While you are relaxing or enjoying a beauty treatment, you will never be far from the stories of Istria and enchanting views of the endless blue sea.

Discover our world of saunas and get warm in a herbal, infrared, or Finnish sauna, or in a steam bath, then cool off in the pleasant cold pool and enjoy all the advantages of a Kneipp treatment. You can also visit our salt room and take advantage of the beneficial effects of salt, or relax in the only hammam in the Slovenian Istria.

The traditional Finnish sauna is the most common, and one of the first types of sauna to be developed over a thousand years ago. Finnish saunas work by heating the air in an enclosed insulated space, which is usually made of wood. Because the climate is dry, sweating heavily in the sauna does not lead to physical problems, but it can cause you to lose fluids and minerals. To replace them, it is recommended to drink water, tea, or other refreshing beverages after leaving the sauna. During your sauna session, you can take a 15 minute break to admire the unparalleled views of the Slovenian sea.

The world of saunas in the Wellness Benedicta boasts the only hammam on the Slovenian coast. Visit our Istrian hammam and enjoy this popular body cleansing ritual with an Istrian twist. After applying a salt scrub and natural soap with lavender and rosemary essential oils, your body is rinsed with hot and cold water, followed by a natural wrap that suits the particular needs of your skin.

The Wellness Benedicta in the Hotel Histrion is situated near the salt pans and surrounded by sea, so it would be a shame not to experience the beneficial effects of salt in our salt room during your stay. The salt treatment has a positive effect on the respiratory system and prevents respiratory diseases. The room is furnished with comfortable wooden recliners, while the floor and walls are covered in salt from the Slovenian coast. For adult users, it is recommended to spend at least one hour breathing in the aerosols emitted from the salt to make the most of their healing effects.

For massage enthusiasts, we offer 6 massage rooms. The rooms are round, resonating with the infinite universe and life force, and creating an intimate atmosphere where our massage experts provide therapeutic relaxation and energy massages.
