The Ismena SPA Complex features new outdoor thermal soaking pools filled with hot mineral water, marking the first open-air mineral soaking pools in Devin that operate year-round. The facility functions as a four-season destination, blending modern architecture with traditional Rhodope Revival styles. The entire complex utilizes healing mineral water sourced from the Bedenski spring for various restorative treatments.
The center draws visitors, primarily Bulgarian tourists seeking the tranquility of the Rhodope Mountains, alongside international guests from Germany, Israel, Russia, and the United Kingdom. A key attraction remains the water-based therapies, as the mineral water’s alkaline properties are noted for cleansing the skin, stimulating regeneration, and supporting detoxification. Treatments involving the mineral water are particularly recommended for individuals with sedentary jobs or previous injuries, as the heat and mineral composition help relax muscles and improve mobility without straining the heart.
Spanning 17 decares, the overall complex includes hotel accommodations, guesthouses, and landscaped park areas. The associated spa center offers extensive amenities, including indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, steam baths, jacuzzis, and aromatic baths. Guests can also experience contrast therapy in a 5°C shock pool, which is utilized after saunas to refresh and improve circulation.
The spa menu further provides options such as volcanic stone massage and restorative magnesium treatments. Beyond its amenities, the Ismena spa complex contributes to a broader wellness initiative. BTA features news from certified SPA, wellness, and medical SPA centers across Bulgaria in its “BG SPA: Salus per aquam” feature, which currently exceeds 200 locations.
