SPA-turné på västkusten: Stenungsbaden Yacht Club

2018-05-01

(I samarbete med Stenungsbaden & Avéco. Innehåller reklam.)
Efter två nätter på TanumStrand åkte vi söderöver. Andra stoppet på min och Mattias lilla SPA-turné på västkusten blev härliga Stenungsbaden! Jag har varit där en gång tidigare för många år sedan och tyckte mycket om det, både SPA-avdelningen och hela hotellatmosfären. Väl incheckade den här gången insåg jag att det var precis lika fint som jag mindes det – fast ännu finare! Jag är helt säker på att hotellet fått sig ett ansiktslyft nyligen, för standarden är verkligen tip top. Allt är så minutiöst genomtänkt och designmässigt inrett, från små handskrivna skyltar till materialval av träpanel till generösa mässinglampor till Chesterfield-soffor… Det är svårt att beskriva känslan, men tänk dig fräsch Newport-stil med en touch av genuin svensk lyx och genomgående marin prägel. Där har du den. Känslan.


Rummet vi fick (nr 310) låg på samma våning som SPA. Just det rummet är ett deluxe-rum med en alldeles speciellt feeling som jag inte upplevt på många andra hotell: panoramafönster. Även om jag normalt sett inte är en person som tillbringar särskilt mycket tid på rummet så uppskattar jag verkligen känslan jag får med den här typen av ljusinsläpp. Rymligt och inbjudande,  med soldränkta Hake fjord som djupblå fond… Ett stort plus för generöst tilltagna förvaringsmöjligheter, kylskåp/minibar, och ett luftigt badrum med lyxiga, väldoftande produkter. Rent inredningsmässigt gillar jag speciellt den maffiga sittpuffen och tripodlampan med lanterna/strålkastarfeeling bredvid soffgruppen. På något vis blev sittpuffen och lampan centrala i rummet trots sängen som annars brukar vara mittpunkten. Kika på den korta videon, så får du se själv:

Vi hann släppa av våra saker på rummet innan det var dags för oss att låta både kläder och eventuell stress falla till golvet, för att omfamnas av varsin mjuk, vit, lagom tunn morgonrock och låta fötterna glida in i varsitt par badtofflor som fick leda oss till SPA-avdelningen…

Jag hade bokat in Stenungsbadens egen energigivande, renande SPA-ritual, som tar en stund att göra tillsammans (eller på egen hand om du vill det). Härliga Kerstin Florian-produkter fick följa med oss in i olika bastu-miljöer, till pooler och fick ett avslut i den fina runda regnskogsduschen. Skönt och välgörande för både kropp och själ.

Efter en stunds slappande och allmänt småprat med de tre fantastiskt serviceinriktade och glada själarna som jobbar i SPA-receptionen var det dags för oss att gå en trappa upp för att få varsin behandling! Jag valde en djupverkande hot stone-massage med varma lavastenar och olja. (Låter inte helt fel, va?) och Mattias fick klassisk helkroppsmassage. Efter det orkade vi inte mycket annat än att masa oss tillbaka till rummet i sakta mak för en stunds välbehövlig vila efter vilan och blev välkomnade av ett äkta VIP-treatment (”Bubblande gott”) med en halvflaska skumpa och smågodis som Någon smugit in på rummet. Så lyxigt!
Väl värt att boka till om du vill unna dig något speciellt!

Bubbel & godis!

En tupplur senare och lite tillpiffning på det, så var vi redo för trerätters på Captain´s Table. Ett bord nära fönstret med storslagen utsikt utanför, väntade oss. Kvällens meny var Pilgrimsmussla – Kalvfilé – Crème Brûlée. Otippat nog valde vi det föreslagna vinpaketet till, trots att ingen av oss egentligen gillar vitt vin. Och tur var väl det (att vi valde vinpaketet alltså), för vi blev glatt överraskade! Och maten… Maten var alldeles förträfflig. Jag är en förrätts- och efterrättsmänniska, medan Mattias fokuserar på varmrätten. En bra kombo om en vill norpa nåt från den andres tallrik, eller hur?

