This is paradise!


Looking back I’m sure we’ll easily see this as the best day of our honeymoon. It starts with a nice continental breakfast followed by a guided tour of the spa grounds. The guide is a local that seems to know just about anyone who was ever famous. Stories are told about Neil Young, Clint Eastwood and it even turns out he lives next to Flea from the chilli’s!
After the tour we have about an hour to chill so Isabella decides to do a little reading while I relax in the hot tub with the new york times.
Then the main event. A couples experience in the spa. It all begins with about 30 mins in the japanese hot baths and sauna.Afterwards we’re treated to a bubble bath together with a nice cup of team. Once we’re all soaked and relaxed we’re given an hour long deep tissue massage each. We practically float out of the room and I’m so relaxed I fall asleep back in the room for 3 hours while Isabella goes for a swim in the pool and does some more reading.
Later that evening feeling refreshed we head out to a local restaurant called Nepenthe. Its set out on a cliff and the views are amazing. We are seated near the fire and order cocktails and a 3 course meal. In the end we actually take the pudding home as despite all the sleep we’re starting to fade already. 
Once back in the room we open a bottle of wine and end up watching point break while eating our banana pie. We fall asleep utterly content.
