The coastal Italian town of Jesolo is to become home to its first five-star hotel offering when the Almar Jesolo Resort & Spa opens this May.

Being developed by Trentino Real Estate, the 12,000sq m (129,000 sq ft) resort will be managed by the Boccato family.

The resort’s spa is to be set out over 2,000sq m (21,500 sq ft) on two floors and will offer guests a range of choices from a comprehensive menu of wellness treatments.

To accompany these treatments, the year-round facility also boasts a Turkish bath, sauna, an ice room and a thunderstorm room, which provides a multi-sensory experience for guests.

Other features of the resort include a restaurant and a 70-metre long swimming pool with an overhanging bridge that leads directly to a private beach.

The hotel itself features 197 bedrooms and penthouse suites, along with a conference centre with 650 seats and a children's club with a playground.

“Almar wants to give a voice to a new concept of hotel business, characterises with the concept of the modern accommodations featuring places for relaxation, freedom, variety of services and conference centres,” said Luca Boccato. “This project will also address the need of extending the summer season in Jesolo and keeping the hotels in full service at least for 9 months of the year.”

The first 100 guests to book a stay with the hotel are to receive a special offer from the Almar.