Stenungsbaden bjöd på Piano Lounge just denna kväll, vilket var väldigt trevligt. En jätteduktig pianist levererade ljuva toner i retaurangen genom hela middagen. Vår ambition var att upptäcka The State Room – Stenungsbadens egen rom-bar – efter middagen! Vi älskar ju rom. Men tydligen lockade John Blund oss mer än rom, för vi orkade inget annat än att med stinna magar först vagga ner till rummet och krypa ner i sängen. Jätteskönt efter en lång dags avslappning, med så mycket härliga intryck…
Nästa morgon hade vi chansen att ta för oss av den härliga, stora frukostbuffén innan det blev tryck i matsalen… Superfräsch och fin frukost med så många val! Som vanligt lyckades jag fylla tallriken med massa gott innan jag hittade den hemgjorda räkröran.
Åh.
Så.
G O T T !
Mattias njöt nog mer än jag (om det ens är möjligt?).
Jag hittade också den hemmagjorda vaniljyoghurten. Jag trodde inte att jag någonsin skulle tipsa någon om att satsa på en hotellfrukost för deras vaniljyoghurt, men det är faktiskt något ovanligt gott med just den! Tyvärr ville inte personalen avslöja hemligheten bakom just yoghurten – eller räkröran för den delen! – men de lovade att hälsa kökspersonalen att det fanns två lyriska gäster som ville ta med dem hem. 🙂
(Kökspersonalen alltså. Tänk att vakna till dessa delikatesser varje morgon!)

Efter frukosten kände vi oss manade att gå ut en runda för att njuta av naturen.
Visst är det vackert vid havet, trots att solen lyste med sin frånvaro?

Efter en stund kikade solen fram.
Det är verkligen ljuvligt, och det gör det extra roligt att ta foton också!

Efter en nätt biltur på strax över tre timmar landade vi hemma i lilla Lödde, väldigt nöjda med hela helgen.
Tack för den här gången, Stenungsbaden! Vi ses igen. <3

  2. The ghost town that has stood empty for more than a century
    [url=https://financebar.net/company/unite-live]гей порно парни[/url]
    There’s a large and very dignified school in Kayakoy. There are narrow streets, lined with houses, that wend and rise up both sides of a steep valley. There’s an ancient fountain in the middle of the town. And there are churches, one with million-dollar hilltop views over the blue Aegean.

    But, for most of the past 100 years, there have been no people.

    Kayakoy, in southwestern Turkey’s Mugla Province, is a true ghost town. Abandoned by its occupants and haunted by the past. It’s a monument, frozen in time – a physical reminder of darker times in Turkey.

    With hillsides dotted by countless crumbling buildings slowly being swallowed by greenery, and endless views into vanished lives, it’s also a fascinating and starkly beautiful place to visit. In summer, under clear skies and blazing suns, it’s eerie enough. Even more so in cooler seasons, wreathed in mountain or sea mists.
    Just over a century ago, Kayakoy, or Levissi as it was known, was a bustling town of at least 10,000 Greek Orthodox Christians, many of whom were craftspeople who lived peacefully alongside the region’s Muslim Turkish farmers. But in the upheaval surrounding Turkey’s emergence as an independent republic, their simple lives were torn apart.

    Tensions with neighboring Greece after the Greco-Turk war ended in 1922 led to both countries ejecting people with ties to the other. For Kayakoy, that meant a forced population exchange with Muslim Turks living in Kavala, in what is now the Greek region of Macedonia and Thrace.

    But the newly arrived Muslims were reputedly less than happy with their new home, swiftly moving on and leaving Kayakoy to fall to ruin.

  8. Roland Garros is loud ahead of epic clash between Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. Here’s how to watch.
    [url=http://cryptobossca.online]cryptoboss казино[/url]
    The first match of the day is about to get going at Court Philippe-Chatrier here at Roland Garros and it is going to be an electric afternoon in the Paris sunshine.

    Today’s first contest is a second-round encounter in the women’s tournament between France’s Diane Parry and Poland’s Iga Swiatek. While the home nation’s crowd will certainly be behind Parry, it’s the second clash on the schedule that has everyone’s mouths watering.

    Rafael Nadal, the ‘King of Clay’ and 14-time winner of the French Open held annually on this court, is the sentimental favorite. Nadal has endeared himself to the Paris faithful over the years with his dominance of the French Open and is attempting to make one final run for gold on what could potentially be one of his last runs on these famous clay courts as he alludes to a career which is slowly winding down.

    Meanwhile, for Novak Djokovic — the winner of 24 grand slams, the most all-time in the men’s game — Nadal is a major obstacle to the one title he hasn’t won: an Olympic gold medal. The Serb has been open about his desire to win his first gold.

    Nadal eked out a win in three sets on Sunday in his first-round match while Djokovic cruised on Saturday in his opening contest. The Spaniard has fought injuries for much of the last two years and his opponent will be favored — but there’s just something different about the Spaniard playing on Roland Garros’ clay.

