The vestibule, marked with an inscription, led to an internal central courtyard (6) that featured a fountain with a spout and a rectangular basin. Surrounding the central courtyard were porticoes with mosaic floors (7). To the left of the vestibule, stairs led to the higher level, the northeastern wing, where the bathing complex (8) was located.

To the south and east of the porticoes, towards the cliff, there was a series of rooms that have suffered partial erosion and are not fully preserved (9). A large rectangular room situated east of the eastern portico likely served as the official dining room (triclinium) (10).
