The Feuerstein is a veritable land of milk and honey for children and an ideal place for parents to relax and recharge their batteries. A unique offer based on the philosophy of Maria Montessori awaits our little guests as part of our nature-based childcare: Crafts and handicrafts in the wood workshop, playing, climbing and jumping in the play barn, painting in the studio, building sandcastles in the mud room, going on a treasure hunt, baking bread on a stick over an open fire and much more.

While the little ones are well looked after, parents can sit back, relax and enjoy time together. The surrounding mountains beckon you outdoors, the separate adults-only spa area is the perfect place to relax, yoga and meditation sessions ensure pure relaxation and the well-equipped fitness room invites you to work out.

Wellness enjoyment for the whole family awaits in the 3,000 m² Mountain Spa with infinity outdoor pool, three indoor pools, an over 100 m long water slide with timer, various saunas and cozy corners for moments of relaxation together.

Horse lovers will also get their money's worth at the Feuerstein - in the new riding stables with petting zoo. Pony rides, taster lessons for beginners, exciting riding lessons for advanced riders, vaulting and cavaletti lessons and rides through the impressive mountain scenery are all on the program.

Culinary delights ranging from Mediterranean to Alpine cuisine with ingredients from the region are served in the restaurant, which consists of eight dining rooms, and those who want to treat themselves to a very special evening can visit the hotel's own gourmet restaurant, Artifex.

The spacious rooms, suites and chalets, furnished with high-quality natural materials, offer a first-class living atmosphere, with something to suit every family constellation.

Let yourself be enchanted by this magical place.

In the morning the sun rises over the peaks, in the evening the lights sparkle in the valley. In this absolute top location on a sun-drenched south-facing slope above Burgeis, every corner of DAS GERSTL Alpine Retreat opens up views that you will never forget, just like the warm, down-to-earth hospitality of the owner family Gerstl.

At 1,500 meters above sea level, guests can enjoy pleasant temperatures even in the warmer months, while relaxing in the open air on box seats by the 18-meter-long, year-round heated infinity pool, on cosy day beds or in the outdoor whirlpool in the sauna garden. Relax, read a good book, take a dip in one of the pools, let your gaze and thoughts wander - all of this is possible at Hotel Gerstl.

The exclusive suites also invite you to do nothing. The new 60 square meter pool suite with a private infinity pool and whirlpool, a large veranda and its own garden for undisturbed togetherness is certainly a special experience. The pleasant vacation feeling of lightness and light-heartedness spreads at the latest during a floating aperitif in the cool water.

If you do want to leave the retreat, there are hikes to nearby Switzerland, mountain bike trails, irrigation canals along historic irrigation channels or a visit to the smallest town in the Southern Alps: the medieval town of Glurns. The Gerstl team also offers daily guided excursions, from guided e-bike tours to joint forest bathing.

After a day full of activities and fresh mountain air, the evening ends with a delicious, multi-course meal. For all their innovative spirit, the Gerstl family relies on tried and tested dishes: the hotel's regionally oriented cuisine, which sources its products from the surrounding area to support the farmers in the valley and protect the environment with short transportation routes, is already a tradition. Once a week on r30 Day, all ingredients even come from within a radius of no more than thirty kilometers - this is when the creativity of head chef Michael Ziernheld and his team is particularly in demand. It is clear how much everyone is behind this concept. When the first elderflowers can be harvested in early summer, for example, fresh blossoms from many of the employees' gardens are brought to the hotel for processing. Fruit, herbs and berries are also grown locally by the GERSTL Unique team. If you would like to take a look behind the scenes of the Gerstl's gourmet workshop, you can do so at the weekly kitchen party. Here, culinary delights are celebrated in a special way and guests are invited to watch the chefs prepare dinner and collect the delicacies from the kitchen in person. If that's not enough, book an exclusive evening at Gerstl's Chef's Table in the middle of the action in the hotel kitchen.

The extent to which the family is rooted in the region is illustrated not only by the r30 philosophy in the food, but also by its continuation in other areas: Building materials are sourced locally wherever possible and are processed by local craftspeople, the cosmetic products are made from regional ingredients and even the staff almost all come from within a radius of just 30 kilometers.

