About the Hotel
Falkensteiner Hotel & Spa Iadera holds a generous Adriatic sauna circuit on a small peninsula at Petrčane, just north of Zadar in Croatia. The hotel's spa wing combines the sauna with a Turkish Hamam, cold-plunge area and quiet sea-facing relaxation lounges — a layered sauna landscape shaped to follow time on the beach or in the surrounding pine forest. Sauna access is part of the in-house guest spa offer.
Beyond the sauna, the hotel's setting puts heated indoor and outdoor pools, a private beach cove and full Acquapura spa programming within a short walk of the room. Guests are encouraged to follow the classic ritual — warm round in the sauna, cooling shower or sea-air pause and quiet rest in a sea-facing lounge before another session. Treatment rooms and a fitness suite sit nearby, which makes a long, layered wellness afternoon easy to put together.
Falkensteiner Hotel & Spa Iadera suits travellers who want a real Adriatic spa stay with a sauna routine treated as a core part of the day. The hotel makes Petrčane feel like a steady, well-anchored Croatian wellness retreat.
