Our highlights
At our all-inclusive family hotels, you'll know what your vacation with the children will cost before you start and won't experience any nasty surprises when it comes to the bill. So you and your children are well looked after around the clock.
Unique wellness offers ensure that the whole family can switch off and relax: Parents and children enjoy wellness treatments tailored to their needs.
Whether it's a children's cinema with a big screen, Dolby Surround and film classics or a stage for theater and children's disco the next day: the Smiley Plexx inspires with variety and, of course, lots of fun.
Parents know: The first time with a baby takes a lot of energy, time and sleep.
That's why we offer qualified baby care that allows you to recharge your batteries for a few hours and have time for yourself.
