Overview

Spicers Sangoma Retreat – Luxury All-Inclusive Escape in the Blue Mountains

Tucked away in the foothills of the spectacular Blue Mountains, just over an hour from Sydney, Spicers Sangoma Retreat offers an intimate, all-inclusive luxury escape surrounded by pristine Australian bushland. Named after the Zulu word for “healer,” Sangoma embodies tranquillity, indulgence, and rejuvenation, making it one of the most sought-after romantic getaways in New South Wales.

A Secluded, Adults-Only Sanctuary

Designed exclusively for adults, Spicers Sangoma Retreat features just six luxurious suites, ensuring complete privacy and personalised service. Perched on a secluded 10-hectare property, the retreat offers breathtaking views over the Nepean River Gorge and Blue Mountains National Park. The eco-certified design blends harmoniously with the surrounding landscape, incorporating natural materials, sustainable features, and a commitment to minimising environmental impact.

Accommodation options include the Luxury Bush Suite, Escarpment Suite, Chief’s Suite, Lodge Suite, and the indulgent Tent Suite – each offering unique design elements and panoramic outlooks. Expect king-size beds, deep soaking bathtubs, wood fireplaces, heated floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outdoors in. Select suites feature private plunge pools or expansive decks for the ultimate in secluded luxury.

All-Inclusive Indulgence

Spicers Sangoma operates on a fully all-inclusive basis, with gourmet meals, snacks, and premium beverages included in every stay. Guests can enjoy a daily-changing menu of fine dining experiences crafted from seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. Breakfast, lunch, and multi-course dinners are complemented by wine pairings from a carefully curated cellar featuring the best of Australian and international wines.

The retreat’s open-plan main lodge includes a guest lounge, bar, and infinity-edge swimming pool overlooking the treetops – a perfect spot for relaxing with a cocktail at sunset.

Wellness and Rejuvenation

True to its name, Spicers Sangoma offers an exceptional wellness experience. The on-site spa features a range of rejuvenating treatments, from aromatherapy massages to detoxifying body wraps, using natural products that reflect the retreat’s eco-luxury ethos. Guests can also unwind in the sauna, take a yoga class, or enjoy guided meditation sessions.

Nature and Adventure at Your Doorstep

For those wishing to explore, the retreat provides easy access to the Blue Mountains World Heritage Area. Activities include guided bushwalks, wildlife spotting, and visits to local attractions such as the Three Sisters, Wentworth Falls, and the region’s boutique wineries. On the property itself, guests can enjoy scenic walking trails, birdwatching, and serene moments in secluded bushland clearings.
