SAMAS, SPA FACILITY @ PARK HOTEL, KENMARE, CO. KERRY

The building has been designed to be at one with the stunning site surroundings. It has an affinity with nature, 50% being underground leaving a single storey low lying series of pavilions almost entirely enclosed in glass. These nestle in the mature wood in which they are set. The transition through the building is very much a journey for the senses punctuated with glimpses now and then of tall mature trees and Kenmare bay. A vitality pool has an infinity edge allowing the user to feel closer to the setting.
