Whether you’re returning from the forested trails or stepping out of one of our 16 multifunctional event rooms, the transition into warmth and water helps your body downshift naturally.
- Complimentary for hotel guests: swimming pool, sauna and Turkish steam bath

Evening sessions can feel especially soothing as your schedule slows, allowing you to savor each step with intention and emerge ready for restful sleep.
Your gentle after-sundown routine: pool, sauna and steam bath
The sequence below is a calm, light-touch approach that pairs gentle movement with heat and steam. Listen to your body and keep each step comfortable.
Start with a calm swim
Begin with a relaxed dip in the pool to loosen muscles and settle your breathing. Gentle laps or easy floating help release tension from the day and prime your body for heat.
- Rinse briefly before entering the pool to refresh and reset.
- Move slowly and steadily; let your shoulders and lower back unwind.
- Step out when you feel lightly warmed and relaxed.
Warmth in the sauna
Transition to the sauna for comforting dry heat. The rise in temperature encourages circulation and a soothing sense of calm.
- Sit comfortably and focus on unhurried, even breaths.
- Keep sessions short and pleasant; step out for cool air whenever you wish.
- Hydrate between rounds to maintain balance.
Deep cleanse in the Turkish steam bath
Shift from dry heat to enveloping steam. The high humidity supports a deep sense of ease and can feel wonderfully clarifying for your skin and breathing.
- Breathe gently; let the warmth soften neck, shoulders and back.
- If you prefer, alternate with short cool-down breaks in fresh air.
Optional: Solarium (additional fee)
If you’d like to round off your routine with extra warmth, our solarium is available at an additional charge. Use it as a brief, optional finale for a touch of glow and comfort.
Practical tips for a restorative night
Elevate your evening wellness with these simple, actionable ideas:
- Hydrate smartly: Sip water before, between and after heat sessions.
- Light, nourishing dinner: Pair your routine with dinner at Restaurant De Baron, where dishes are prepared fresh with honest, locally sourced ingredients. Prefer a different setting? De Patio is also available on-site.
- Move gently: Combine short swims with unhurried heat—no need to push intensity in the evening.
- Cool down gradually: Allow your body to return to a comfortable temperature before heading to bed.
- Prioritize sleep comfort: Once back in your room, dim lights, disconnect from screens and let your body coast into rest.
- Respectful spa etiquette: Rinse before water or heat facilities, keep voices soft and give fellow guests space to relax.
- Listen to your body: If you feel lightheaded or overheated, step out, cool down and hydrate.
