Questions families often ask

Do you have a cot and a high chair?

Yes, on request. Just let us know what you need when you book or send your enquiry.

Is the indoor pool suitable for small children?

The pool has no shallow area for non-swimmers. Children are very welcome but may only swim when accompanied by an adult – armbands and swimming aids are welcome.

Are there reductions for children?

Our prices depend on the number of people in the apartment; every person counts the same. In return, the indoor pool, sauna, final cleaning and parking are already included – and booking direct with us always gets you the best price.

What can families do on rainy days?

The indoor pool in our house is always there. Minimundus in Klagenfurt has a large hall for rainy days, and Villach and Klagenfurt offer museums, shops and cafés.

Which apartment suits our family?

For families with two or three children we recommend the family apartment with about 78 m² and its own children's room (up to 5 people). Families with one child also fit into the apartment with bedroom (up to 4 people).
