Luxury wellness retreats are a splurge, but the winner of the Spa & Wellness Awards' Best Resort Focused on Wellness is Elements of Byron.
The rise of luxury wellness escapes is in full swing, driven by the energy behind members-only health clubs, where the itinerary is slower and holiday-goers seek rejuvenation through nature and eco-friendliness.
The 2025 Spa & Wellness Awards have spotlighted the best spa destinations and wellness centres around Australia and New Zealand, with a focus on sustainability.
Elements of Byron has been crowned the Best Resort or Hotel Focused on Wellness, beating out other world-class stays like Qualia and Kokomo Private Island.
Anchored by the award-winning Osprey Spa, Elements of Byron spans 50 acres of rainforest, eucalypt, wetland, and dune landscapes near Belongil Beach.
