5* Baltic Sea hideaway with a Michelin-star restaurant

Historic charm meets five-star luxury and blissful wellness along Germany’s picturesque Baltic Sea coast - includes breakfast, optional dinner, and spa access

• Luxury by the sea: Nestled between Bad Doberan and Kühlungsborn on the Baltic Sea coast, the Grand Hotel Heiligendamm offers the perfect blend of historic charm and timeless seaside elegance. The hotel's interiors are a study in sophistication, with spacious suites and guest rooms featuring plush, silky furnishings, an abundance of natural light, and idyllic views of the surrounding landscape. Spend your days floating amidst the outdoor pool, admiring the glittering ocean waves, or digging your toes into the region’s fine, white sands, all before returning to your luxurious coastal retreat.

• Michelin-starred splendour: From the hand-painted silk wallpaper down to the sparkling chandeliers, every detail at the Michelin-starred restaurant Friedrich Franz is designed to delight and excite. Boasting 18 Gault Millau points, the restaurant serves seasonally-inspired gourmet cuisine using the finest of regional ingredients. For a slightly more casual affair, experience the creative cuisine of the Kurhaus Restaurant, head to the Baltic Sushi Bar for Japanese classics, or sink into a comfortable leather armchair at Nelson Bar. The Beach Club also provides the perfect backdrop for a chilled beachside drink, whilst the Medinis Restaurant offers an authentic taste of Italy.

• Calming coastal bliss: Unwind and rejuvenate at the hotel’s world-class spa. Spread across 3,000 square metres, indulge in a variety of sea treatments and Ayurveda techniques designed to calm the body, mind, and soul. Melt away your stresses in the steam bath, bio and Finnish sauna, cool down in the ice room, or swim laps in the warm waters of the indoor pool with integrated whirlpool. You could also keep up with your regular workout routines in the well-equipped fitness centre.
