Lots of heart, plenty of variety and an extra portion of freedom - all in an environment that promises pure relaxation. Whether you come to us with family, friends or alone, the Böglerhof is a place to feel good, to take a deep breath and simply to be. In addition to a breathtaking natural backdrop, we offer you our new pure nature.spa, which pampers body and soul: from soothing massages and relaxing sauna sessions to a swimming lake with mountain views. Our spacious gardens invite you to let go of the daily grind and surrender to the moment.
What makes us special? The people, the attitude to life, the nature - we could go on like this for a while. But we want you to experience it for yourself. You'll love it, we promise!

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.

In the heart of the Bregenzerwald, surrounded by clear mountain air and vast nature, lies a place that slows down without standing still: the Sonne Mellau - Feel good Hotel. An adults-only boutique hotel that creates space for peace, ease and genuine relaxation - far away from noise, everyday life and obligations. With no minimum stay. But with all the more freedom.
What makes the Sonne special is its personal atmosphere. Few guests, plenty of space, open retreats - here everyone can be who they are. Host Natalie Läßer and her team live a warm, unobtrusive hospitality that creates closeness without being intrusive. Arriving here immediately feels right.

Wellness & exercise with a view
The 1,500 m² spa area offers a relaxing variety of saunas, steam baths, relaxation zones and an adventure garden pool. The offer is complemented by a modern fitness room, a bright yoga room and the popular sun deck - with a warm pool, comfortable loungers and a view of the mountains. A place to take a deep breath, let go and recharge your batteries.

Culinary delights that do you good
The exclusive all-inclusive cuisine combines regionality with lightness: fresh, healthy, creative. Many of the ingredients come from the Bregenzerwald, the cooking is modern and conscious - from breakfast to dinner. Enjoyment without compromise, included as a matter of course.
The Sonne Mellau is not a classic wellness hotel. It is a feeling. And a place that you will want to return to - in summer and winter.

The 5-star sports and pleasure hotel Silvretta in the heart of Ischgl has been run by the Zangerl family since it was established in 1930 and has retained its family atmosphere to this day.

In winter as well as in summer, guests experience warm attention and genuine Tyrolean hospitality. With the "sports and enjoyment" concept, every guest has the opportunity to choose their own focus for the holiday.

The rooms and suites of the hotel convince with a traditional and noble alpine design.

Another highlight of the hotel is the Vital.Spa Silvretta.Mondin. In our VITAL.SPA you will find the perfect balance to your sporting activities in nature. The 1200m² wellness and spa area extends over three levels and has two pools, various saunas, steam baths, a Sinnema and numerous beauty and body treatments. Only products from selected brands with natural ingredients are used. For all sports enthusiasts there is also a fitness area and in summer the free Silvretta activity program is available.

Due to the culinary diversity in the different restaurants, the guests can let themselves be pampered, leaving nothing to be desired. From traditional Tyrolean cuisine in the WIARTSHAUS or KITZLOCH restaurant to pizzas and Italian delicacies in the BÄRAFALLA restaurant or a delicious menu in the ALPIN half-board restaurant. Whether traditional, rustic or exclusive, there is something for every taste. Products from the in-house farm "Maashof" and from our own "Larein Alpe" are used in all restaurants. The guests are guaranteed the best Tyrolean quality. The hotel also has two après-ski bars: the KUHSTALL and the Kitzloch.

With only 26 accommodation units, this luxury hideaway is one of the smallest 5-star hotels in South Tyrol. The choice ranges from stylish suites to prestigious lake-side suites with direct access to the lake and four premium villas (one of which is on two floors) surrounded by the deep blue waters of the lake. These villas feature an exclusive highlight: a large wellness terrace equipped with a Finnish sauna, a private pool with integrated whirlpool, loungers and a private hammock suspended over the water. With an extensive privacy screen guaranteeing full privacy, you can indulge and enjoy your luxury holiday to the fullest.

Back to nature – the BalanceSPA is designed to help you experience a real connection with nature and Mother Earth, restore your balance and find a new sense of harmony with yourself and others. The fine materials, soothing colours and lush plants in the relaxation rooms provide a perfect environment in which to unwind. There are also 5 treatment rooms - 4 massage and beauty rooms and 1 Private Spa Suite for romantic moments for two - where you can entrust your beauty and well-being to the capable hands of a highly skilled team. The See Lodge Spa is a temple of harmony where premium products, advanced treatments and refined techniques combine to ensure all-round well-being and inner balance.

