Florence: Admission to the spa with wellness program and aperitif with platter

In Tuscany, wellness doesn’t always end with herbal tea. Sometimes it ends with a glass of wine and a beautiful plate of local cheese. This leisurely wellness and culinary experience brings together **two hours of spa time with the Italian ritual of aperitivo**, creating an easy escape for travelers who appreciate relaxation without giving up life’s pleasures. Begin in the heated swimming pool and whirlpool before exploring the wellness circuit at your own pace. Move from the dry warmth of the Finnish sauna into the enveloping steam room and gentler heat of the Vitarium, then experience the dramatic contrast of the snow room. Sensory showers add another element of water and temperature, while the Leg Comfort Area and dedicated rest spaces provide places to pause between experiences. When you’re ready for something quieter, retreat to the herbal tea room and linger over a selection of warm infusions before returning to your favorite part of the circuit. You only need to arrive with your swimsuit. Changing rooms with showers, lockers, and complimentary toiletries are provided, along with a complete spa kit including a bathrobe, towel, slippers, and swimsuit bag. But the experience doesn’t finish when the robe comes off. After your two hours of wellness, settle into the Bistro for an elegant **Italian aperitivo**. Choose a glass of wine or one of the selected classic cocktails, accompanied by a mixed platter of traditional Tuscan cured meats and cheeses—a distinctly local finale that shifts the experience from spa ritual to simple culinary pleasure. There is something particularly appealing about a wellness experience that makes room for both sauna and salumi, herbal tea and wine. **The luxury here is balance—not restriction.** **Best suited for:** Couples, friends, solo travelers, food and wine lovers, spa enthusiasts, and wellness-minded travelers looking for a shorter Italian escape that combines pools, sauna and steam, hot-and-cold experiences, quiet relaxation, and the deliciously Tuscan tradition of aperitivo.
