Last minute winter holidays are often associated with escaping to warm countries, but let's face it: it can be really warm in Poland too. Especially when you choose a spa hotel with a pool and jacuzzi.
Last minute winter holidays have another advantage: instead of planning for a long time, you just pack up and go. The only question is: where to?
Last minute in Poland? It's no longer a compromise
Polish hotels have significantly raised their standards in recent years, which is why last minute in Poland increasingly wins over abroad. The market is growing particularly in the segment of higher standard facilities, as directly highlighted by industry analyses.
There is also a second trend: Poland is increasingly appearing on the list of destinations chosen by guests from the West, who praise the quality of services in relation to the price. In GUS data, it is also visible that among overnight stays granted to foreign tourists, guests from Germany have a strong share.
Winter holidays in Ciechocinek
In winter, Ciechocinek has the advantage that you don’t have to fight for space. The Spa Park is perfect for walks, and the rhythm of the town naturally slows down. And it is then that you appreciate such details as a dry sauna with a view of the Spa Park.
Practically, it looks simple: you go out for a short walk, come back for something warm, and jump into the wellness zone with the pool. Without the pressure of ticking off attractions from the list. If you choose holidays with children – they have planned time with an animator during play and creative workshops.
Villa Park MED & SPA: warmth in practice

The Saltaris SPA zone is one of the strong points of the facility and importantly, it is included in the stay price. What does this mean in practice?

If you like to complete your relaxation with a contrast, you can also use the ice bowl and sensation shower. And if you feel like a bit of exercise even during the holidays, there is also a cardio studio and fitness classes.
If besides relaxation you want to take better care of your body, the Structural Rehabilitation Clinic operates on site. It is a good solution when your spine aches, old strains come back, or you simply feel that working on tensions would be beneficial. The team of physiotherapists bases therapy on whole-body analysis and selects an individual plan, and ready-made programs, including an orthopedic one, "Healthy Spine" and sports rehabilitation are available. You can also consult a diet at the clinic.
