ZEM Wellness Clinic Altea is a five-star, medical-led wellness retreat overlooking the Mediterranean on Spain’s Costa Blanca. Combining advanced diagnostics with personalised detox and longevity programmes, it offers a refined and results-driven approach to health within an elegant luxury setting.
Designed for those seeking meaningful change rather than a simple spa break, ZEM blends clinical expertise with holistic therapies, movement and Mediterranean nutrition. The atmosphere remains calm and luxurious throughout, allowing guests to focus on restoring energy, improving long-term health and returning home feeling genuinely revitalised. Partners are welcome to accompany guests and enjoy the hotel’s luxury setting without committing to a structured wellness programme. This makes ZEM ideal for couples where one guest wishes to follow a dedicated health journey while the other relaxes and enjoys the facilities, spa and Mediterranean surroundings.
At ZEM Altea, the food is a true reflection of its philosophy — seasonal, beautifully presented and rooted in balance. The menus feel light yet deeply flavourful, with an emphasis on clean ingredients, delicate techniques and thoughtful combinations that nourish rather than overwhelm. Dining here isn’t rushed; it’s an experience designed to be savoured slowly.
What makes it even more special is their own organic farm. Much of what appears on your plate is grown just moments away — vegetables, herbs and fruits harvested at peak ripeness and brought straight to the kitchen. That connection between soil and table gives the cuisine a freshness and authenticity you can genuinely taste. It’s sustainable, intentional and entirely aligned with the calm, restorative spirit of ZEM.
And the service is truly five-star — warm, intuitive and effortlessly attentive. The team anticipate what you need before you even ask, delivering a level of care that feels personal rather than formal. It elevates the entire experience, making every meal feel considered, calm and quietly exceptional.
The rooms at ZEM Altea immediately set the tone — this is unmistakably a five-star hotel, not a clinical health retreat. Think generous proportions, natural textures, soft layered lighting and a calming neutral palette that feels sophisticated rather than sterile. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Mediterranean light, while private terraces create that effortless indoor-outdoor flow that makes you exhale the moment you arrive.
The beds are indulgently comfortable with high-quality linens, the bathrooms feel spa-like with oversized showers and beautiful finishes, and every detail — from the scent in the room to the placement of furnishings — feels curated. There’s a quiet luxury to it all: understated, refined and deeply comfortable.
You feel looked after, cocooned even — but never like you’re in a clinic. It’s wellness wrapped in elegance, where you can focus on feeling your best without sacrificing the pleasures and polish of a true five-star stay.
The Wellbeing Difference
It’s wellness without the clinical edge — where wellbeing feels indulgent, elegant and seamlessly woven into a truly five-star experience.
