When checking into the spa, the friendly staff provided us a quick tour of the spa facilities which included full amenities in the locker room, two outdoor heated pools, an indoor heated pool, relaxation room, sauna, steam room and complimentary refreshments. Don’t forget to bring your swimsuits like we did. But they have you covered with a Spa Boutique where I purchased my new favorite swimsuit!

We started by relaxing in the outdoor pools first. This was my first time in a heated pool and it felt amazing! It’s truly one of the best ways to relax and enjoy a few romantic hours together. We also spent time in the Jacuzzi and indoor bath. The spa offers only the best spa services to fit your needs, from body scrubs, facials and massages.
