The Daintree Coast region has a new day spa attraction with the recent opening of the Ocean Spa at Coconut Beach Resort.  The spa fulfills the property’s complement of attractions and had been very well-patronised since it opened its doors.

The spa facility was essentially created with a major resort renovation to the Cape Restaurant – the function centre and resort restaurant which faces Coconut Beach itself.   A reception area and four treatment rooms have been built on the south side of the centre, creating the facility within the existing architecture so that it blends and merges with the rainforest resort setting.

The Ocean Spa is managed by well-known spa director and therapist Alex Rietmeyer. Alex is an award-winning spa practioner having won a Tropical North Qld Tourism Award in 2006 for the Daintree Natural Therapies & Spa at Cape Tribulation which Alex also continues to operate.

Alex choose the Australian range of Organic Spa products to headline a menu which features facials, massage treatments, clay wraps, and a deep spa bath for clay and mineral baths.  Brides are specially catered for, with an Ocean Wedding bride-to-be treatment presenting a way to calm pre-wedding nerves with a soothing body massage, mini facial, aroma milk bath and foot treatment.

“Anyone can enjoy being specially pampered,” says Alex.  “We even have developed a new outdoor evening treatment we named Ocean Deck where the table is set outside on the timber deck – its perfect for a full moon evening with your partner!”
