According to tradition, Cambo-les-Bains already enjoyed an excellent reputation in Roman times . The station experienced a revival of activity under Napoleon III but it was not really until the beginning of the last century that a great Brazilian fortune modernized the Baths. However, it is to Adrien Barthélemy , the founder of the Chaîne Thermale du Soleil, that we owe the rediscovery of hydrotherapy in France and the development of the exceptional thermal domain of Cambo-les-Bains , established in the heart of a 12 hectare wooded park.

Nestled in the heart of a valley on the banks of the Nive , the Cambo thermal establishment enjoys a privileged location set back from the city. The main building was built in 1926 in a neoclassical and Art Deco style by the architects Émile Molinié, Charles Nicod and Henri Sajous. The road that leads there sets the scene and the relaxing setting: a lush exotic park of twelve hectares with a hundred majestic palm trees . Cambo exudes calm, tranquility and voluptuousness.

Good to know :

A thermal cure at the thermal baths of Cambo-les-Bains can profit from a assumption of responsibility by the Health Insurance, if it is prescribed by your attending physician, and that it is spread out over a period of 18 days. Other, shorter spa treatment formats are also available - from a simple weekend to a stay of one or two weeks - but they are not supported.
