TERMS & CONDITIONS
Effective July 2025
Welcome to Drift Saunas. We're thrilled to share the first floating sauna experience on the Swan River with you. These Terms & Conditions help ensure everyone has a safe, respectful, and enjoyable time. By booking with us, you agree to the following:

Safety & Guest Conduct

All guests must sign our waiver before entering the sauna — it's part of staying safe.

Sauna use isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional.
Respect for the Environment

If severe weather or safety concerns arise, we may reschedule or cancel your session.

You’ll receive a full refund or credit in those situations — your safety is our priority.

Drift Saunas is not liable for injury, illness, loss, or damage where guests have not followed guidance, signage, or their own health limits.
