Your hosts

Schwabl family

At the Ellmauhof, hospitality is not played - it is lived. And from the heart, from generation to generation. Behind our family paradise are people with passion, a down-to-earth attitude and an open ear for young and old.

 

> Stefan is a passionate farmer and hotelier - he repairs, organizes and lends a hand wherever strong hands are needed.

> Christine is the good soul of the house: with a fine sense of style, a lot of heart and an open ear for our guests, she ensures the loving charm of the Ellmauhof.

> Johanna, the eldest of the three children, loves horse riding, handicrafts and flower arranging - wherever creativity is required, she is enthusiastically involved.

> Katharina is full of joie de vivre and a whirlwind around the house - she is already dreaming of working in the wellness area one day.

> Stefan Junior is in no way inferior to his great role model - he is out and about with Grandpa every day, knows the farm like the back of his hand and would like to become a farmer at Ellmauhof one day.

> Grandma Gertraud and Grandpa Konrad are our testers of enjoyment, rock in the surf and always a helping hand - with heart, experience and lots of love for the family business.

ONE HOLIDAY. ONE PRICE.

 

  1. Babies and toddlers

Special baby equipment in the room and throughout the resort ensures maximum comfort - from cribs and changing mats to bottle warmers. The varied baby buffet with freshly prepared porridges and HIPP products offers everything that little gourmets need. For carefree parental leave, loving baby care is available daily from 4 months.

 

  1. Children

Over 10,000 m² of indoor and outdoor children's worlds invite you to explore. The centerpiece is the "Spielstodl" children's house with a nature playroom, two-story active playroom, creative workshop, mini cinema and much more. Outside, there is an adventure playground, a ball sports hall and a large petting zoo.

A highlight is the hotel's own farm with mini farm: rabbits, goats, sheep, guinea pigs, chickens, cats and mini ponies look forward to being stroked. In the farm garden you can sniff, pick and taste - very close to nature.

Children can gain their first riding experience at the professionally run riding academy - whether it's a taster ride, pony rides or in the riding kindergarten. Riding lessons in dressage, cavaletti and lunging lessons are also available, as are guided rides in summer. The spacious riding facility with panoramic riding hall, lunging hall and riding arena will delight young horse fans all year round.

Those who prefer to get out into nature can start right outside the resort on a mountain bike, running shoes or on a hiking tour in the Pinzgau grass mountains.

 

  1. Parental leave - freedom with a good feeling

While the children are lovingly looked after - from 4 months in the baby care, from 1 year in the Kids Club - parents can enjoy precious moments all to themselves at the Ellmauhof. Whether in the 1,500 m² wellness area with Spa1272, with a relaxing massage or a time-out in the panoramic sauna with a view of the mountains - here you can take a break from everyday life.

If you prefer to be active, slip into your hiking boots or get on your bike - tours into the untouched nature of the Glemmtal start right on the doorstep.

And because relaxation also includes culinary delights, the Smaragd System spoils you with first-class cuisine: from a gourmet breakfast and lunch buffet to a gourmet menu of your choice with wine accompaniment in the evening. Regional products, organic baby food, children's buffets and exquisite wines - everything included, everything uncomplicated.

 

  1. Grandma-grandpa time - experience together what connects

Grandparents also get their money's worth at the Ellmauhof. The comfortable, barrier-free rooms and the quiet location offer the best conditions for a relaxing vacation. But the time with the grandchildren is really lively:

Whether leading ponies together, feeding them at the mini farm, exploring the adventure playground or taking a leisurely carriage ride through the Hinterglemm valley - here, moments are created that connect and last.

Lots to do!
