Italy: Wellbeing hotel Casin’Anand Green Resort has opened in the town of Novoli in Puglia, housed in a 17th century country home.
Casin’Anand Green Resort offers 10 bedrooms, an apartment which sleeps up to four people, and a suite. There are bar stations on each floor for guests to make herbal teas.
F&B venues include three bars and the restaurant Olio e Sale, which will host themed nights and culinary events.
Other amenities include a yoga room for meditation and workshops, an outdoor swimming pool, two spas, a fitness area, and a games room equipped with billiards, pinball, table football and ping pong. There’s also a five-a-side football field and an open-air bar.
The hotel’s main spa offers a frigidarium for cold water immersion, a hammam and “emotional showers”. The second spa offers a jacuzzi pool, a Finnish sauna, balneotherapy facilities and treatment rooms.
Located on five hectares of land, the outdoor space at Casin’Anand Green Resort includes a small church, orchards, olive trees, and various gardens such as the Sicilian Garden with beehives. The land will also hold photovoltaic panels to convert solar energy into electricity and rainwater will be collected in lakes and repurposed for agricultural use.
Guests will have the opportunity to contribute to the outdoor space by planting their own tree.
Speaking about the concept, the hotel’s owner said: “Casin’Anand was born out of the need to be a tangible example of the change we all talk about – a desire to create a place where yoga and nature come together like the sky and the earth. Guests are invited to experience true luxury, characterised by harmonious authenticity, by returning to the appreciation of each moment of the “here and now” and by planting a seed for a better future.”
