape is a real-life getaway from big, city life. A trip to this spa will see you receive hands-on healing, a hybrid of traditional Eastern techniques and advances in holistic healthcare. Unwind in their reimagined 19th-century vaults, take a dip in the 20-metre indoor lap pool, or join one of their soothing yoga classes. Pamper yourself even further and reserve a lunch spot at one of the State Building’s many eateries after your treatment, including Perth’s highest-ranked restaurant, Wildflower. 

Meaning ‘awaken’ in Sanskrit, a visit to Bodhi spa will leave you feeling revitalised in both body and mind. All of their spas, from the Westin to the Margaret River, offer a holistic suite of luxurious spa treatments, using only natural, Australian-made products. For a deeply relaxing experience, we recommend their three-hour Grounding Ritual, featuring a full-body exfoliation with botanical oils and Australian salts, followed by a sumptuous warm mud treatment. You'll leave feeling utterly transformed. 

Not only is the Ritz-Carlton spa in Perth expansive, but it also comes with one of the best views of Elizabeth Quay and the Swan River. Start with a herbal tea, kindly offered by their friendly staff, before taking a dip in the vitality pool which boasts a stunning view of the waterfront and Bell Tower. Finish with the Quartz Release, where the use of a gua-sha (a traditional Chinese massage tool used to gently scrape the skin) will help soothe the skin and improve circulation and blood flow. Your muscles will thank you later.

Disguised as a warehouse in the middle of Osborne Park is actually the perfect place for a soak and steam, aka, Ember Bathhouse. Opening in mid-2023, owners Sam Rodarte and Ryan Congdon have created an earthy escape with ambient lighting and soothing greenery. If you’re looking for something a little more intimate this might be it as Ember Bathhouse only has up to eight people in the space at one time. Our recommendation? Book yourself in for the Moroccan hammam steam room or their Finnish sauna. 

Feeling looked after and luxurious is a given once you step into Greenhaus Studio. Their fully natural treatments, including hot stone, four-hand and crystal massages, are all carefully curated, drawing on practices from traditional healing models, such as Ayurveda, acupressure and Reiki. Their studio features a range of organic and sustainable products up for grabs, many of which are from local Perth or Western Australian brands. If you’re looking for the ultimate relaxation (who isn’t?) opt for the Greenhaus Ultimate Renewal. You’ll enjoy an Ayurvedic back exfoliation, a full body intuitive massage, a collagen restore facial and a head massage to finish. We feel relaxed just reading about it.
