Local tip
A bathhouse session can be paired with an on-site meal, while massage treatments offer a separate way to extend the visit.

The Banya is an adults-only bathhouse, massage and dining venue at 35 Burringbar Street in Mullumbimby. Designed as a social wellness setting, it brings bathing, treatments, food and drinks together under one roof. The venue suits adults looking for a restorative session, a relaxed meal, or a longer occasion that combines both.

The bathhouse includes a marble-tiled pool, two hot mineral pools, a wood-fired sauna, a steam room and a cold plunge. These facilities create a circuit of warm, cool and heat-based bathing, with shared areas providing space to relax between sessions. The atmosphere is centred on unhurried social time rather than a conventional day spa visit, making the setting suitable for couples, friends and small groups.

Massage treatments take place in dedicated massage suites and are offered in three styles: relaxation, deep tissue and pregnancy massage. Treatments can be booked separately from bathhouse access, allowing the experience to focus on either bathing or hands-on bodywork.

Dining is available on site for a meal before or after bathing, or for a longer lunch with friends. The food offering centres on small share plates and nutritious staples, with a casual yet considered approach to the menu. The bar serves wine, cocktails and health-focused elixirs, giving the venue options for both social drinking and non-alcoholic refreshment. For travellers based in Byron Bay, The Banya provides a Mullumbimby setting for combining wellness, dining and time with friends.

A private chauffeur service is also available for transfers to and from the venue. It is positioned for couples, groups and special occasions, with complimentary transfers available for qualifying group bookings. Bathhouse sessions and massage treatments have dedicated booking options, while the dining area can be included as part of a broader visit.

The Banya operates as an 18-plus venue, so it is intended for adults rather than family outings. Opening hours are listed as 9am to 9:30pm, seven days a week. The address places the venue on Burringbar Street in Mullumbimby, within the Northern Rivers town's central area.
