Swimming pool

Swimming pool

Only natural products are used at the wellness centre: mud combined with the house mineral water, honey, milk and wine; the ancient cosmetics made by Profumo Santa Maria Novella in Florence are also organic.

Two suggestive swimming pools are open throughout the day: the main pool is heated to 32° C and is open to children of all ages, (staying in the hotel) whereas the other, with a water temperature of 34°C and various whirlpools, is reserved for adults. The mineral salts pool is only for adults (over 14). The two pools are open all day from 8 am to  8pm. Guests can choose from various types of whirlpools in both pools, such as whirlpool spa beds or chairs, lymphatic drainage, sheet or waterfall jets. The water ranges from 32° and 34° C, depending on the bath.  Below an enormous replica of the ‘Fountain of Youth’ painting there is the mineral salt bath with its innovative ‘Magnapool’ system. This system uses a blend of magnesium and chloride minerals that are absorbed though the skin at a cellular level, detoxifying the organism and thereby reducing stress, anxiety, aches and pains. The water is odourless, leaves no residues on the skin nor discolours hair; it is also extremely gentle and therapeutic on sensitive skins. The system is so environment-friendly that the circuit backwash can be used for irrigation.

Having a massage is one of the easiest ways of getting, or keeping healthy. On account of the extraordinary effects of massages, our spa offers a variety of massage techniques carried out by qualified staff in our massage cabins. Anxiety and stress vanish under expert masseur hands. A good massage improves blood circulation, relaxes muscles, aids digestion and stimulates the lymphatic system, thereby eliminating toxins. These benefits, combined with the pleasant feeling of being pampered rapidly create a magic and marvellous sensation of wellbeing.

Only using products from Officina Profumo Farmaceutica Santa Maria Novella we have created a large range of treatments: relaxation face cleansing, special face cleansing, male face cleansing, face massage, manicure and pedicure, waxing, scalp massage and mask.

Since time immemorial, wrapping the entire body, or part of it, in a substance containing special properties has been a popular wellness technique. After this treatment, the guest then floats on a thermo-spa bed, (but not in direct contact with the water) thereby experiencing a sensation of fullness similar to the one we once felt in our mother’s womb - like being suspended in a warm, timeless atmosphere. The body wrap can be a single treatment or combined with a massage to boost its beneficial effects. These are the fruit of a long process of preparation of mud with various properties and different colours in contact with our Sant'Orso mineral water, which originates at a depth of 450 metres close to the Bellevue.
