Absolutely amazing! My wife and I are on holiday (visiting from California) doing some various hikes on the wet Irish coast and we absolutely loved the opportunity to check out this sauna! Friendly and helpful staff with clean and secure facilities complete with showers, saunas, and cold pool. Not too crowded and perfect way to end the afternoon. 10/10 would recommend and would love to return for future trips.

First visit today. Sound staff, clean, modern and spacious. Has everything you need in terms of showers, changing area, plunge pool, toilet, access to drinking water. I paid 15€ for a Friday 45m session and had the place to myself. Great midweek deals include a free coffee.
