Nestled in the stunning coastal region of Victoria, the RACV Cape Schanck Resort offers more than just breathtaking views—it delivers a complete experience of relaxation and rejuvenation. During a recent weekend getaway, I discovered that this hidden gem is not just a place to stay but a destination that invites you to unwind, indulge, and reconnect with yourself.

The RACV Spa Experience: A Must-Do

If you plan to visit RACV Cape Schanck, a trip to their One Spa should be at the top of your list.

The spa features a hydrotherapy pool, steam room, and relaxation lounges, providing a peaceful place to unwind. Trust me, this is not something you want to miss. I had a bit of a last-minute scramble, but thanks to Tracey’s incredible effort, she managed to secure a spot for me. Despite the spa's busy schedule, her dedication to finding a suitable time set the tone for what would be an unforgettable experience.

More Than Just a Resort

While the resort offers an array of activities—golfing, hitting the gym, or lounging by the heated pool—there’s something about stepping into a day spa that immediately makes me feel at home. The RACV Cape Schanck Day Spa is designed to take you on a journey, offering pre-and post-treatment facilities that enhance the entire experience. With a hammam and mineral hot pools, the spa provides the perfect setting for a transformative journey of wellness.

A Warm Welcome and a Tranquil Setting

From the moment I arrived at the spa desk, Jo made me feel so welcome. She kindly gave me a tour, leading me through the changing rooms, where she guided me towards the hammam, mineral pools, and the relaxation room. This serene space was stocked with warm herbal tea, chilled water, and a selection of magazines, all while soothing music played in the background. It was here that my Spa Therapist, Brooke, would come to collect me for my treatment.

The Treatment: A Blissful Escape

Brooke whisked me away to one of the spa’s eight beautifully appointed treatment rooms, where I was greeted by the comforting warmth of a heated massage bed. I opted for a 60-minute massage and chose the ‘Recovery’ essential oil from the LaGaia collection. The room filled with the invigorating scents of lime, geranium, and peppermint as Brooke worked her magic, gently easing me into a state of semi-deep sleep. It was pure bliss.

Post-Treatment Perfection

After my treatment, I returned to the changing room, where I was delighted to find all the LaGaia amenities I needed to complete my spa experience. With luxurious shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and body lotion at my disposal, I emerged from the shower feeling refreshed and my skin fully rehydrated.

Planning My Next Visit

I left the spa feeling rejuvenated and already planning my next visit. Next time, I’ll be sure to book my treatment well in advance to secure a spot for a body polish and facial. If you’re considering a trip to RACV Cape Schanck, take my advice: book your spa treatment before you even reach your destination. It’s an experience you won’t want to miss.

The RACV Cape Schanck Resort offers a perfect blend of luxury, relaxation, and natural beauty. Whether you’re there for the golf, the views, or the spa, you’ll find that this resort has everything you need for a weekend escape that rejuvenates both body and mind. I can’t wait to return.
