Sink into these outdoor baths on your next holiday on the Central Coast

After a day of travelling, imagine sinking into a warm inviting outdoor bath with the feeling your holiday has truly begun. As you take the plunge and begin to unwind in warm waters with a starry canopy above you, nothing spells alfresco relaxation quite like bathing outdoors.

We've handpicked a selection of toe tempting tubs to delve into.

Minutes from the beach at Umina Beach, take time out from the busyness of life to unwind in a secluded coastal getaway for up to four people. In the beautifully landscaped private garden of Rest, complete with waterfall shower and rustic firepit, you’ll find a freestanding outdoor bath carved out of stone surrounded by a lush tropical oasis of exotic palms and flowers. Relax in an unforgettable setting under the blue skies during the day or the twinkling stars at night. Either way, it will be easy to let your worries slip away.

Nestled in the sweeping natural beauty of Dharug National Park in the Lower Mangrove region, escape the daily grind, and immerse yourself in the serenity of the Central Coast hinterland. The Growers Cottage is adorned with a garden of fresh fruit and vegetables and a beautiful stone hot bath. Enjoy the undisturbed views of the National Park, lay back in the tub and listen to the calming sounds of nature while you recharge your batteries in the fresh country air.  

Steps away from secluded beach at Pearl Beach, immerse yourself in The One, a luxurious lake side holiday rental. Free from the hustle and bustle of busy life, your wellness can take full priority. Take a moment to yourself by sinking into the grand outdoor bath that will have you soaking up the sounds of the nearby waves and local kookaburras while you sip your favourite local wine.

Between Blue Bay and Toowoon Bay beaches, you'll find a Balinese inspired holiday rental at Long Jetty that will make you feel like you are on your own private island. Enjoy a long soak in Seascape's outdoor bubble bath to relax your mind and body, get lost in your favourite book or look up to the nighttime sky to spot the milky way. 

While not really outdoor baths, we've added two more incredible baths that deserve a mention because the outdoors is not too far away.

Nest at Blue Bay, is a luxurious place for couples to rest their heads. It has been thoughtfully designed to ensure you and your partner have everything you need to enjoy a relaxing stay. This includes a gorgeous stone bath set beside enormous windows that open onto a living wall of green plants. Lay back in the bath and let the sounds of nature drift inside taking you to place of mindful bliss. 

Set in a picturesque pocket of rural Central Coast, Tumbi Orchard gives guests the opportunity to unwind with breathtaking views over the iconic Australian bushland. The cottage is in a prime position and one of the best locations to truly immerse yourself in the view is to run a deep bath and soak in the 180 degree view.
