Accommodations

In harmony with nature.

At Spicers Sangoma Retreat, the rooms emphasize a design that connects with the surrounding nature, creating a relaxing and distinctly Australian space to unwind. Each has a unique personality, and privacy and seclusion are paramount; this is the ideal place to relax and unwind.
Pool

A solar-heated lap pool with Blue Mountains views.

A solar-heated lap pool sits quietly on the property, with the Blue Mountains spread out beyond the terrace, ideal for a blissful day in the water.
Spa

Australian bushland rituals.

Spicers Sangoma Retreat's spa draws on the essence of the surrounding bushland and the artistry of restorative massage techniques. Secluded and elevated, this is a place where nature does much of the healing work, and the busy world feels very far away.
Restaurant + Bar

Local, organic, and sustainable cuisine cooked over charcoal and fire.

At Amara, only the freshest organic and sustainable produce is sourced from within a one-hour drive of the retreat. It's a philosophy the kitchen calls the "chef's harvest experience," built on strong personal relationships with local producers to ensure the best of the region is always at hand. Indigenous ingredients and traditional cooking techniques of charcoal and fire also bring a distinctly Australian character to the menu.
  • Vibe
    Moody, sensual, and restorative, with deep baths, warming fireplaces, and bold artwork in eight private suites.
  • Who's it for?
    Sangoma is made for couples and honeymooners. The all-inclusive format, eight private suites, and deeply seductive atmosphere make it one of the most romantic retreats in Australia.
  • Location
    Time at Sangoma moves slowly, although there is certainly no shortage of ways to fill it, from spectacular mountain walks in the Blue Mountains to gourmet excursions into Kurrajong and Katoomba, a couples massage in the spa tent to a wine and watercolor art class, or an afternoon sipping cocktails by the pool. All are available at whatever pace suits you best in a remote bushland location at the eastern edges of the Blue Mountains.
