FAQs
We will be on hand to guide you on how to make the most from your sauna experience & how to add water to the stones. It’s your time, so feel free to move in and out of the sauna as you please to cool down.
We advise utilising the sauna for a maximum of 10-15min at a time.
If you wish to add on a sauna treatment, (we have lovely salt scrubs, face masks and aromatherapy scents), please ensure you select this during the booking stage.
Below are our FAQ’s, if you need any further information.

Rescheduling for saunas booked in error will only be accommodated with at least 72 hours' advance notice. This is in line with our standard rescheduling policy. Unfortunately, no adjustments or rescheduling can be made after the scheduled date and time, as this creates a financial strain on our business. When a sauna seat has been missed, inputs, staffing & space allocation has already been made.
-
If you are unable to make your sauna session and require a refund, we can provide you with a full refund or credit note provided we have 96hrs/4 days notice. This is to provide us with sufficient time for your space to be rebooked.
Please email:- oceansoulsauna@gmail.com with your details.
If notified within the 96hr/4day window, we regret that we will be unable to provide a refund. However, all sessions are transferable to another person.
We regret that we are unable to reschedule one off courses or events.

If you have a group larger than 8, we ask that you book multiple 55-minute sessions back to back, to ensure everyone can fully enjoy the sauna.
Only 8 people will be allowed in the sauna at any time no matter on size of group.
If you have any specific requests or celebrations in mind, please feel free to message us directly.
Group Booking Prices for those who wish to sauna 55mins only:-
This information is outlined on the ‘info’ section of each booking slot.
Groups up to 10 people = £100 sauna session (55mins)
Groups up to 12 people = £150 sauna session (55mins)
Groups of 13 - 20 people = £150 + £10.00 per person surcharge (55mins)
Groups 20+ please contact us directly before making a booking for a quote.
The additional charge helps us maintain the temperature in the sauna, which will require more wood due to frequent movements in & out of the sauna by larger groups in short sessions.
-
We have a very small changing space at the front of the sauna, which is partially private. This is available for private bookings only. We advise coming prepared with your swimsuit underneath or bringing a changing robe.
No changing space for shared sauna - This area will not be available during shared sauna sessions due to obstructing other customers moving in and out of the sauna.
As we are an off-grid set up, we are unable to offer lockers for personal items, so please leave expensive & breakable items at home or in your car, as we cannot take responsibility for any losses.
We do have suitable space to store beach bags & rucksacks if needed.
