At the beginning of the 19th century, bathing in the sea as a health remedy started to be practiced, later, curative sea and bog mud was discovered in the vicinity. After the Republic of Estonia was founded, the resort was developed intensively and several boarding houses and villas were built for summer visitors. So, Villa Vasa, which is part of the Wasa Hotel today,\u00a0 was built for Swedes arriving by boat.