  9. The latest on the Paris Olympics

    The Olympic tennis tournament is underway, but the red clay of Roland Garros is missing some of the sport’s biggest stars, including world no. 1 Jannik Sinner.

    While some are sidelined by illnesses and injuries, others are abstaining as a result of the professional circuit’s brutal schedule this summer.

    Between the French Open, Wimbledon and the US Open, summer is always a busy season for those chasing an elusive Grand Slam title. Though the rest of the sports world sees the Olympics as the ultimate competition, the Games’ anthem falls flat amidst the prestigious yearly summer tournaments in Paris, London and New York.

    Ben Shelton, the rising 21-year-old US star ranked No. 14 in the world, said the Olympics fall at a tough time in the tournament schedule, as he will be coming off a stint in Europe and wants to prepare for the US Open.

    “Having to go back to Europe to play on clay, a different surface – it kind of messes up a few lead-up tournaments to the US Open that I would play if I wasn’t playing the Olympics,” Shelton told reporters in the spring.

  35. End of an era: The big change coming to European travel in November
    [url=https://rabota-webcams.ru/]работа на дому вебка модель[/url]

    In travel news this week: an accidental megadeal on first-class tickets, the world’s best-connected airport and why now is a good time to plan a trip to Europe. Plus a bit of relief for those of you traveling this Labor Day weekend.

    Goodbye to EU passport stamps
    Paper mementoes of our travels, from boarding cards to even passports themselves, are fast moving into obsolescence.

    The inky, smudgy joy of a fresh passport stamp will be a thing of the past for visitors to the 29 countries of the European Union Schengen Area starting November 10. That’s when the new automated Entry/Exit System (EES) comes into effect.

    It’s separate from the delayed ETIAS visa waiver program, which is due to start in the first half of 2025 and will mean travelers from outside the EU will be charged a €7 entry fee that is valid for three years.

    Il dolce far niente – “the sweetness of doing nothing” – has been perfected by Italians on their vacations in southern sweet spots such as Naples, Ischia, Puglia, the Amalfi Coast and Capri. These remarkable photographs by UK photographer Lucy Laucht show how to relax the Italian way.

    Finally, if you’re considering a longer stay, an idyllic Swedish town is selling off land with prices so low you might think they’re mistakes. But Gotene, 320 kilometers (200 miles) southwest of Stockholm, is indeed selling plots with prices starting at just 1 krona, or 9 US cents, per square meter (11 square feet).

  36. This city is developing the world’s tallest timber tower, again
    [url=https://jobgirl24.ru/ ]работа для девушек уфа[/url]
    The US city of Milwaukee is already home to the world’s tallest timber tower. But another, even taller, wooden skyscraper could be added to its skyline, designed by Vancouver-based studio Michael Green Architects (MGA).

    The firm recently released plans for the development, which includes a 55-story tower made principally from mass timber — thick, compressed, multilayered panels of solid wood. If built, it would usurp the current world title holder, the 25-story Ascent tower by Korb + Associates Architects, as well as becoming the tallest building in the state of Wisconsin.

    MGA, which specializes in wooden architecture, hopes that the project will set a “new global benchmark for mass timber construction.”

    The project is part of the redevelopment of the Marcus Performing Arts Center, which opened in 1969 and won the Honor Award for Excellence in Architectural Design from the American Institute of Architects in 1970. Led by Neutral, which bills itself as a “regenerative development company,” the redesign will transform what is currently the center’s concrete parking lot into a space with residential units, offices, restaurants, cafes, grocery stores and public plazas. According to MGA, construction will cost an estimated $700 million. The plan is currently going through the city’s approval process, during which it is expected to evolve.

    Why timber?
    While the use of mass timber is steadily increasing worldwide, thanks to changes in building regulations and shifting attitudes towards the material, it has yet to match the sheer height of buildings made of concrete and steel — although a slew of timber high-rises have been proposed in recent years. MGA says its tower design would be approximately 600 feet (182 meters) tall — more than double the 284 feet (87 meter) tall Ascent tower.

    “The race for height is important,” said Michael Green, an architect and founder of MGA. “It’s not about showing off, it’s about showing what’s possible to the public.”

    He argued that the reason timber skyscrapers haven’t yet become mainstream is because climate change hasn’t been at the center of the conversation. “We didn’t really need to challenge the status quo of steel and concrete,” he said. “But because those materials are so hard on the climate, we had to find a different way to build towers and big buildings in general.”
