The on-site shop sells all the basics and Tesco is two minutes away if you want to cook in your apartment. We do takeout too!

Facilities for Parents

It’s your holiday too. With everything on-site, you can swap “parent duty” in seconds. While one enjoys a quiet sauna, the other is just a few minutes away by the pool.  With on-site facilities and accommodation all close by, it’s easy to fit in some individual me-time around kids’ activities.

Simple. Flexible. Fun. For Everyone!

While your partner is supervising the kids in PlayZone, why not sneak off for a swim or sauna?

Take a break in a cafe or on our sunny terrace - me time + great coffee and a treat is a winning combination.

Why not book up for a treatment - one of you can make some me time while the other is busy with the kids
