Pool, gym and spa

Recover between long days: pool, gym and spa

A heated pool with a café, a full health club with classes, and a day spa on its first level.

The heated pool

The resort pool is heated, which matters more than you would think: Alice Springs winter nights average under 5 °C at the airport station in June and July, per the BoM. A cold pool in July is a dare; a heated one is a swim. Splash Cafe sits beside it and serves from 11.30am to 6pm daily. Tourism NT also lists a children's pool, and the convention centre's accessibility guide notes accessible change rooms at the pool.

The premium room category lists a pool view as one of three balcony outlooks. If you want to watch children in the water from the room, ask for it.

Lasseters Health Club

The Health Club is a commercial gym on the same site, with its own members, at 93 Barrett Drive. Its own site lists high-intensity, strength, stretch and yoga, dance and aqua classes, personal training, body composition analysis and child minding. The hotel's fitness centre page describes a fully equipped gym for guests, and Tourism NT calls it a 24-hour facility. We could not read the club's current timetable or hours; ask at reception or ring the club on 08 8950 7706.

For a touring guest the gym is most useful for stretching out after a long drive. Five and a half hours to Uluṟu, or two days of gorge walking, leave hips and calves tight. Fifteen minutes on a mat helps more than you expect.

Hours read from the spa's own site on 31 October 2026. The Thursday late finish at 7pm is the only evening slot, so a massage after a day out is possible once a week. On other days, book the spa for your rest day rather than after a hike.

Bikes

The hotel offers bike hire to guests, according to its services page. Tourism NT describes about 200 km of single-track mountain-bike trails around Alice Springs, and mentions daily guided rides with gear provided from the Telegraph Station reserve, 7.4 km from the hotel by road. We could not read the hire terms; ask at reception for the type of bike and whether helmets are included.

Ask our desk for a room

Two short steps. Our booking desk checks the dates with the hotel or its booking partner and replies by email with what is available and the price. We never ask for a card, and this is not yet a booking.
