Facilities include nine treatment rooms across a main spa building and six private suites; an outdoor relaxation garden; a thermal hydrotherapy circuit; and a beauty boutique. The treatment rooms feature 13 massage tables and two treatment tubs, while a sauna and a steam bath; rain showers; a whirlpool; and a plunge bath feature in the hydrotherapy circuit.

Services and products from the US-based brand Pevonia are used at the spa, which offers a number of unique treatments such as the Myoxy-Caviar High Performance Facial. A spokesperson for the resort said: "The new facility, accented by rich materials like natural stone and wood, was custom designed to reflect the understated elegance of the resort."
