| Hotel |
The Hospes Maricel, luxurious hotel of five stars, was built in 1948. It re-opened in September 2002 after being abandoned for 15 years. Refurbishments were led by designer Xavier Claramunt who aimed to maintain intact the genuine spirit of the building. It offers 29 rooms, decorated in a modern and contemporary style.
Guests can enjoy relaxing oriental massage treatments under the private stone arches above the sea at the Bodyna Spa, wake up to the prize-winning Maricel Breakfast, pamper themselves with new gastronomic delights at Senzone restaurant, or partake of a magical sunset from the outdoor swimming pool. |
