Héviz is a very small town in Hungary, mostly noted for the spa, which is on Lake Héviz, the largest thermal lake in Europe. Serviced apartments in Héviz give you unrivalled opportunities to swim in the lake, which never drops below 28°C. The lake is very deep right from the edge and the currents are strong – experts believe that the water is changed completely once a day. Even if you are a strong swimmer it is recommended that you use some kind of flotation aid as the temperature of the water is so relaxing you could quite literally drop off to sleep.

Staying in a Héviz holiday rental just for the spa is quite understandable, but there is plenty to see in the town. If you are a widely travelled person, you might think that the streets which surround your Héviz self-catered apartment or serviced flat look more like something from Bavaria than Hungary, as there is a bit of the fairytale about them. The streets are very wide and are perfect for a stroll at dusk after you have finished your spa treatment. The town has been host to visitors since the mid eighteenth century when the thermal waters first became popular so you will have absolutely no problem in finding some delicious food when you are staying in a Héviz aparthotel.

When you first visit the thermal lake, you will definitely notice the smell of bad eggs which comes off the water. This is because of the salts in the water and it is these that give the lake its properties, so the smell is inevitable and can’t be removed. You will soon stop noticing it though and won’t take it back with you to your Héviz apartment rental! As soon as you dry off the smell will go.

The thermal waters of the lake are not suitable for children, but you will find that a holiday let in Héviz is still suitable for families, because the lake which Lake Héviz feeds from, Lake Balaton, is not warm or anything like as deep, so it is fine for the children. There are various children’s playgrounds around the lake shore as well, because unless the day is warm Lake Balaton might be a bit cold. It is nice to know that if one member of the party renting a Héviz short stay apartment needs spa treatment there is plenty for others to do.
