Make the most of your stay by enjoying the wellness and spa facilities, or get fit by hiring a cycle to explore the length of the smooth flat promenade.
If that sounds too hot and sweaty for you, you can always hire a car from the front desk instead, to explore a little further afield after a tasty breakfast from the immense buffet!
