Water completes the wellness journey. Multiple pools are positioned to mirror the horizon, offering sweeping views across the sea and surrounding hills. Whether swimming in the early morning light or drifting through the warmth of the afternoon, the pools feel contemplative rather than performative—spaces for stillness, reflection, and unhurried time.
