Splash and Spa Tamaro (Ticino, CH)

The salvation for a rainy day on Lake Maggiore: water slides, wave pool, large playground for smaller children, thermal pool with massage jets – and lots of wellness. At the foot of Monte Tamaro is the still very new swimming pool Splash & Spa Tamaro and is absolutely suitable  to spend a whole day in it. Modern and cool are the water slides, for example small half pipes or upside down on a “slide carpet”.

The warm outdoor pool is for those who enjoy the beautiful view: on summer days you can see the splendor of Monte Tamaro, on winter days sometimes snowy landscapes. Always accompanied by the pleasant bubbling of the warm massage jets.

The wave pool of Splash Spa Tamaro brings fun for young and old, right next to it is the very nice children’s play area with water cannons, small slides and fountains, and comfortable lounging cushions for parents. The culinary offer is typical for swimming pools – sausage, fries, nuggets, pizza, pasta, but everything in good quality. The bar in the warm wellness pool of the Splash & Spa is a highlight: you don’t have to leave the pool for a drink, you can sit in the warm pool and enjoy a cold drink, cocktail or a coffee. You always have the children well in view, because the bath is well laid out by the round structure to keep a good overview despite the size. Prices are typically expensive in Switzerland, both for bath and for food & drink. However, the Splash e Spa swimming pool is definitely worth the money and a visit is recommended.

Those who are looking for other activities afterwards: The valley station of the Monte Tamaro cable car is located next to the Splash & Spa, combined tickets for swimming pool and Monte Tamaro are offered at discounted prices. About 20 minutes further you will find the Factory outlet Foxtown, a huge outlet center in Mendrisio.
