Food & Drink

The all-inclusive dining programme covers buffet and specialist experiences across several resort settings. Available information supports Mediterranean flavours, sushi, international dishes, grilled food and teppanyaki-style dining. Poolside and ocean-facing venues allow meals and drinks to remain connected to the resort’s outdoor spaces.

Experiences & Activities

The resort’s facilities support active holidays as well as unstructured time around the beach and pools. A water park with slides adds a strong family element, while the children’s club provides organised activities for younger guests. The extensive pool complex forms a major focus of the grounds, and entertainment and sports broaden the programme beyond swimming. Couples can still find quieter time around the accommodation, oceanfront areas and wellness spaces while families use the dedicated recreation facilities.

SPA & Wellness

The resort includes a modern spa complex with wellness facilities for guests seeking time away from the busier pool and family areas. A sauna and steam room complement the treatment offering, while additional relaxation spaces support slower periods during the stay. Wellness can be combined with swimming, beach time and the resort’s wider activity programme. Individual massages, beauty treatments and other therapies should only be added once the current spa menu has been confirmed.
