Dive Into a World of Well-Being
Aqua Spa
From the moment you step inside our Aqua Spa, the outside world fades into the background.
There are never more guests than what feels right. Let the water and the calm of the space embrace you — you’ll feel your shoulders relax and your senses awaken. When you leave us, flowers will smell sweeter, wine will taste better, and you will feel recharged and renewed.
This is salus per aqua — health through water — in the truest, original sense of the word spa.

The Garden By The Sea
“Storebælt” & “Storebæltsbroen”
Kerteminde – the essence of a Danish harbor town
Nestled along “Storebælt”, it’s a cozy town deeply connected to both the sea and nature. “Storebælt” is the body of water that separates Zealand and Lolland on one side, and Funen and Langeland on the other. “Storebæltsbroen” connects Funen to Zealand, making travel between the regions quick and convenient.
In Kerteminde, “Storebælt” plays an natural part of the experience. Whether you’re strolling through the town or relaxing by the water, the sea is never far away. Panoramic views and easy access to the coast can be found in almost every corner of the town.
This unique “closeness” to both nature and sea draws visitors from near and far.
Get ready for a delightful stay in Kerteminde — where charming harbor scenes, porpoises playing in the waves, and fallow deer along the shoreline all await you in this scenic northwestern corner of Storebælt.
Hotel
Room 11-15
Tucked gently into the landscape, you’ll find our 15 rooms — designed with Nordic elegance and understated charm — ready to welcome you to a hotel experience like no other. Every detail has been carefully considered to make you feel right at home.
After a day filled with golf, spa indulgence, and fine dining, retreat to your room and unwind as the day slowly fades.
We look forward to welcoming you.
