Guest Comment - 'Jodie it was the Best Massage I've had, and I've been to some of the best spas across the world!' Emma
Our vision
creating an authentic tropical day spa on Queensland's Sunshine Coast. The acreage property location was selected to give clients a greener environment, a place to escape and for close proximity to Noosa, Peregian and Coolum. We chose a Balinese influenced day spa for the cultural significance and holistic approach to health and wellbieng that is part of Balinese culture.

my career has always been in the beauty and wellness industries and I wanted to create a place where people could leave the hectic pace of life behind them by being immersed in ikatan's tropical environment, where life is at a slower pace and therapists have time to prepare and care for you. I am passionate about researching traditional cultural therapies to design the body treatments at ikatan. I am an internationa Spa Trainer.

coming from an Aeronautical career, the day spa industry was new to me when we first opened ikatan. More familiar is the Design of the buildings, landscaping and gardening (which I create and maintain) as this has been passed on by my families businesses. I am passionate about ikatan gardens and the evolving future development of ikatan. It's rewarding to hear from clients 'I go to day spas all over the world and ikatan has it all, gardens and amazing treatments, its a credit to you both' .
ikatan day spa has been established for over seven yearsand we continue to grow and diversify the business. we employ ten staff who adopt the ikatan philosophy and culture of enjoying what we do and doing it well with time, authentic treatments and products to work with in an amazing environment.
ikatan likes to support and give back to our local and Balinese communities. We sponsor a Balinese family who help us with everything we need to keep ikatan authentically Balinese.
