The Ismena SPA Complex has recently introduced outdoor thermal soaking pools filled with hot mineral water, marking the first and only open-air mineral soaking experience in Devin that operates year-round. The facility is designed as a four-season destination, merging modern architectural design with the aesthetic of traditional Rhodope Revival houses. The complex draws visitors seeking relaxation and recovery through water-based therapies utilizing healing mineral water sourced from the Bedenski spring.
According to the management, the mineral water’s alkaline properties are beneficial for cleansing the skin, stimulating regeneration, and supporting detoxification. Treatments involving immersion in this mineral water are particularly recommended for individuals with sedentary professions or past injuries, as the heat and mineral composition help relax muscles and improve mobility without straining the heart. The 17-decare spa center offers extensive amenities, including both indoor and outdoor pools, alongside saunas, steam baths, Finnish saunas, jacuzzis, and aromatic baths.
Beyond the hot soaking pools, guests can experience contrast therapy in a 5°C shock pool, a practice noted for its refreshing effect on circulation following heat exposure. The menu also includes specialized treatments such as volcanic stone massage and restorative magnesium massage, providing comprehensive rejuvenation options. The facility caters to a diverse clientele, with Bulgarian tourists often drawn by the tranquility of the Rhodope Mountains, while international visitors originate mainly from Germany, Israel, Russia, and the United Kingdom
