The new SPA will feature an overflow indoor swimming-pool, including water jets, a multi-jet bath, two hammams (Turkish steam baths), two saunas, a relaxation area, an outdoor jacuzzi and 6 rooms offering a variety of luxurious treatments including: aromatherapy, beauty, rejuvenating, revitalising and anti-stress programmes as well as traditional and oriental massages. Among the specialized treatments available are Thermo Spa Concerto Treatment (consisting of three phases: mud wrap, foot reflexology and scalp massage), Thalatherm (steam bath with algae or mud wraps), Shiatsu massage and a wide selection of beauty and facial treatments.

A large variety of trees and plants have been introduced in the gardens to enhance our privileged location within the heart of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve. The Lagoon Side rooms now offer unparalleled spectacular views across the Ria Formosa Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean, and a new secluded garden area has been created facing the Golf Side rooms, offering more privacy for the lower floors. Seven new connecting rooms have been opened up, adding to a total of 18 rooms now available for families.

The renovation also includes the improvement of the parking area, access road and the entrance of the hotel and the refurbishment of three elegant meeting rooms offering exclusive meeting and banqueting facilities from 10 to 125 persons.

The new spa facilities will be available from mid-February. In the meantime, the fitness room and two massage rooms will be open. For more information, including our luxurious one, two, three, five and six day spa programmes, do not hesitate to contact us.
