Resort description
Svoboda Hotel 4* is the central part of the Talaso Strunjan resort area — the only health resort on the Slovenian Adriatic coast. The resort is located in the protected Strunjan Landscape Park, next to active Mediterranean salt pans with a 700-year history.
The uniqueness of Talaso Strunjan lies in the combination of three natural factors: sea water, therapeutic mud (fango) from local pans, and the mineral-rich coastal microclimate. Of particular value is Aqua Madre — a concentrated brine remaining after sea water evaporation. It is used only here and serves as the basis for treatments aimed at treating diseases of the musculoskeletal system and respiratory tract.
Svoboda Hotel 4* is suitable for patients who require correction of metabolic disorders and excess weight, recovery from stress conditions and chronic fatigue, rehabilitation for neurological diseases and stroke consequences, as well as slowing down age-related changes.
