About this Experience

What you'll do:

Your group gets private access to a handcrafted cedar wood-fired sauna and cold plunge setup hosted by Serenity Shore Spa at The Pell by Hyatt in Middletown, RI, with curated music, a cooling lounge, and a staff member on-site for the full session.

  • Cedar sauna: your group heats up together in a handcrafted wood-fired cedar sauna built for up to 10 people.

  • Cold plunge access: step outside the heat and into the cold plunge for the contrast experience that keeps guests coming back.

  • Cooling lounge: a dedicated space between rounds to rest, regroup, and enjoy the atmosphere.

  • Curated music: Serenity Shore Spa sets the sonic tone so your group can focus on each other, not logistics.

  • On-site host: a Serenity Shore Spa staff member runs the session so you don't have to think about a thing.

This is a private booking, meaning no strangers, no shared space, and no competing schedules. Groups up to 10 have the full setup to themselves for one hour.

Why we love it for your group:

  1. Beginner-friendly: no prior sauna or cold plunge experience needed, making it genuinely accessible for every person in your group.

  2. Insta-worthy setting: the cedar sauna aesthetic and cold plunge contrast create visuals that photograph well without any effort.

  3. Celebration-ready: this works equally well for bachelorette weekends, birthdays, girls trips, and group getaways in Newport.

  4. Low-key and social: the format naturally gets people talking, laughing, and present without anyone needing to perform.

  5. Flat group rate: at $400 for up to 10 people, the per-person cost is lower than most solo spa treatments in Newport.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the sauna + cold plunge experience work?

We recommend rotating between the sauna and cold plunge for 2–3 rounds. A common starting point is 10–15 minutes in the sauna followed by a 1–3 minute cold plunge. Everyone moves at their own pace, and we’re happy to guide first-time guests through the process.

Bring a swimsuit, towel, water bottle, and comfortable clothing for after your session. A small changing space is provided.

Yes. Our sessions are beginner-friendly and fully self-paced. Whether it’s your first sauna experience or you’re familiar with contrast therapy, we’ll guide you through the process so you feel comfortable the entire time.

What are your booking and cancellation policies?

Bookings are confirmed through our online reservation system with a deposit collected at the time of booking. The remaining balance is automatically charged 48 hours before your scheduled session.
