Every cottage on the property comes with access to an infrared sauna, open to all guests. It is available all year round as an optional paid extra, with times arranged in advance with the owner.
An infrared sauna works differently from a classic Finnish sauna. Instead of heating the whole room, infrared panels warm your body directly, so the air temperature stays lower than in a Finnish sauna, even though you still sweat properly. For a lot of people it's the more comfortable option, easier to sit through a longer session since the air isn't as hot or dry.
The sauna is available all year round as an optional paid extra. Times are arranged individually with the owner, just let us know in advance and the sauna will be heated for the hour you choose. Details and the price are agreed when you book or once you arrive. That way you can pick the moment that suits you best, in the evening after a day of sightseeing or early in the morning.
A sauna session loosens up tired muscles after a long walk through Gdańsk's Old Town or a day at the beach. The heat helps you warm up on colder days and generally does your body good after being on your feet all day. It's also simply a good way to end the day, especially in winter, when it gets dark and cold outside early.
When you're comparing accommodation in Gdańsk, it's worth checking whether a place offers more than just a bed. Here, the sauna can be added to your stay as an optional paid extra, with the hour arranged in advance with the owner, which is worth keeping in mind if you're weighing up a cottage rental against a hotel room. Our cottages in Gdańsk are open all year, so the sauna is there for you in summer after the beach, and in winter when you just want to warm up. We especially recommend it on cooler days and evenings.
