Our vacation in Salzburg.

Review Submitted: September 10, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We've stayed at the apartment as a family of 5 between the 17-27 of august 09. We chose the apartment after searching the internet for a place to stay in Austria mainly because of the description of it which was more than we could hope for - the apartment was very accessorized, comfortable and made us feel at home. It was also very clean and well-maintained, and the housekeeper was lovely and available for all of our needs.
The owner provided all the information that we needed to know about the house equipments, the services in town
and in all of the area that we've stayed in.
The town itself is very nice and welcoming and the nearest town is beautiful and has a lot to offer the tourists in matter of activities, attractions and restaurants.
We enjoyed our staying very much and we're highly recommending this property to everyone who seeks a vacation in Salzburg.

Holiday in Rauris

Review Submitted: September 3, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My family and I experienced the most wonderful holiday staying at this wonderful holiday apartment in Rauris. The apartment was extremely well equipped and clean and beautiful throughout. It surpassed all our expectations of a holiday rental. The scenery from the balcony all around the apartment was spectacular and we were spoilt for choice regarding things to do, from walking, hiking, cycling , riding in a cable car to the top of amazing scenic mountains. I would highly recommend this holiday home to anybody who wants to relax in luxury.

Brilliant apartment, great for families.

Sean & Jo Reading, England
Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
A really well presented apartment with a great central living and kitchen area that meant we could prepare our meals whilst the kids were watching TV or DVD's. The bedrooms offer flexibility and are comfortable for 6 guests.

After a long day on the slopes the superb shower room offers a refreshing power shower or the ensuite offers a hot relaxing soak in the bath.

The drying room means all kit is dry and ready for the next day on the slopes.

The apartment is 5 minutes drive or bus ride to the ski slopes at Rauris. The facilities in Rauris are great, with good bars/restaurants and supermarket for self catering provisions.

We ventured up into the valley to see the eagles at the head of the valley and do a little bit of tobagganing with the children.

A great day out into the next valley picks up the thermal spa in Bad Gastein.

A truely lovely apartment well located for slopes and local facilities, the kids loved it, so we'll definately be back!
