She was pictured unwinding and enjoying some me time poolside in the sunshine.
The five-star hotel, which costs more than £2,000-a-night, boasts incredible views of the picturesque lake and surrounding hills.
Stacey recently opened up about her struggles with body image on holiday.
She wrote on Instagram: “I haven’t committed to the gym this year the way I was able to last year. I don’t know why but for some reason I was conscious about it before coming away. I Worried people would notice (so silly I know as I usually don’t even think about those things, but I felt a weird pressure).
“However looking back on pics from the beach yesterday I can see I’m still so beautiful. I look a little different from my last holiday but just as beautiful.”
The 43-year-old former EastEnders star said they always have a crafts box to keep their young children entertained, and flotation devices to keep them safe in the water.
Joe said: “Stacey likes to travel with a craft box so the kids can stick out things together and do a bit of drawing.
“But we also like to do things with the younger ones, Belle and Rose.
Rex not so much now as he’s a bit older and he can swim really well, but we make sure we get the armbands for swimming properly.
“You can go on holiday and then it’s a nightmare if you can’t get the right ones.
“We always want to make sure they have the right swimming equipment so they’re safe before we go, so we know that box is ticked.”
Joe revealed the family are weighing up where to go – but that decision is out of his hands and will be down to the kids.
Joe said: “We do like to go away with a lot of family as well so I’m sure there’s going to be more than just us lot.
“We like to go to Turkey as that’s where the kids love. We’re not 100 per cent sure where it’ll be, but there’s going to be a lot of us.
“We are driven by what the kids love – wherever they want to go, we do.”
He added: “Our kids have never loved kids club, but they love water parks, swimming, playing sports, football and tennis.
“They’ve got huge amounts of energy to burn off and because we’ve got so many of them, there’s never a dull moment.
“I always say to Stacey that we need a holiday after the holiday.”
