Bizovac Thermal Spa used to be one of the biggest thermal spas in Croatia. Located several kilometres from Osijek, back in the days when it was popular, they served the people of Slavonia who found relaxation and recuperation there often. Then came the war, the decline in the popularity of such destinations, then they got outdated and almost forgotten. That lasted until 2014 when Bluesun Group invested in Bizovac and keeps investing to bring the Bizovac Thermal Spa back to the position it deserves, hrturizam.hr writes.
A big part of the Aquapolis in Bizovac was open on May 1st, and now it has a total of 11 pools (3 massage pools, 2 thermal, recreational, children’s, half-Olympic, for non-swimmers, outside family pool and a wave pool), sauna, restaurants and bars, a court for various games, free parking… And the new investment into a “Slavonian beach” has also been presented. Marcel Medak, the director said that they’ve expanded, added 800 square meters of the sundeck, now there are more than 1600 deck chairs by the wave pool. Now it is the biggest, nicest and the best-equipped beach in Slavonia.
The visitors have recognized that, and their numbers are continually increasing, so the new records are expected to be set this year. Mr Medak says that they expect over 15% of growth in 2019. And after that, the biggest step needed for the complete makeover of the Bizovac Thermal Spa will enter the final stage: the works on the Termia Hotel. They’ve analyzed the situation with the hotel extensively and have decided that the best way forward is to take the old hotel down and build a new one from scratch. The old hotel has not seen any investments in over 30 years, so it didn’t make sense to invest without a complete rehaul. The new hotel will have 160 rooms, four stars, a wellness centre and everything else a modern spa guest needs. 17 million Euro invested in the hotel are a small fraction of the total investment the Bluesun has invested in Bizovac Thermal Spa since 2014.
