Annemaree and her husband have spent years curating the spectacular gardens, featuring touches of Mediterranean stonework, ponds, lakes, ornamental gardens, and lovely veggie patches. Now, Mamma says they have added a new luxury day spa retreat—and wow, it is amazing.
The private spa house, offers a truly private relaxing retreat. It includes an ice bath, an infrared sauna, and a beautiful magnesium spa that overlooks the entire property. Mamma says it is perfect for unwinding while soaking in the incredible views. Every detail epitomises luxury.
The best part? The Spa Pod is completely private and yours for the entire duration of your booking. It includes a private balcony, garden, toilet, and shower. Robes, water, towels, and slippers are provided—just remember to bring your bathers.
As part of the spa experience, you’ll have exclusive access to tour the gardens. This is a privilege reserved just for spa guests. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by friendly staff and provided with a map for a self-guided garden tour. You can choose from several walks, depending on how much time you have and how much of the gardens you’d like to explore. If you’d like to see everything, we recommend setting aside at least two hours.
All walks finish back at the Pavilion, where you’ll be whisked away by VIP golf buggy to your private Magnesium Hot Pool Spa Pod.
One of the highlights for Mamma in the garden tour is the paddock of rescue animals, including Sylvie the pig, friendly chickens, ducks, ponies, and Honey the alpaca with her adorable family. You can also pay extra for a VIP Tour of the Gardens which includes being personally introduced to the animals in the nursery paddock, and access to the Top Lookout. (+ $55 per person)
These animals are clearly the heart of Azure, reflecting Annemaree’s passion for creating a peaceful, loving sanctuary for both people and animals.

south gippsland tank adventures, wonyip
Perched high up on a hill in the Strzelecki Ranges, amidst a beautiful tree rainforest and the most spectacular views, you will find South Gippsland Tank Adventures.
Now here is an experience that is incredibly unique - and incredibly awesome! Mister almost 12 has labelled it as ‘the best day ever’ and something he will never forget - and this Mamma will never forget the awe and smile on his face as the Tank roared into action!
Perched high up on a hill in the Strzelecki Ranges, amidst a beautiful rainforest and the most spectacular views, you will find South Gippsland Tank Adventures.
Your experience will begin in the Museum, where your tour guide will take you through a collection of war paraphernalia including clothing, helmets, weapons, medals, radios and lots more. A highlight here for Mamma’s littlies was holding a rocket launcher and seeing in person all of the Army clothing and weapons that they’ve read about.
Next you will move into the warehouse where you get a hands on tour of their amoured vechicles - many tanks that you can climb on, turn turrets, raise guns and ask all the questions you can think of!
Then it’s time to chuck on your camo clothes, armoured helmets and flak jackets, and climb into your tank! You will then journey along a bumpy dirt track, traversing uphill and down, feeling like a rollercoaster at times! You can stand up and peer over the edge, or sit on the bench seat and one person can stand upfront in the gunner seat.
The ride goes for around 20 minutes and it is exhillerating!
This is such a wonderful - and also educational - experience, that Mamma’s crew will never forget!
