Lucky Bansko Aparthotel SPA & Relax received two awards for 2026 in the category of retreat tourism, the resort told BTA. The awards from the Spring Travel Soare forum, organized by Travel & LifeStyle Magazine with the support of the Tourism Ministry, include a spot in the top 50 best retreat destinations and first place for the best retreat destination in Bulgaria for 2026.
The spa centre at Lucky Bansko Aparthotel SPA & Relax is designed as a next-generation space where services are focused on holistic recovery and a personalized approach to guests, the complex’s executive director, Assoc. Prof. Asya Pandzherova, told BTA.
According to her, the detox programmes include treatments such as hydro-massage baths with therapeutic extracts, hammam rituals, Rasul therapies with mineral mud and clay, as well as applications on a water bed with healing ingredients.
The water zone features bio-pools with underwater music, a pool with Dead Sea salts, a jacuzzi, and hydro-massage facilities. During the summer season, two outdoor pools for children and adults are also available.
The thermal zone includes a Finnish and infrared sauna, a steam bath, and a salt room for halotherapy.
Among the innovative services is the cryosauna, in which the body is exposed to temperatures as low as minus 160C. The procedure aims to stimulate recovery processes and boost the body’s overall vitality, Pandzherova noted.
The detox programmes also include hydrocolon therapy, performed by medical specialists.
The spa centre offers a variety of facial and body treatments - from massages and aromatherapy to anti-aging and rejuvenating programmes developed by the resort’s team.
For our youngest guests, we provide specially adapted treatments and facilities, including a heated pool with water purified through ultrasound and electrolysis.
Among the hotel’s key offerings is the Lucky Bansko Aparthotel SPA & Relax weight loss, detox, and anti-stress programme.
According to Pandzherova, the spa centre is a key competitive advantage of the resort and is designed to provide a comprehensive experience for guests.
