The Kvarner Gulf has been one of Croatia’s most important regions for health and wellness holidays since the 19th century. Crikvenica was officially designated a “health resort” in 1901 – thanks to its distinctive maritime healing climate, made up of sea air, mountain breezes and Mediterranean nature. The four-star Kvarner Palace stood for relaxation and regeneration by the sea since the Belle Époque.
What was once known as a classic spa stay is today experienced as modern wellness and holistic wellbeing. The salt-rich air, with its high levels of iodine, magnesium and minerals, combined with over 2,500 hours of sunshine per year and natural aerosols from more than 200 medicinal plants, has been shown to have a demonstrably positive effect on the respiratory system, the skin and general wellbeing.
At Kvarner Palace, we combine this historical health expertise with contemporary concepts of wellness, exercise and longevity. The aim is to enhance quality of life in a lasting way – through conscious regeneration, activities in nature and the power of the sea. In this way, the tradition of the spa cure becomes a modern wellness and health hotel approach for a long, vital life.
