Little Beach Co. Resort
Oceanfront Wood-Fired Sauna Experience

At Little Beach Co. Resort, our sauna is more than heat — it’s an experience.

This is a traditional, wood-fired sauna where you light your own fire. There is nothing quite like the glow and warmth of real flames, the gentle crackle of timber, and the view of the ocean and rocky shoreline below as you unwind.

Each booking includes a private one-hour session, designed for deep relaxation and restoration.

The Experience
Our sauna heats quickly to around 60°C, and typically reaches 80–90°C within approximately 20 minutes.

Recommended temperature: around 90°C

You control the heat by adding wood as needed throughout your session.
