WELLNESS CENTERS

Thalasso Clinic

The Palasiet Thalassotherapy Center is the hotel’s main pride. It was founded by Dr. Joaquín Farnós, a cardiologist who, in 1970, was one of the first in Spain to introduce seawater therapy and created a new-format center. Palasiet is considered the starting point of thalassotherapy development in the country.

Today, the complex covers more than 2,700 m² and combines the traditions of classical thalassotherapy with modern technologies. Its main area is the Biomarine Circuit: a large heated seawater pool, hydromassage loungers, waterfalls, and relaxation zones. To train the cardiovascular system, there is a contrast pool with cool water, as well as a salt room, steam rooms, and various types of jacuzzis.

In a separate part of the center are treatment rooms for seaweed and mud therapies, massage halls, physiotherapy and cosmetology rooms. The complex also includes a modern gym and studios for yoga and pilates. Outdoor terraces with pools and relaxation areas open onto the Mediterranean Sea.
