It’s likely that when you tell your friends that you love enjoying sports while on holiday, they’ll think you’re crazy. Although it’s a time meant for catching up on rest, it’s also the perfect opportunity to forget about your daily routine and spend time focusing on other activities. That’s why many people choose sport hotels where they can make the most of the top sports facilities in a perfect environment for training outdoors.
