What a sauna costs in Perth: prices from 31 venues, checked

This page won’t rank Perth’s saunas, and it won’t tell you what an hour in one does for you — no price list can answer that. What it can do is put numbers on the question people actually ask before they book. We checked the published prices of 31 sauna venues on their own websites on 7 October 2026 — infrared studios, sauna houses and day spas. The short answer is this. Thirty minutes in a private infrared cabin costs about $35, and most places charge between $25 and $40. Forty-five minutes is closer to $49. A traditional sauna is sold differently — usually as an hour, often in a shared room, and often with a cold plunge in the ticket — and runs from $25 to $89 depending on how much else comes with it.

Every figure below comes from the venue’s own site or the booking page it links to — not deal sites, and not anything a studio hasn’t put its name to. Six infrared studios publish no single-session price at all. Prices move. Treat this as a snapshot from early October rather than a price list, and confirm the current rate before you pay.

Thirty minutes in an infrared cabin costs $25 to $40 at most places

Ten studios publish a price for a single thirty-minute infrared sauna session, and eight of them sit between $25 and $40 — the cheapest are Zen Zone in Beldon and Rhema Wellness Studio in Cockburn Central, both at $25. Recovery Lab in Jolimont and Salt Float Studio in South Perth charge $30, The Neighbourhood Sauna in Fremantle $34, Ellenbrook Life Balance $35, Float Lab in Wembley $39 and Perth Cryo in Currambine $40. The two above that range are day spas — Le Beau in Kardinya at $55 and Soothe in Nedlands at $70 — where the sauna sits on a treatment menu and the price comes with the rest of the building.

Forty-five minutes is the other common length, and there the middle of the market is $49. Beyond Rest in East Perth, Reform and Restore in Scarborough and The Neighbourhood Sauna all charge exactly that, Bodyscape in Nedlands charges $50, and Rhema undercuts everyone at $35. Check the length before you compare. A $40 session that runs thirty minutes and a $49 one that runs forty-five are not the same purchase, however close together the booking page puts them.

One price does not fit the pattern, because the equipment does not. Element Health Centres in Claremont charges $75 for forty minutes in a one-person far-infrared pod, where you lie down with your head outside — a different machine from a cabin, priced as one.

A second person adds $10 to $30, not double

Most infrared cabins are private. Most take two. Booking as a pair is where the sums turn friendly — Zen Zone charges $40 for two people against $25 for one, The Neighbourhood Sauna $44 against $34, Rhema $45 and Float Lab $55. Across every studio that publishes both prices, the second person adds between $10 and $30 to the bill. If you were going to go separately anyway — go together.

Fifteen infrared studios say in writing that sessions are private: your own room, your own timer, and nobody waiting for you to finish with the bench. Nine do not say either way. It is worth asking before you book, because it decides whether you pack swimwear or simply wear whatever’s comfortable. If you’re still deciding between the two kinds of heat, our infrared vs traditional sauna comparison sets them side by side, and what an infrared sauna is actually like walks through a first session.

A traditional sauna is sold by the hour, and the price depends on what else is in it

The hot, wood-lined kind is a different purchase. Alchemy Saunas in East Perth charges $35 for an hour’s drop-in in shared saunas, with an ice pool and a magnesium pool included — it’s 18-plus, and the site asks you to bring two towels. Sauna & Ice Bath Booragoon runs an outdoor barrel sauna for exclusive use at $25 for thirty minutes or $35 for an hour, sauna only. At the top, Ember Bath House in Osborne Park charges $89 for ninety minutes. That covers a Finnish sauna, a steam room, a hot mineral bath and an ice bath, with a towel, robe and tea thrown in.

So the useful comparison isn’t $35 against $89. It’s what each ticket buys — one room, a room and a plunge, or a whole circuit for an afternoon. Two sauna houses publish memberships but no casual price: Löyly Recovery in Stirling starts at $45 a week for one communal session, and RecWell in Wangara at $49 a week for two contrast sessions. Here’s one that costs us something. Our Best Of guide quoted single-session prices for Melt in Subiaco last month, and we couldn’t find them on its site this time — only a $49 weekly membership — so they’re not repeated here. Every venue above is on the traditional sauna page, and both kinds sit together under saunas in Perth.

Sauna and ice bath together costs $40 to $80 for most sessions

Many places sell both as one booking. Zen Zone and the Booragoon sauna both charge $40 for an hour of sauna and ice bath, and Locked In Recovery in Warwick charges $45 — and from there it climbs, with Reform and Restore’s private sixty-minute session at $69, as is Modern Ritual in Maylands — though its own site said in early October that the ice bath was out of action, and credits were going on sauna-only sessions in the meantime. Beyond Rest charges $79 for forty-five minutes on your own, and Ultimate Recovery Lounge in Wanneroo $99 for an hour in a private room with both. The full list is on the ice bath and sauna page, and if you’re weighing it against a float, sauna, ice bath or float covers which to book first.

Packs and memberships are where the price falls furthest

The casual price is the one on the poster. The pack price is the one regulars pay. Rhema’s ten thirty-minute sessions cost $200 — $20 each, the lowest pack price we found. Bodyscape’s ten-pack works out at $30 a session and Float Lab’s at $32, while first-timers at Bodyscape can buy three forty-five-minute sessions for $99 and Recovery Lab sells ten days of everything for $79.

Weekly memberships cluster around $50. Recovery Lab and Melt both charge $49, and Re-Boot Collective in North Perth $49.99. Locked In charges $50 for up to three sessions, The Neighbourhood Sauna $60 on a three-month commitment and Ultimate Recovery Lounge $65. A membership is priced for the week you plan to have rather than the one you get. Do the sums honestly. Three visits on a $49 membership is about $16 each, which beats every casual price on this page — one visit is $49, which beats none of them.

The small costs are towels, swimwear and the age limit

Towels are the line item most pricing pages leave out. Zen Zone charges $5 for one, Recovery Lab charges extra, and Ember Bath House, Ultimate Recovery Lounge and Recovery Haus in Innaloo supply them. Communal rooms want swimwear — Ember requires it — while most private cabins leave it to you. Ember and Alchemy are 18-plus, and Bodyscape takes 16- and 17-year-olds with a parent’s signed consent.

If you want a cabin to yourself, start with the infrared listings and sort them by suburb to find the nearest. If you want a hot room and a cold plunge, start with the traditional ones. And if you’d rather someone else had narrowed it down, the best saunas in Perth guide picks five. We don’t take a cut of any booking — every link on this page goes to the venue’s own listing, and the price you pay is the one on its site.
