Start by pampering yourself at one of Murwillumbah’s beautiful day spas. Gymea Eco Retreat Centre and Healing Spa is a sustainable venue located at the base of majestic Mt Warning. Its core focus is regeneration and rejuvenation, whether that’s through hosting corporate retreats or welcoming clients to the healing spa. Nestled in a lush rainforest valley, the healing spa offers a range of facials and massages and its water therapy circuit is highly recommended for detoxification. The circuit takes you on a journey from the sauna to the steam room to the magnesium plunge pool and then the ozone jacuzzi.

Poppy’s Barbershop is a walk-ins only facility. The family-owned and operated barbershop in the heart of Murwillumbah is proud to offer a traditional barbering experience.
