After a renovation and expansion, the thermal spa is now opening with a new look after a two-year halt.

The village of Tóalmás is located 55 kilometers from Budapest, in Pest County, on the border with Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok, termalonline.hu reports. In the 1960s, oil was searched for in the village, but thermal water was found instead. The locals were delighted with the success and in 1971 they opened a beach spa. The three-pool spa was operating seasonally until the 2021 season.

The last time the thermal beach in Tóalmás opened was in 2021, after which the expansion of the spa began with a HUF 260 million (EUR 674,933.74) grant. During the renovation, new changing rooms and a modern water block were built, the pools were renovated and a new 20-square-meter plunge pool was constructed. A small spa treatment area has also been created, where physiotherapy, physiotherapy gymnastics and therapeutic massage will be available.

From its reopening at the beginning of June, the St. Andrew’s Spa Beach in Tóalmás is expected to await visitors all year round. During the season it will be open from 10 AM to 7 PM. During the off-season, from October to the end of April, the spa will be open from 10 AM to 6 PM.

The St. Andrew’s Spa Beach has also been awarded a prestigious title, as it offers soft thermal water with a medium mineral content, sodium bicarbonate, which is highly recommended for knee and hip problems.
