Grupotel Gran Vista & Spa tttt<br />

“With its spa, gardens and a beach close by, this modern retreat pulls out the stops when it comes to relaxation.”<br />

Top marks have to go to the spa and wellness centre.<br />

With its earthy mosaic tiles and graceful Roman statuettes,<br />

it’s something of a pampering palace. Cue tingling essential<br />

oils showers, Turkish baths and an ice cave. For more by way<br />

of luxury, there’s an indoor pool, too, complete with skylights<br />

and half-submerged loungers.<br />

In fact, everywhere you go here there’s a real emphasis<br />

on relaxation. Step outside and you’re greeted by a lagoon<br />

pool where you can swim around palm-planted islands and<br />

ornamental waterfalls.<br />

Inside, meanwhile, the hotel is bright and fresh and uses<br />

pale-wood furnishings to good effect. <strong>The</strong> simple bedrooms<br />

have been treated to a recent facelift, and emerged in<br />

magnolia and russet shades. <strong>The</strong>y feature all the usual<br />

in-room extras such as satellite TVs, air-conditioning and<br />

good-sized balconies.<br />

On the food front, the buffet restaurant serves up a huge<br />

selection of dishes at every meal, including a healthy<br />

option menu. <strong>The</strong>re’s also a rooftop bar where you can gaze<br />

out over Ca’n Picafort’s pan-tiled houses to the mountains<br />

and sea beyond.<br />

Talking of the Med, it’s more or less on your doorstep.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sandy beach is just across a main road. <strong>The</strong> same<br />

pretty much goes for C’an Picafort itself. <strong>The</strong> hotel’s central<br />

position means you’re only 200 metres or so from its shops,<br />

bars and restaurants, so you can walk into town as and when.<br />
