Portorož, also known as Portorose, is a famous resort town on Slovenia's Adriatic coast. Its spa tradition dates back to the 13th century when Benedictine monks used sea salt and mud therapies to treat their patients. Portorož officially became a resort town in 1885 after the opening of the first hospital, and in 1910, the first large hotel, "Palace," was opened. Today, Portorož is renowned for its rich spa culture, mild Mediterranean climate, beautiful surrounding hills, and shallow warm sea. Portoroz is a lively destination, especially during the warmer months. Its main promenade is filled with hotels, casinos, and restaurants, catering to all budgets. Despite being accessible to everyone, the town has an air of exclusivity that attracts affluent holidaymakers from across Europe. Alongside its thermal complexes, the resort is famous for its cultural offerings and various exciting sites, including the iconic Hotel Kempinski Palace Portoroz. Previously, only the wealthiest guests could stay at this fashionable hotel. Portorož is also home to first-class casinos, many of which have been designated historical sites.
The waterfront houses some of the most popular casinos and entertainment facilities. The Church of St. Bernardin is also located on a hilltop, a former monastery dating back to the 15th century. To the south, visitors can find Forma Viva, an area with unique stone sculptures. Portorož is perfect for those looking for an active holiday, with plenty of water sports, cycling, and horse riding opportunities. It is also an excellent starting point for daily tours and excursions. Additionally, it's located very close to Piran, a medieval pearl, and the Lipica Stud Farm, a beautiful cultural and historical monument. Galleries, numerous cultural and entertainment events, specialities of Istrian cuisine, superb wellness services and facilities – guests can enjoy all these during their stay in the popular holiday resort of Portorož.
