6 July 2019 – The popular Terme Tuhelj thermal pools in the picturesque region of Hrvatsko Zagorje will open what will be the first luxury 5-star camp in continental Croatia later this month. 

The 20,000 square metre site will feature a total of 56 camping sites located in two zones. There will be a restaurant and a bar for true hedonists, camping service, a space to wash pets, sanitary facilities adapted for disabled people, family bathrooms, a dressing room, a children’s playground, a golf course and a tennis court.

A total of 20 lots will be open throughout the year, whilst the remaining lots will be available for guests during the warmer months. All campsite guests will have unlimited swimming at Tuhelj’s Water Planet, so families with children will be able to enjoy swimming in the outdoor and indoor swimming pools as well as numerous water attractions. 

“Tourism trends show that this type of camping is particularly attractive to the millennials, who are today the world’s most numerous travellers. 53 percent of them state camping as the first choice for their trips. We are not just adapting to the trends and the wishes of guests, but we are expanding our offer with new products and raising the quality of camping in the world,” says Vasja Čretnik, Director of Terme Tuhelj.

Investment 2019/2020

This is the first phase of refurbishment of the camp in Terme Tuhelj, which will continue in 2020. The second phase will include the construction of a luxury resort with 30 luxury homes for families and couples as well as additional facilities that will give families a real family experience and let them enjoy wellness activities in nature. That part of the camp will work throughout the year as well as 20 campsites that will be open in the first phase.

The total value of the investment is between 2.5 and 3 million euros,  depending on the amount of investment of the strategic partner with which Terme Tuhelj is in current negotiations.

The new 5-star camp at Terme Tuhelj will offer a complete experience for all types of travellers, from those seeking a relaxing atmosphere, harmony and connectivity with nature, to active holiday lovers who want to be on the go, to guests in search of luxury amenities and contemporary trends which have so far mainly been associated with hotel accommodation.

The advantage of the newly refurbished Terme Tuhelj Camp is that it is close to other facilities available to guests such as the indoor and outdoor pools, wellness facilities within the hotel and gastronomic experiences of numerous restaurants. The proximity of the highway is certainly a great plus, which will enable a great number of foreign tourists to relinquish their journey and adventure full of experiences in a modern 5-star camp.
