About Portorož
Portorož is Slovenia's only true seaside spa resort, combining a long sandy beach with top-notch thermal and wellness offerings. The name means 'Harbor of Roses,' and indeed the place exudes a touch of sophisticated bathing culture with its Belle Époque hotels, elegant beach promenade, and Mediterranean gardens. The spas utilize mineral-rich water and salt mud from the nearby Sečovlje salt pans for healing treatments, known since the 13th century. Together with the neighboring Piran, Portorož offers the perfect mix of relaxation, culture, and Mediterranean enjoyment on the Slovenian Adriatic coast.
