Enter a world of tranquility and rejuvenation at our Tea House & Spa, where an immersive experience has been created, drawing inspiration from the stunning natural landscape of stone and water that surrounds us. Our aim is to assist you in embarking on a journey of soulful rejuvenation, beginning with a simple tea ritual in our warmly designed, above ground-level tea house, boasting panoramic views of the serene lake. As you progress through your journey of self-discovery, you will find your senses heightened by immersing yourself in materials derived directly from our surroundings: stone, light, and water. The bathing experience has been carefully crafted into a variety of scales from an intimate and personal one to larger more public settings, inspired by the intricacies of the human experience. In the quest to create a space that is truly immersive, stone and wood finishing materials have been chosen to amplify the sensation of the human skin. Every step taken and every surface touched has been designed with the human touch in mind, from the sensation of the foot on the floor to the feeling of the body leaning against the wall.
An Odyssey is created to be more than just a spa. It is an immersive experience that draws inspiration from the beauty of the surroundings, designed to help you discover the power of holistic healing and connect with your inner self.
