Caldea
Building Thermal spa complex with panoramic mountain pools
A multi‑level thermal spa in Escaldes‑Engordany, Caldea offers hot‑water pools, saunas, and spa treatments in a distinctive glass‑and‑steel complex at the edge of Andorra la Vella.
Caldea is a large thermal spa complex in Escaldes-Engordany, Andorra, built around natural hot springs and offering a range of thermal pools, jacuzzis and spa treatments in a multi-storey glass and steel building.
Facilities include mixed and segregated bathing areas, relaxation spaces and treatment rooms designed for both short visits and extended wellness programmes. The architecture and large glazed atrium make the building a distinctive feature in the town centre.
The spa capitalises on the local thermal springs that have been used for bathing locally; it operates as a modern leisure and wellness centre with day visits and treatment packages available.
Caldea sits in the parish of Escaldes-Engordany, immediately adjacent to Andorra la Vella, within the valley floor of the principality and close to main roads and pedestrian routes of the central shopping and hotel area.
- Thermal waters and circuits: The complex uses natural thermal spring water that reaches the surface in Escaldes-Engordany and offers multi-level pools and spa circuits for different experience types.

- Skip the busiest central whirlpools if looking for quiet: head to the 18th-floor spa-level terraces.
