The seaside block in Swansea was purchased by Rupert Von Haniel-Niethammer, a German forester, in the mid-nineties. Rupert began a generation of regenerative conservation and planted over 10,000 native trees across the property. In November 1995, the first guest was welcomed through the gates. Since then, the retreat has grown from 3 stone cottages to now 13 sustainably built stone and rammed earth cottages, 6 contemporary spa suites, and 9 architecturally designed residences. All positioned around the bay to make good use of the view. At the heart of the property remains the original 1838 Homestead, now home to the aptly named Homestead restaurant. 

Today..

Rupert’s daughter and current owner, Marie Von Haniel, continues to advance her late father’s vision for the property, alongside Piermont’s dedicated team. 

Seaview Spa is the result of a unique collaboration between Selkie Wellness and Piermont, bringing together a shared passion for meaningful wellbeing experiences in one coastal setting. Set within a beautifully restored weatherboard cottage overlooking the sea, the spa has been thoughtfully created as a sanctuary for rest, renewal and meaningful connection to self. 

Inspired by the restorative power of the coast, our treatment menu brings together massage, facial and body therapies alongside five signature full-body rituals: Tidal, Stone, Salt, Bloom and Sea View. Each experience is designed as a complete sensory journey, where purposeful touch, active Australian botanicals and considered pacing work in harmony to create a complete nervous system reset.
