The island of A Toxa features walking trails, thermal springs, a golf course, a small shopping centre less than half-a-mile from the hotel, and the unique Chapel of St Caralampio, which is covered in scallop shells. The fishing port of O Grove, known for its large indoor market hall and seafood restaurants, is less than a mile away and can be reached on foot via a level bridge that links Toxa to the mainland. The nearest bus stop from the hotel is approximately 500 yards away. The drive to/from the airport takes approximately two-and-a-quarter hours.
