History

The health resort was founded on the grounds of several nationalized private summer houses.

On July 15, 1922 the Sochi city resort administration started the health resort and named it after M. V. Frunze in the territory of those summer houses. It welcomed for holidays and treatment the first seventy holiday makers. The first guests were Communist party leaders and former hard labor convicts. The health  resort belonged to the trust "Sochi-Matsesta resort".

In times of the Second World War there were based the hospital # 2117 (August 1941-August 1942) and hospital #3213 (June 1943 - June 1945) in the health resort territory. It was turned back into the health resort in June 1945.

The further on reorganizing and replacements under the command were carried out within Sochi health resort and recreation centers group, the Central Committee of the Communist party Administration. In December 1972 the health resort body was awarded for reaching the highest results in all the Soviet Union competition and in the commemoration of the 50 years anniversary of forming the USSR the health resort body was granted the jubilee honor award. By the Order of the USSR Supreme Soviet dated June 15 1982 the M. V. Frunze health resort was awarded with the Friendship of Nations Order for the successful holidays and treatment arrangements on the day of its 60 years old establishment.
