Balneario de Leana
Balneario de Leana is a resort hotel in Fortuna, Spain, built directly over natural thermal springs and offering guests access to warm mineral-water pools. The property includes outdoor pools, a garden area, and simply furnished rooms, some of which face the water.
Fortuna has been known for its thermal springs since Roman times, when the waters were already used for bathing and recovery. The resort at Leana developed over the following centuries on the same site, continuing a use that has never really stopped.
The warm springs of Fortuna have drawn people from the surrounding region for generations, and the resort sits at the center of this local habit. Many visitors today come not for the hotel itself but simply to spend time in the water, as people here have always done.
The resort is well signposted from the main roads around Fortuna and has parking directly on the property. Arriving in the morning gives you more space around the pools, which tend to fill up later in the day.
The springs at Leana are among the hottest natural thermal springs in Spain, with water that comes out of the ground warm enough that some pools need to be cooled before use. First-time visitors are often caught off guard by just how hot the water feels compared to a typical pool or spa.
