Pirts “Rozēni”

A manor spa on the Vidzeme coast where treatments use organic Latvian countryside produce prepared for each guest. Aromatic steam baths and tubs, couples’ rituals, massages and masks, with herbal teas and healthy snacks in the lounge.

A private open-air museum founded in 2008, about 45 minutes’ drive from Riga. Seven bathhouses — six relocated historic ones and one newly built — including black (smoke) and white saunas, with a guided story and sauna sessions led by a pirtnieks, plus workshops and activities for children. Admission €2; visits may be limited in hard frost or deep snow.

A nature spa in a forest corner near Sigulda with three bathhouses: a Glass pirts by a pond with a jetty, a Smoke pirts under an old spruce by a spring, and a spiral-shaped Wool pirts with an outdoor tub. Rituals led by a sauna master last around four to five hours, with herbal compresses, a scrub, whisking, pond dips, an oil-and-honey massage, tea and home-baked bread. The architecture has been featured by international design media; book in advance.
