Sticking with the ‘physical activity’ theme, the Iberostar Grand Bávaro possesses an exclusive fitness centre with the added option of a Personal Trainer to spur you along should you need one.

The centres are fully equipped to ensure you can work every muscle in your body, in preparation for the day ahead. Alternatively, why not participate in one of the many fun guided classes on offer.

Activities including sports / water sports are also available, some of which are at an additional cost.

The Iberostar Grand Bávaro also boasts a Spa overlooking the Caribbean Sea which features a whirlpool and Turkish baths. Here you can pamper yourself in a chocolate body rub, spoil yourself with a facial, unwind in the sauna, or take part in Yoga or tai chi sessions close to the serene waterfront.

You really do have it all here to unwind and relax to the max!

Most unique to the Iberostar Grand Bávaro is the spectacular reproduction of a sailing ship; the Spanish Galleon within a central artificial lagoon, which is just one of the bars on offer serving premium alcoholic drinks and much more.
