Saint Haven began with a bold vision - to create a luxury wellness destination that brings everything under one roof.
Founded by Tim Gurner, one of Australia’s most prominent luxury developers, the concept draws inspiration from elite hospitality brands such as Soho House and Aman Resorts.
In late 2023, Saint Haven launched its first flagship location in Collingwood, Melbourne. Membership was capped at just 500, available by invitation only. As interest grew, the brand amassed a waitlist of over 20,000 people - a clear sign they had created something special.
More Than Just a Gym
Saint Haven goes beyond traditional fitness. The brand blends performance training, recovery, hospitality, and design into a seamless, five-star experience. Every detail is meticulously considered — from architecture and materials to room-specific aromatherapy. The atmosphere feels more like a luxury hotel than a health club, with calm, discreet service and thoughtful touches at every turn.
At Saint Haven, training is just the beginning. Members move through a journey of movement, recovery, and ritual.
Highlights of the Collingwood club include:
- Strength and conditioning zones featuring Technogym equipment
- A dedicated Pilates Reformer studio and candlelit yoga sessions
- Cryotherapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and infrared saunas
- A 35°C thermal mineral pool inside a candlelit bathhouse
- Ice baths, filtered steam rooms, and a meditation cave for breathwork
- ŌURA Rings to track sleep, with integrated wellness data and custom scents per room
- An organic wholefood restaurant offering nutrient-rich meals and snacks
Expansion Ahead
With Collingwood setting a new standard, Saint Haven is now expanding. New locations are in development in South Yarra, Toorak, and Bondi Beach. Internationally, Dubai is confirmed for 2025, with U.S. expansion also underway.
Saint Haven brings five-star hotel service into the wellness space - treating wellbeing as a lifestyle, not a transaction. As more people seek immersive, experience-led fitness, Saint Haven is already one step ahead.
