IN-ROOM WELLNESS AT RILEY, QLD

Hotel stays have taken on a whole new vibe during the pandemic and in-room wellness has – thankfully – advanced past a few token packets of green tea. In Cairns, Crystalbrook Collection’s Riley hotel has partnered with Sydneybased psychology practice The

Indigo Project to offer a five-step mindfulness challenge. To help you achieve balance during your stay, you’ll find a yoga mat and iPad loaded with yoga and pilates practices and guided meditations in your room. The Live in the Moment package also includes a centring treatment at Eléme Day Spa, takehome herbal tea, sleepscented pillow spray and a bath or shower “butler pack” with aromatherapy oil, a body scrub and Daintree Chocolate. crystalbrookcollection.com/riley

SELF-GUIDED WELLNESS AT ELEMENTS OF BYRON, NSW

Rather than feeling locked into a gruelling Biggest Loser- style challenge, or fretting about what you’ll eat, Elements of Byron recently decided to shake up its wellness offering to allow you to curate your own retreat. It’s designed with three phrases – relax, rebalance and revive – and you can opt in and out of what you want to do during your five-night stay. Perhaps sunrise yoga and a guided hike one day, an aqua class the next, and an add-on float tank or horse riding on the beach after that. elementsofbyron.com.au
