FAQ
Do I need to book in advance?
We highly recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred time, especially during weekends or holidays. Walk-ins are welcome when space allows for public bathing. A minimum of two hours’ notice is required for all private bathing bookings.
What should I bring?
Please bring swimwear, a towel, and a non-glass water bottle. For added comfort, we also recommend bringing non-slip footwear. A water station is available inside the public bath house. If needed, towels can be hired for a $6 fee.
How do I store my belongings?
The indoor Bath House does not have individual lockers; however, open locker storage is available in both the public bath house and the change rooms.
We strongly recommend leaving valuables at home, as we cannot take responsibility for any lost or stolen personal items. If you’ve booked one of our private bathing rooms, you’re welcome to bring all your belongings into the room with you.
Are there any health restrictions?
If you are pregnant, have a heart condition, or any other medical concern, please consult your doctor before using geothermal baths. Always inform our team of any health conditions prior to your visit.
If you have any of the subsequent medical conditions, we strongly recommend seeking medical guidance before using our pools:

We encourage all guests to consult their doctor before using our pools or engaging in any spa treatments. Upon your arrival, we may request your signature on a waiver form, confirming that you have been informed of this important information. Your well-being is our utmost priority.
What temperature are the pools?
Our geothermal pool temperature typically ranges between 37°C to 41°C (97°F to 104°F), depending on the season. The cold plunge pool is set to 12 degrees.
Our private bathing rooms are set to 40 degrees but can be customised by request. Cold water taps are easily accessible to cool both yourself and the pool down if needed.
Is there a time limit?
Our public bath house and private bathing rooms sessions typically run for 60 minutes.
Is the bathing area accessible for all abilities?
At this time, no. Please visit our Accessibility page for information on facilities and accessibility features at the Deep Blue or contact our friendly reception on (03) 5559 2020.
What is the difference between the Bath House and the Hot Springs Sanctuary?
The Bath House features an indoor, public open-plan mineral pool, along with private bathing rooms that can be booked for a more personal experience. The outdoor Sanctuary offers eighteen distinct bathing pools , including geothermal rockpools, sensory caves and gentle waterfalls to explore. Both areas draw from our natural geothermal mineral waters, and many guests choose to enjoy both during their visit.
Can children attend?
All ages 5 years and over are welcome to attend the Bath House for both public and private bathing. However, they must be always accompanied by a parent or guardian if aged under 16 years. We reserve the right to ask for photo identification upon arrival.
