Nea Spa, located on the lower level of Air Palace Hotel, is open to hotel guests at no additional charge, and open to the public for a fee. During my visit I had the pool to myself! The staff speak a little English and with my little Italian, we manged to get the message across. I rented a pair of flip flops and I stopped by the pool each day of my stay. The spa offers a whirlpool tub (turn it on before entering, switch is on the wall, near floor level between the pool and whirlpool tub) with two Chroma-therapy areas on either side of the bench seat. There is also a turkish bath, sauna, Chroma-therapy shower with a salt scrub mixture available to guests. The showers are behind the pool, near the massage room: two open bay and two with doors for privacy. Bring a towel with you as none was offered, although as a hotel guest, I brought one from the room and didn't think to ask for one! I made an appointment for a deep tissue massage and the masseuse did a wonderful job! It was both relaxing and worked out the knots in my back and shoulders. The masseuse was very sweet and funny. It was a very pleasant experience. After the massage she recommended I hop in the whirlpool for a bit, which I did. Then I made myself an herbal tea, available to guests in the pool area, and relaxed on one of the lounge chairs before hopping in the pool for a gentle swim. The ambiance here is so calming. It's an experience away from the cares of the day where you can indulge and relax. Wish I lived in the area so I could visit more often. Update Oct 2017: On my last visit I got an aromatherapy relaxing massage. I can not even express how lovely this massage was! The masseuse did an amazing job and I was on cloud nine the rest of the day. You really should give this a try. read more
