Description:

UNIQUE THERMAL WATER RICH IN PARAFFIN

THE LENDAVA HEALTH SPA is located at the foot of the Lendava wine-growing hills, at a point where the borders of Hungary, Croatia and Slovenia meet and where three different nationalities live together in harmony. The picturesque Lendava wine-growing hills with more than 4000 vineyards are a tourist attraction, so near to the Lendava Health Spa that we could almost think they are a part of it.

The beginnings of the Lendava health spa are slightly unusual, as is our unique and special fossil hyperthermal mineral water with healing effects. The water was discovered by chance in 1965 during oil drilling operations in the village of Petišovci. It was big disappointment. Instead of finding the longed-for oil, it was the hot water that came to the surface. In time the local residents discovered that bathing in this water soothes their pains, brought about by their age. The results of the physical and chemical analysis of the water showed that it is fossil water, namely sodium hydrogen carbonate hyperthermal water with 62°C.

The healing water of the Lendava Health Spa, rich in paraffin, is the basis for medical treatment, prevention, rehabilitation, recreation and relaxation. Besides balneotherapy, there are also other forms of modern physical and rehabilitation medicine, carried out by an experienced medical team lead by a specialist doctor – physiatrist.

The guests do not come to the Lendava Health Spa for their medical treatment only but also to get some rest and recharge their batteries. There are 1849 m2 of water surface at their disposal (a winter/summer pool, indoor pool, the »grozd« thermal pool, Olympic pool with slides and a children's pool). New indoor pools were built at the end of 2004. They comprise a recreational pool with various water effects, fast river, massage nozzles, a geyser, a waterfall and a children's pool. A variety of sports activities are offered to our active guests – tennis, beach volleyball, organized cycling trips with the possibility of bicycle rental. Our hotel guests can also work out in the hotel fitness studio or enjoy themselves in our sauna centre with four different saunas. They can take part in the organized physical exercises as well.

The Lendava Health Spa's recent acquisition is by all means its renovated Lipa*** hotel, which offers many different things under one roof – a modern thermal baths, restaurants with select culinary offer, 120 modern hotel rooms (single, double, suites) with a shower, WC, balcony, satellite TV, radio, telephone, air conditioning and a hairdryer. An air-conditioned restaurant and conservatory, a pleasant tavern and neat terraces enable our guests and travellers to enjoy the diverse offer of traditional cuisine and drinks. Moreover, the guests can also stay in the Lipov gaj*** apartment village, where there are apartments of various sizes but all fitted with a kitchen niche, living room and a bedroom.

All those who prefer the luxury of deluxe hotels are invited to stay in the Elizabeta Hotel in the centre of Lendava. It is a modern, four-star hotel with 23 air-conditioned rooms, intended for business guests and those who wish to explore the surrounding villages by bicycle or car. The hotel guests can use the baths services in the Lipa hotel for free.

In the vicinity of the Lipa Hotel and the swimming pools, there is also the Lipa*** campsite, open throughout the year.

The town of Lendava is an excellent starting point for sightseeing trips and walks. Te town itself is a tourist attraction worth seeing. It attracts its guests with its castle from the 12th century, St. Catherine's church, the Jewish synagogue, a castle wine cellar from 1717, the picturesque Lendava wine road with many wine cellars and other sights. You will also be invited to visit the surrounding villages with their beautiful churches, craftsmen at their work, wine roads, cycling routes, the world along the Mura river and much more. Should you wish to visit our neighbouring countries, we can arrange (besides the trips in the Pomurje region) trips to Hungary, Croatia or wherever you might like to go.

When considering the unique thermo mineral water, rich in paraffin, the beautiful surroundings, superb holiday programmes and accommodation, when considering the entire offer in one place, excellent cuisine and kind people, the answer to the question – where to go on holidays – is very simple – THE LENDAVA HEALTH SPA.
