This amazing resort features an organic farm, two 18-hole golf courses designed by Kyle Phillips, several indoor and outdoor pools — both freshwater and mineral — nearly 2 km of private beach, tennis courts, a 4,000-square-metre spa, eight restaurants offering everything from Sicilian to Japanese cuisine, and four bars. In short, while relaxation is more than welcome here, boredom is out of the question.
