Discover Millbrook Resort in New Zealand

Set across 500 acres of beautiful Central Otago countryside, Millbrook Resort is a unique New Zealand spa destination. Surrounded by green fairways, gentle streams and spectacular mountains, it offers visitors the chance to enter a world of relaxation.

The experience

Life is busy. Work, traffic, crowds, time restraints, responsibilities… the world is an ever-revolving door of activity, which is great for progress, but not so much for your mind and body. Millbrook provides you with the opportunity to escape it all and focus on you. Just a 20-minute drive from Queenstown, and two minutes from historic Arrowtown, Millbrook Resort is conveniently close to everything yet feels like a world away.

Queenstown itself is renowned as the adventure capital of the world, although the region is equally famous for its award-winning wines and beautiful eateries. Combine these experiences with a retreat at Millbrook and the outcome is a holiday with something to offer everyone — young and old, relaxed or adventurous.

The Spa at Millbrook offers a range of restorative treatments to help guests achieve optimum levels of health and ultimate relaxation.

The healing

With 10 treatment rooms and a team of highly skilled therapists, The Spa has something to suit all ages. The team at Millbrook strive to create a welcoming and tranquil space and understand the importance of consistency and professionalism to ensure their services not only meet your expectations, but exceed them.

Using only the finest products from brands including Elemis, The Spa offers world-class facials, massages and full-body treatments, in addition to specialised men’s treatments, manicures, waxing and tinting. Spa manager, Michelle Batchelor, is proud of the spa’s consistent service, and aptly so, as it has been named New Zealand’s Leading Spa Resort for the fourth consecutive year at the World Travel Awards.

The Spa at Millbrook is also one of only a handful of spas in the country to offer Vichy treatments. Utilising a stunning 150-year-old Acacia cedar wooden table, this treatment is considered by many the ultimate in spa treatments and is bound to be one for the bucket list.

The combination of award-winning spa treatments and jaw-dropping scenery makes The Spa at Millbrook a truly unique experience that continues to fulfil local and visitor expectations alike. As more direct flights from Australia are introduced every year, Queenstown’s popularity as a holiday destination continues to grow and special accommodation and resort credit packages are ideal for those people looking to get away for a long weekend and revive.

In addition to the spa treatments on offer, there is also a health and fitness centre, indoor lap pool, outdoor hot spas and 27-hole golf course available to visitors. Many make a trip to Millbrook for a half- or full-day experience, utilising a number of the facilities on-site and simply enjoying the stunning rural surrounds and the chance to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.

The food

While at Millbrook, there are plenty of opportunities to indulge in delicious food and refreshments, with three dining venues on-site from a casual cafe through to contemporary dining. Your food choices include everything from freshly baked muffins and pastries to great coffee, freshly caught salmon, sashimi, dumplings and yakitori. Each of the restaurants at Millbrook offers a different cuisine, ambience and character and is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Getting there

Complimentary shuttle services are available from Queenstown or Arrowtown, so guests can hop on a shuttle and begin to relax right from the start of their Millbrook journey, as the shuttle guides them safely along a stunning scenic rural path to Millbrook Resort. You can also drive the 20-minute trip from Queenstown, or only two minutes from the quaint neighbouring village of Arrowtown. The team at Millbrook suggest you arrive 15 minutes early for your treatment, so you have plenty of time to unwind, have a cup of tea and enjoy the relaxing lounge area.
