Sometimes the best part of a holiday is doing absolutely nothing – preferably while wrapped in a soft robe, surrounded by Mediterranean scents and deciding whether your next stop should be the sauna, the pool or a massage table.
Across Croatia, Valamar’s wellness hotels combine beautiful Adriatic settings with thermal experiences, signature treatments and tranquil spaces designed for slowing down. From Dubrovnik and Rabac to Poreč, these are some of the best places to make relaxation the main item on your holiday itinerary.
ESPA at Pical – A New Level of Wellness in Poreč
If you are looking for the ultimate wellness experience, start at ESPA at Pical Wellness & Spa at Pical Resort 5*, Valamar Collection in Poreč.
The only ESPA spa in Croatia brings the internationally renowned holistic wellness brand to Istria, combining ESPA expertise with local Mediterranean traditions and inspiration from the historic Parenzana trail. The result is a deeply personalised experience centred on nature, balance and renewal.
The thermal journey includes eight saunas and steam rooms inspired by Istria’s landscapes, along with four themed relaxation zones. These range from an Aqua Sensory Room with floating waterbeds to a fragrant Herbal Lounge and quiet spaces inspired by Istrian caves, forests and vineyards. Daily Aufguss ceremonies add another layer to the experience.
For even more privacy, the Private Spa Suite offers its own sauna, Rasul, whirlpool and lounge, with personalised wellness journeys designed for couples, families or small groups of friends.
Then there is the Garden Spa, an outdoor wellness retreat near the Beach Club where treatments are shaped by sunshine, sea air and Mediterranean botanicals. Signature experiences range from intuitive massages and personalised facials to an advanced Head Spa inspired by Japanese scalp-care rituals.
The ESPA experience continues at the Alchemy Bar, where guests can explore local Istrian ingredients and create personalised skincare blends. This is not simply somewhere to book a massage between beach days. It is a destination for wellness in its own right.
