The Oria local guide
Most of what Pemberton offers is Retreats, Nature & Experiences and Spa & Recovery — and there is more besides.
A waterfall on Beedelup Brook in Greater Beedelup National Park, reached by a 300-metre walk from the car park that crosses a suspension bridge, with an accessible lookout. The 4.5-kilometre loop through karri forest to Karri Valley Resort and the Walk-Through Tree is rated moderately hard. The falls run best in winter and early spring. Park entry is $17 a car, and dogs are not allowed.
A dam in the karri of Big Brook State Forest with a sandy beach for swimming, a sealed four-kilometre walk around the water that suits strollers and wheelchairs, and toilets, a shelter and picnic tables. Entry is free and the dam is stocked with trout. Dogs are allowed on a lead but not on the beach, and there is no camping at the dam itself — the Big Brook Arboretum campground is nearby.
Two wood-fired saunas built from Finnish cedar, floating on Pemberton Pool in the karri forest, each with a floor-to-ceiling window over the water — and the cold plunge is the pool itself. Shared one-hour sessions take up to six people, private hire is available, and sessions run 7am to 9pm daily. The site is off-grid with no toilets, so bring towels, water and a change of clothes.
Adults-only accommodation in forest about ten minutes from Pemberton, built around private spa time rather than treatments: four units, each with its own jacuzzi or outdoor spa bath, and three with a sauna. The Spa Cottage is a converted vintage rail carriage, and two of the suites look across to Warren National Park. Rates start from $330. Phone reception is limited and some units have no wifi.
A swimming hole on Lefroy Brook in Pemberton Forest Park, built in the late 1920s for timber workers' families and free to use, with public toilets and barbecues alongside and the mountain bike park next door. The floating saunas sit on the same water. The pool was closed for a time in March 2026 after trees were felled into it, so check access with the Pemberton Visitor Centre before a special trip.
The spa at Serenity House on Dean Street, Pemberton, offering massage, botanical facials, hand and foot rituals and reiki in 60 and 90-minute sessions from $130. Longer spa rituals run two to three hours, there is a three-hour couples retreat at $525, and the forest day retreats are priced per person for groups of three to six — $325 to $395 each.
A Belarusian banya on Browns Road, Pemberton, run the traditional way: steam, veniki — bundles of leafy branches worked over the skin — a cold plunge and Ivan tea. Social sessions run on set dates, at sunset or paired with lunch or dinner from the Belarusian kitchen on site, from $70 an adult. Private banya runs any day by appointment. Booking is essential, and deposits are not refunded.

Oria Haven lists 7 places in Pemberton across 3 kinds of practice. The most common are Retreats, Nature & Experiences (6), Spa & Recovery (4) and Massage & Bodywork (1). A place counts once for each kind of practice it offers.
3 of the 7 places publish a starting price, from $55 to $130. What you pay depends on the experience, and each place sets and changes its own, so check the listing before you go.
2 of the 7 places list their sessions as free or by donation.
We build the directory ourselves rather than taking paid submissions, so a practice appears because it exists and serves Perth — not because it paid. Practices can claim their listing for nothing and keep it accurate, photos included. Paid plans add booking links, offers and visitor stats. We never take a cut of bookings, and enquiries go straight to the practice.
