Negombo Thermal Gardens - Ischia
A truly gorgeous place and our favourite of all - this is their large saltwater pool.
One small word of warning, with Microsoft's Internet Explorer we sometimes have
difficulties with their website, and you may be better to use, say, Mozilla's Firefox
In 2011 their re-opening date after winter was April 21st..

Onphalos at Negombo
One of the 20+ different pools and other water features scattered around the site.
Set in a 12 metre deep tufa cave, 4m high, there's a warm water relaxation pool, as well as
a sauna cave, cold water well and a deep thermal plunge pool.
Outside there's a row if seats under water spouts, with three jets for neck and back massage.