At the Posthotel Achenkirch, adults will find a very special vacation paradise in the middle of the Tyrolean mountains: the Karwendel mountains and the idyllic Lake Achensee offer a breathtaking atmosphere for a special break! Whether in the dreamlike nature all around, the spacious sauna area, the water worlds and luxurious spas, here we pamper your senses in the most indulgent way. Discover space for the self in the exclusive adults-only resort: feel the happiness of the earth on the backs of noble Lipizzaner horses, relax with yoga in the great outdoors or with healing pleasures in the new health restaurant, where Far Eastern healing art merges with Alpine cuisine.

To mark 100 years of the Posthotel Achenkirch, the Posthotel Stammhaus opened this year with exclusive SigNature suites, a bathrobe restaurant, hands-on cuisine, creative rooms, relaxation, reading and play rooms as well as an extensive range of indoor and outdoor fitness facilities.

The Brandl family and the ULRICHSHOF team

ULRICHSHOF is quietly located on the edge of the forest on a 64,000 m² hotel area in Zettisch in the nature paradise Bavarian Forest.

Bad Kötzting is 10 km away. The nearest train station is in Furth im Wald, 10 km away.

The Bavarian Forest is known as Europe’s most beautiful low mountain landscape, remarkable natural park in Germany and impressive magic forest in Bavaria. When speaking of the forest itself, it is usually meant the breathtaking cultural landscape in the east of Bavaria on the border to Bohemia. Endless hiking trails in untouched nature and a wide range of leisure and cultural activities in every season have made the Bavarian Forest one of the famous family holiday regions in Germany.

The winter in the Bavarian Forest is like a wonderland of forest and snow. Next to you a snow-covered tree top, above you the bright blue sky and in front of you nothing but limitless snow fun - this is winter holidays in the Bavarian Forest. Whether on the sledge hill behind the Spiel-KISTE or in one of the three nearby ski areas Hohenbogen, Eck-Riedelstein or ArberLand at Großer Arber, fun with the whole family is guaranteed. In the ski areas, perfectly groomed slopes and cosy places to stop await visitors.

Those who want to take it easy can experience pure wellness while strolling through the area. The fresh, clean air and refreshing nature give strength and new vital energy. A wellness or family holiday in the Bavarian Forest is therefore for many an absolute insider tip.

Only 5 minutes by car from the gates of Dinkelsbühl ("Germany's most beautiful old town", according to FOCUS) and 25 minutes from Rothenburg o.d.T.
Hospitality and ingenuity have been part of the philosophy at Meiser for 6 generations since 1880. You can expect a domicile of relaxation and recreation as well as a place of encounter and inspiration. Enjoy a sophisticated ambience and a unique, warm atmosphere to feel good. Look forward to spacious and luxuriously equipped hotel rooms and suites that offer you a cozy and pleasant home on the most beautiful days of the year. The friendly service and kitchen team will spoil you with excellent regional and international specialties. Nature and an intact environment are also very important to the Meiser family - they offer you an almost CO²-neutral heat supply.

Sincerely, the Meiser family & the Meiser Mes pampering team

From June 2023, you can enjoy our four new styles of deluxe suite: each one with a different theme, unique design, whirlpool, and large terrace with sea view. These new suites will join the classical and elegant existing rooms to give you a holiday of pure comfort!

Our private beach is located directly in front of our hotel, where relaxation, music, and entertainment await. At the service area on the beach, you’ll find sun umbrellas, loungers, newspapers, beach towels, and everything you need to chill by the sea. A food & beverage service is also available so that you can enjoy snacks and drinks on your loungers.

Besides its location right by the sea, our hotel has a large outdoor area with whirlpool, children’s pool, terrace with loungers, and refreshment area. Our hotel features a modern fitness room with cardio equipment and space for calisthenics, new from 2023.

If you want even more, you can reach the renowned Bibione Thermae wellness centre through the comfortable, heated underground tunnel. Here, deluxe wellness moments await you in the SPA Beauty Farm, in the garden, and in the solarium. Thermal baths, whirlpools, saunas, steam baths … Everything you need to enjoy moments of pure relaxation! And the sea view is included!

Your days at Savoy Hotel Beach start with a rich breakfast with sea view and continue with varied delicacies, each accompanied by the perfect wine. It goes without saying that freshly caught fish and genuine Italian pasta are part of the menu, along with fruit and vegetables from our own garden. Our kitchen team prepares every dish with passion. For gourmands, there are also homemade desserts from our own pastry chef.

