| 5 REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Bathe by Aluume Most of the pools are 1.3 metres deep, while the communal soak stretches to 1.8 metres for full immersion. “It’s the perfect place to unwind after a day on the slopes or a day in the office,” Tim says. “We see local clients as just important as visitors.” Stage 2, already in planning, will add five more private pools by early 2026. A third stage may follow, with details still under wraps. Bathe also forms part of a broader wellness vision for Aluume. At the end of the year, the company plans to launch Thermae by Aluume – New Zealand’s first floating sauna, to be moored on Lake Wakatipu in Queenstown. Guests will be able to book both experiences via a shared ticketing booth at Steamer Wharf, creating what Tim calls “the ultimate adventure-relaxation package”. The move reflects a growing appetite for urban wellness experiences in tourism hotspots like Queenstown, where visitors are increasingly seeking both thrills and tranquility. “Thermae by Aluume and Bathe by Aluume are the exciting first steps in Aluume Wellness’ plan to further expand and cement itself in the health and wellness space,” Tim says. “We look forward to welcoming our very first customers to experience both.” This certificate is issued by an independent certification body accredited by JAS-ANZ, the product certification body appointed by the Chief Executive of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment under the Building Act 2004.

STEVE DENT 027 672 2243 steve@dentconstruction.co.nz www.dentconstruction.co.nz In the heart of Queenstown and amidst a growing wellness tourism sector, Dent Construction jumped at the opportunity to deliver a complex, high-end leisure infrastructure alongside Aluume Wellness. Commissioned by Aluume at the start of 2025, the hot pools project ‘Bathe’ is a flagship development offering a luxury wellness experience. The state-of-the-art commercial hot pools facility will showcase Dent Construction's commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and innovation in construction. The facility includes architecturally designed private and communal hot pools. One of the standout features of the project is its integration with the natural landscape. Each pool provides its own vantage point of the classic Queenstown mountain views. “Our involvement extended far beyond the traditional contractor role,” says Dent Construction Director, Steve Dent. “We worked closely with Tim, Erin the architect, engineers, and local council, ensuring every decision supported the client’s vision for a world-class wellness destination”. With the opportunity to work alongside Aluume coming soon after the completion of health and wellness centre O-Studio, Dent Construction was already well equipped to deliver a unique wellness facility. Dent Construction is known for its strong focus on collaboration, and this project was no exception. The team coordinated with multiple subcontractors and consultants under tight deadlines, ensuring milestones were met without compromising on quality or safety. From early-stage planning to final handover, Dent Construction is playing a pivotal role in bringing the architectural vision to life. The result will be a serene, modern complex that will become a community landmark and a magnet for wellness travellers. For Dent Construction, the hot pools development not only demonstrates their technical expertise but also reinforces their reputation for delivering premium, purpose-driven commercial spaces. As demand grows for health-focused recreational infrastructure, Dent Construction is poised to continue leading projects that combine innovation, functionality, and environmental responsibility.
