Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to book my spa treatment in advance?
We highly recommend booking ahead, especially for weekends, public holidays and concert weekends. The Spa is one of the Hunter Valley’s most sought-after wellness destinations, and popular treatment times can fill quickly.
If a spa day is part of your getaway plans, securing your booking before arrival is the best way to avoid missing out on your preferred treatment or therapist.
What treatments are available at The Spa?
Whether you’re craving a relaxation massage, a glow-boosting facial, a full-body ritual or simply some well-deserved “me time”, there’s a treatment to suit every mood and occasion.
Our experienced therapists can help personalise your experience, whether you’re looking to relax, recharge or completely switch off from the outside world.
View our Treatment Menu for the full range of experiences available.
How early should I arrive for my appointment?
We recommend arriving at least 15 minutes before your treatment begins.
This gives you time to check in, complete your consultation and start easing into relaxation mode before your therapist welcomes you.
After all, your spa experience should start well before your treatment does.
Can I use the spa facilities if I'm having a treatment?
Absolutely. Guests booking treatments of 50 minutes or longer enjoy complimentary access to our Hydro Lounge and Deck.
Unwind in our outdoor mineral spas, soak up the peaceful surroundings and take a little extra time to disconnect from the everyday. Many guests tell us this becomes their favourite part of the entire experience.
Please note that Hydro Lounge sessions must be reserved in advance and are subject to availability.
What should I wear to my spa appointment?
Come exactly as you are.
We’ll provide robes, towels, slippers and everything else you need for a comfortable experience.
If you’re planning to enjoy the Hydro Lounge or mineral spas, don’t forget to pack your swimwear. The hardest decision you’ll need to make is whether to spend more time soaking or relaxing.
Can we book spa treatments as a couple?
Absolutely.
Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, honeymoon, birthday, mini-moon or simply a much-needed escape together, couples’ treatments are one of our most popular experiences.
We offer a limited number of couples treatment rooms, so be sure to let our team know when booking if you’d like to enjoy your treatments side-by-side.
Are gift vouchers available?
Yes, and they’re always a crowd-pleaser.
Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, Christmas gift, wedding present or simply a thoughtful surprise, a Spa gift voucher gives someone permission to slow down, relax and indulge.
Is The Spa only for resort guests?
Not at all.
The Spa welcomes both Chateau Elan guests and day visitors from across the Hunter Valley and beyond. Whether you’re staying overnight or planning a dedicated spa day, we’d love to welcome you.
Is there a minimum age for spa treatments?
Our policy is no children at The Spa. We ask that you arrange child care for your young ones.
Children 10 years & older are welcome for services/treatments only. Ages 10 to 16 need to be accompanied by an adult in the same treatment room. This is for the children’s safety and an WH&S requirement.

The Spa is open seven days a week.
Opening hours may vary slightly throughout the year, so we recommend checking with our Spa team when making your booking.
What is a Float Tank and what can I expect?
Think of it as the ultimate digital detox.
A float session allows you to rest effortlessly in warm, highly-salted water within a private float pod. The sensation of weightlessness helps reduce external distractions, allowing both body and mind to deeply relax.
Guests often describe the experience as calming, restorative and surprisingly meditative. It’s perfect if you’re looking to switch off, reset and enjoy a different kind of wellness experience.
Does The Spa offer pregnancy treatments?
Yes. We offer selected treatments designed specifically for expecting mothers.
For your comfort and safety, we recommend waiting until after your first trimester before booking spa treatments and consulting your healthcare professional if you have any concerns.
Please note that our mineral spas, Sauna’s and Balneotherapy experiences are not recommended during pregnancy.
Can I enjoy food and drinks during my spa visit?
Absolutely. A little indulgence pairs perfectly with relaxation.
Guests can pre-order cheese platters and enjoy a selection of beverages while unwinding in our relaxation spaces. From sparkling wine and cocktails to juices and specialty drinks, it’s the perfect way to extend your spa experience.
We recommend ordering platters in advance to ensure availability
