Spa-1 at Grandlink Square
Those who’ve been to Seoul would probably be familiar with the Jjimjilbang concept – public bathhouses with facilities such as hot tubs and traditional kiln saunas. Well, what if we told you that you can have that experience right here in Singapore? Enter Spa-1, a hidden gem in Grandlink Square.
It houses 12 different facilities with 3 passes you can choose from, so you can indulge in a full day of relaxation without spending a bomb. Here’s what you can expect:
Cool facilities like Himalayan salt sauna & hot hydro jet pool
You’ll get to go on a little spa adventure as you hop around and enjoy the 12 different facilities. Depending on the facility, some are unisex while others are segregated into male and female rooms.
The Hot Bath has pretty flower decor for you to admire while you soak in the tub.

For those who don’t know where to start, head to the Himalayan Salt Sauna, where you can unwind as you inhale the salt air and release any tension. Then, rejuvenate on jade beds in the Jade Room to boost circulation and relax your muscles.
For a Japanese onsen-like experience, there’s also the Menthol Steam Room – which has separate facilities for male and female customers. However, that’s not the only room where you can get some much-needed privacy.
Finnish Sauna, a male-only facility.

Ladies, stroll into the Infrared Sauna to heal your weary muscles and joints, while gentlemen can detox in the Finnish Sauna.
The Cold Pool works well for those who exercise often, as it allows you to feel refreshed after a quick dip.

Sure, escaping reality is the essence of a spa visit. But just in case duty calls, you can catch up on emails at the Resting Lounge. Don’t get too caught up with work, though. Once your tasks are completed, sink into the comfortable recliner sofas and enjoy the movies playing on the screen.
3-hour pass from $48
Now the main question is, how much does it cost? You’d be surprised to find out that a 3-hour day pass to the spa starts from just $48. But if you really want to spend a whole day soaking up all the amenities, opt for a full-day pass from $68. You’ll have access to the facilities from 11am-10.30pm.
Do note that some facilities – such as the foot spa, oxygen room, grand spa therapy, and hot slate therapy – are available at additional charges. Depending on the facilities you are interested in, upgrades start from $15.
A spa day is a great excuse to spend time with your gal pal.

Full-day couple passes are also available starting at $108, so you can grab bae or your BFF and have a girls’ day out. Besides, it’s a great chance to catch up on life while pampering yourselves.
Lockers are available for you to keep your belongings.

Also, no need to worry about packing your toiletry bags because the spa will provide you with all the essentials, including towels, disposable undergarments, and even clothes to change into when you’re at the spa. If you want to freshen up before heading out, shampoo, body wash, and hair dryers are also available in the bathrooms.
Try to arrive 15 minutes before your slot – the friendly staff will provide a guided tour upon your arrival, ensuring you won’t miss a thing in this tranquil oasis.
Free-flow vegetarian meals & drinks

If you start feeling a bit peckish during your spa day, vegetarian food and drinks are available at the cafeteria. The menu changes occasionally, but some dishes to expect include carrot cake and salad.
And the best part? The food and drinks are free-flow and included in your day pass, so you don’t need to feel paiseh about going for an extra serving. With everything conveniently available, you can fully immerse yourself in the experience without interruptions or the need to cut it short to buy food elsewhere.
