The 200.000 sq. meters of parkland / fenced garden is a paradise for children, and with 700 olive trees, there are plenty of places for relaxing.
The private, gated swimming pool with Roman Steps is a real luxury, and this area is lit at night for those nocturnal swims (Note that outside of July and August the pool is heated using an air pump system. The temperature of the water will depend on the outside temperature, but in any event, the pool will be warmer than those without the heat pump).
