What is the difference between the Main Spa and the Wellness?
The following table should help to understand:
 

The Main Spa: This area is meant for those that want to benefit from the thermal water without following a programme... to relax a few hours in warm water in order to forget tiredness, stress and muscular pains, and perhaps to have a massage.	The Wellness: For those that want to take advantage of all of Caldea's installations, that want to relax and receive treatments.  You may choose a pre established programme for 1 to 15 days or make up your own.
