Complimentary gourmet canapés are available throughout the day. The perfect setting to enjoy live music while indulging on the resort’s daily complimentary sundowners.

SOLASTA SPA

Solasta Spa is dedicated to subtly transformative moments – to stillness, the release of tension, the childlike liberation of unfettered movement. A moment to catch your breath; another to expel it. To dispel fatigue, or wholeheartedly embrace it. To revel in the freedom of a quiet mind. All at your own pace, in your way and at a time that suits your purpose. Free from rigidity and restraint.

Three glass-bottomed, over-water treatment pavilions await at any hour. Or bring the spa to your house with an in-house treatment. Begin or end your moment in the sauna, steam bath or open-air bath. Surrender to utter bliss in one of the resort’s two over-water relaxation lounges. Solasta Spa, focuses on natural healing, enhanced by organic products by Maison Caulières and Omorovicza.
