The charming thermal beach has been operating since 1971. It is located just 55 kilometres east of Budapest. The spa was last open in the summer of 2021. Last year, the facility was renovated and expanded, with modern bathrooms and new changing rooms, Travelo reports. They are also aiming to obtain medical spa certification, so medical treatments will soon be available.

The renovated spa is now planned to be open all year round, not just during the summer beach season. What’s more, it will be free on the opening day on 10 June. After that, tickets will still be available at reasonable prices: HUF 2,000 (EUR 5.42) for adults, HUF 1,000 (EUR 2.71) for pensioners and under-14s, and discounted tickets will be available from 4 PM. The spa accommodation is expected to open in August, but the campsite will be closed this year.

The water of the Szent András Thermal Bath in Tóalmás was certified as a medicinal water in 2004. The soft thermal water with a medium mineral content, sodium hydrogen carbonate, is effective in the treatment of knee and hip joint problems, Travelo explains.
