Amazing ! The expensience was more around the talent of the professionals masseuses than the place in it self. The masseuses were so competent and kind, it was a pleasure and the different massages plus the access to the sauna, ice room, hammam and swimming pool was great. Very much worth the price !! Although, the building in itself and the work on the mood was not quite there.

So, the bath/scrub/tea/massage experience and the setting were great—something you have to try at least once in your life. However, when I arrived, the manager was on the phone and didn’t even bother to hang up... Luckily, a lady with perfect English welcomed me, and the layout is indeed “poorly designed” because you have to walk past the front desk in just a towel—which isn’t exactly ideal.

I was at the Hamam in a rainy and windy winter afternoon. First of all I enjoyed the professional massage which relaxed the whole body! Than I waited my turn in a great swimming pool, where I could enjoy the sauna. After a while I entered the ancient hamam, lyed on the warm marmor table gor the ritual of hamam. I loved everything but mostly the head massage! I will come again!

Very nice place and unique experience, too bad they rushed us. Not even time to put the mask on my face that they made me rinse it off after two minutes and then made me sit down again because they hadn't even served tea yet.

The beginning was a bit long, i think they was late so we stay a little more than 1 hour in the hotel pool with kids and other people. But after that everything was perfect. The place, the service, the scrub and the mousse was so relaxating. We are in paradise. And after that, the 30min massage was the apogee of this experience. I recommand this place, just be aware that is could be a bit long at the beginning but it is worthwhile ! Thanks you very much Cintra !

I had the time of my life! The hammam, the scrub and especially the foam massage were simply incredible. The welcome was perfect, with a very professional and caring man who spoke French and put me at ease straight away. The massage was of a rare quality, relaxing, precise and done with great care. I left feeling relaxed and refreshed. I recommend it 100%! 💆‍♀️🌿

The place is a bit outdated and could use some renovation. The staff is very friendly and highly competent.