Small but perfectly formed, the BalanceSAUNA invites guests to sit back and regenerate. As is customary at Quellenhof, facilities include a Finnish sauna (for around 35 people) with regular events and infusions, as well as a wholesome steam bath, and a biosanarium with combo loungers where you can either sit or lie down. The outdoor area features a plunge pool and a garden with relaxation corners and a view of the lake.
Guests at the Quellenhof See Lodge can enjoy access to the lake from nearly every point of the estate. The 4,500 m² bathing lake, with a length of 105m the biggest pool in South Tyrol (!) and with depth ranging from 0.5 to 1.25 metres, can be accessed for a relaxing swim from almost any point. In addition to the lake, there is also an indoor pool in the spa area, which is directly connected to the year-round heated outdoor pool (25m in length).

The right balance between tension and relaxation – or exercise and rest – is the secret to a state of inner harmony. This is why the BalanceSPA offer is complemented by the extensive range of activities and facilities of BalanceSPORT. These include a perfectly equipped fitness room with cardio and weight machines (bikes, treadmills, weight bench, kinetics equipment) for strength and conditioning training. Personal trainers are available to provide professional support. The See Lodge also features a large rooftop garden complete with relaxation loungers and a YogaROOM. To round off the offer, we also organise a rich weekly programme of sports activities in the most scenic of all gyms – the great outdoors.

Besides sports and relaxation, dining is also an essential element of inner balance. Healthy and regional, yet delectable and innovative, the BalanceCUISINE led by chef Michael Mayr provides the perfect crowning to your holiday experience. In addition to our classic panoramic lake-view restaurant, the See Lodge delights guests with an exclusive speciality restaurant, our "underwarter restaurant", serving fresh fish daily. Mâitre d’Hotel and sommelier Matteo Lattanzi shares his passion for good wines with See Lodge guests and keeps the small wine cellar filled with the finest bottles on the market. A tasting of wines and local produce is the perfect crowning to a day of indulgence!

In addition to our outdoor and indoor pool with whirlpool, we offer you two new wellness areas with several Finnish and bio saunas, as well as two steam baths and an infrared cabin & infrared loungers under the motto "Ludwig meets Buddha".

On the approach to our sunny plateau (860 m) you are greeted by the Alpsee. A footpath behind the hotel leads to the Buchenegg waterfalls. And the biggest adventure playground awaits in front of it. The Alps.

Great breakfast buffet, 4-course menu of your choice and snack time or BBQ on the sun terrace every afternoon.

Even Aunt Lisl knew that in addition to mountains and well-fluffed pillows, you also need a good meal, a cozy place to relax, an open heart and good food for a really good gut feeling. That was over 70 years ago.
Since then, we as a family have gone many new ways to preserve this special feeling of home and to reinterpret vacation for you. Our wellness and hiking hotel Gassner **** superior has grown out of the small forest guesthouse - and the pretty Gassner tree house too.

As a genuine family business, we are the perfect complement, because we could hardly be more different. Together with our wonderful Gassner Seilschaft, we bring a lot of warmth, charm and life into the hotel. That's probably why so much of our work is so individual and varied.
Come and join us and be surprised by the wonderful way in which our contrasts attract you. Mia gfrein ins auf di!

Feel good
Still waters and cozy warmth. Deep-rooted naturalness and airy lightness. From inside to outside. From above to below. From sweet idleness to conscious being. In our Crystal and GardenSPA on over 1,200 m², the opposites merge so naturally that you will realize with a satisfied smile how wonderfully enriching it can be to always find a new favourite place for yourself. Before, after, instead or in between - you can mix everything with everything for a relaxing break.

Out and about
Are you a true child of nature and just as drawn to the outdoors as we are? Wonderful, because as a member of the best hiking hotels in the Alps, our main aim is to find strength and inspiration in nature all year round.
On at least 5 guided hikes, we, hiking guide Monika and boss Hans-Peter Gassner, would like to introduce you to the diversity of nature in the surrounding mountains, hike with you through blooming alpine pastures and climb over perpetual ice to the region's panoramic peaks.

We would like to accompany you on snowshoe and winter hikes to the idyllic snow-covered places of the Hohe Tauern National Park and show you personally how renewing it can be to walk at eye level with nature.

Gassner tree house
Wonderfully close to nature and also a little off the beaten track. 147 m² all to yourselves. A retreat for newlyweds, longtime lovers and the whole family. We believe that when it comes to togetherness, you need a particularly cozy place on this earth and so our dream of an extraordinary vacation nest is yours.

There are many beautiful houses. But the most important thing is the people who live in them, laugh together and do their best together. So feel free to speak from the heart and meet us at eye level.