If you can’t get enough of culinary delights, look forward to a special highlight: an à-la-carte dinner at Duca d’Aosta gourmet restaurant.

It is a place of tranquillity for a time-out without haste. A hideaway. Simply switch off, let the hustle and bustle of the world pass you by and listen to the whispering of the trees - nowhere does this better than here. You can choose between the historic villa and coach house or the newly built private spa suites with absolute privacy and personal wellness.

High-quality cuisine awaits you in the 20zwanzig restaurant, while the sauna and fitness facilities invite you to relax. While the medieval half-timbered streets of Stolberg nestle along the bed of the Thyra and the narrow Lude rivers in the valley below, the Hotel & Spa Suites FreiWerk is enthroned high up on the Thyrahöhe and offers you a beautiful view, and not just from the large sun terrace.

With seven new Private Spa Suites in the Hotel & Spa Suites FreiWerk, you can enjoy exclusive moments of peace and quiet - all to yourself. Each individual Private Spa Suite in the Harz Mountains is two-storey and has a living space of around 100 m² with absolute privacy.
The spa suites are also furnished with selected works of art from the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory. Sustainability is very important to us, which is why our private spa suites are made entirely of wood from local Harz spruce. In our suites in the Harz Mountains, you can expect plenty of space, a high-quality interior and everything your wellness heart desires.

You can indulge in complete relaxation on two floors. The spacious living area, a shower room and a loggia with a fantastic view of the forest are located on the lower floor. A staircase takes you to the heart of the spa suites: In addition to a bedroom with a balcony, here you will also find the exclusive vitality area with a designer bathtub, a steam and infrared sauna with colored light play, a Finnish sauna and rain shower - it could hardly be more beautiful. In addition to the vitality area, the absolute highlight awaits you in the upper area: a secluded loggia with a cozy corner, an exclusively designed whirlpool for up to two people and a wonderful view of the forest - alone or as a couple.

The spacious property has 111 rooms and suites in an impressive Art Nouveau building ensemble. The Gästehaus Halenberg welcomes arrivals in the spacious foyer, whose eye-catcher is God Bacchus, carved out of stone and enthroned above a soothingly rippling fountain. Guests can choose between modern rooms and suites in the Halenberg guest house and the tastefully furnished romantic rooms in the original guest houses. The detached Heimat & SPA Lodges on the mountain offer a very individual and discreet type of vacation.

Like the Gästehaus Halenberg, the SPA Frühlingsplätzchen is named after one of the premium vineyards on the Nahe. Covering an area of approx. 3,500m², the SPA is a wonderful place to relax in Finnish saunas, a bio sauna, steam baths, an indoor pool and whirlpool as well as five differently designed relaxation rooms. The wellness offer is complemented by outdoor attractions such as the Hubertus sauna, the 20-metre-long heated outdoor pool and the SPA garden by the river. In 2020, the exclusive Prana SPA celebrated its opening. It is dedicated to the "activation of energy centers", individual chakra work, meditation and aerial yoga.

The multi-award-winning wellness resort in the heart of Rhineland-Palatinate owes its fame not least to its exquisite cuisine: in addition to the Villa restaurant and the Hermannshof gourmet restaurant, the Jungborn attracts guests from near and far. For many years in a row, it has held the coveted Michelin star under the direction of chef Philipp Helzle. The newest event venue at BollAnts in Bad Sobernheim is the LINDEN bar & lounge. The kitchen team serves small and large dishes for lunch and dinner. The experienced bartender spoils you with creative cocktails, long drink classics and advises you on the choice from the extensive wine list.

Many guests also come to BollAnts for therapeutic fasting. Pastor Emanuel Felke once worked here and relied on the healing power of the natural elements of earth, light, air and water. The tradition of this Felke healing method has been continued and further developed under the medical direction of Dr. Axel Bolland. Together with his team at Felke Med Praxis, he looks after fasting guests who want to completely regenerate body and mind and embark on the "royal road to health".

Our offer: Overnight stay in a Wellness Classic room . Small, fine, cozy and stylish! The Wellness Classic rooms are generously equipped, some with a balcony and a view of the romantic Art Nouveau park. They are located in the historic part of the building ensemble, in the BollAnts Original Guest Houses. Other room categories are available for an extra charge. Our reservations department will be happy to help you find the right room.
