- **Da Vinci Spa** — A 2,000 m² wellness oasis with saunas, a heated outdoor pool, whirlpool, Kneipp barefoot walkway, treatment rooms, and a romance garden with a heart-shaped pond.
- **Pur Pur Bar** — Atmospheric hotel bar and lounge with dramatically high-backed chairs, ideal for an apéro.

- **Chocolate-coconut spa treatment** — A couples' treatment involving warm coconut and chocolate packs applied in a private steam bath, followed by hot chocolate.
- **Dining at Restaurant Goldstück** — Multi-course dinner with dishes such as pumpkin variations, suckling pig, and pear with caramel ice cream; the cheese selection is particularly recommended.
