One Spa

The 60-minute customised Hydra Memory Facial at this light-filled spa at RACV Royal Pines Resort in Benowa is deeply hydrating. It’s ideal for men because it soothes and nourishes skin that’s damaged or irritated from shaving. As a bonus, the Royal Pines championship golf course is on site. So you can team your skin treatment with an 18-hole round.
