👌 Spas and Wellness Centers of the Netherlands that we enjoy the most

Thermen Bussloo - Lotus flower

Spas in the Netherlands are luxurious, well-organized wellness resorts, and most of them offer hotel services. You might find them a bit expensive for the full-day access, but it is worth it. After a day in a spa, we always feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Besides, we often use just the evening arrangement, which is cheaper and less busy. One fact: you have to be naked in a Dutch spa, although several spas offer swimming suit day, the so-called ‘badkledingdag’ which you can find on their websites. Enjoy!
