Residential and hotel developers looking for a gap in the market and unique point of difference are now offering high-end and tailored wellness experiences within their building's wellness rooms or even in-room solutions.

Brisbane-based developer Cavcorp partnered with Technogym recently for its Le Bain apartment complex in inner-city Newstead.

The building's high-end resort-style amenities, include two temperature-controlled spa baths, a heated pool, as well as world-class wellness facility fully equipped by Technogym.

Recognising the latest trends on health and wellbeing and residents wanting to be healthier and happier, Cavcorp director Damien Cavallucci said the company had placed a huge focus on this space, selecting Technogym as their wellness partner.
