The impressive 5-star luxury hotel GRIFID Noa, newly built in summer 2024, impresses with its minimalist design in harmony with natural materials. The hotel features 503 rooms, distributed between the 12-story new building and the annex, which was renovated in winter 24/25. The standard rooms (D/DMS/DF2/DF3) are located in the annex. The bright and spacious lobby offers a 24-hour reception with a reception area, elevators, guest service provided by the "Grifid Angels," and a tasteful lobby bar, the "LIVING ROOM BAR" (approx. 3 PM – 2 AM). As an additional highlight, the hotel offers an exclusive Signature SplenDOOR floor with an adults-only relaxation concept (16+) featuring swim-up rooms, as well as a fascinating adults-only area (for all hotel guests 16+) on the rooftop terrace with an infinity pool and a Sky Bar for special moments of relaxation (sun umbrellas, sun loungers, and pool towels included). On the 11th floor, you can enjoy an exclusive panoramic view of the sea at the "Cigar Bar" (16+) (open from approx. 8 PM – 11 PM).
On the beach, there is an additional beach club with a pool (16+). On the 2nd floor, there is a relax pool with a sea view and sun loungers in the water (water depth 0.6 m) as well as a champagne/sparkling wine bar (sun loungers, sun umbrellas, and bath towels are also included here). Another swimming pool, a children's pool with slides (approx. 40 cm deep), the Moonshine Bar, and a "Waffle & Donut Station" are located directly on the beach. One sun umbrella and two loungers are included per room on the beach (only for 2 full-paying guests and subject to availability). Lifeguard service is provided at every pool (except the relax pool). The heated indoor pool (12+) and a whirlpool (16+) with a breathtaking sea view are a wonderful alternative for cooler days in the low season. For the youngest guests, there is a special highlight: the indoor pool basin with a depth of approx. 50 cm and a slide.
Culinary-wise, the hotel leaves nothing to be desired, both in the two main restaurants (divided by room category) with open-air terraces and in the 5 à-la-carte restaurants.
