When complete, the InterContinental Barossa Resort & Spa will feature an enticing selection of dining options, including a 130-seat signature restaurant showcasing Australia’s finest flavors and culinary experiences with a contemporary edge. Its lounge bar, outdoor garden terrace and signature Club InterContinental will further provide stylish settings in which to relax and unwind.
Other Resort amenities will include a pool, a comprehensive day spa and a well-equipped fitness centre, making it the ideal destination for corporate retreats, romantic escapes, wellness seekers, special events, and group getaways.
