We stayed in the park for a week in March and had a VIP vacation home. Absolutely not recommended for people with house dust allergies! For everyone else, have a vacuum cleaner in hand and the hut is clean after 20 minutes. The houses are very functional and not fraught with great luxury. We had two very nice bathrooms and a bath and shower, each connected to the bedroom. The only drawback was the only toilet which was in the front of the entrance area of the house and is almost too small for people from 1.90 meters in height. Acrobatic skills when putting on and taking off pants and when sitting down are an advantage here. A second larger toilet is definitely missing here! The sauna could be regulated to a limited extent and also visibly from the state from the end of the 80s, the wood paneling arches in all directions and it creaks frighteningly at the slightest movement. We booked the breakfast package and had bread rolls in front of the door every morning. The rolls were OK. The park itself is beautiful, pure forest location. However, tree care should be reconsidered / improved here in particular! We had a storm for two days and rain the rest of the week. Most of what was hanging on the deadwood came down. It can be done better and, above all, safer!
Overall, we were very satisfied. We were aware that all non-inclusive services cost a lot of money.
The reason for two stars is not one of the aforementioned points!
We were in the park for my birthday, and my family came to visit for two days as a surprise. We went to Aqua Mundo on Saturday, the swimming pool was very full, if not overcrowded! There are sufficient lifeguards in the bathroom, but they cannot keep track of everything. So the doom took its course. With my parents, brother-in-law and my two nieces we went to the whitewater in the pool. We slid down one after the other with sufficient distance, but more and more people squeezed into the train, overtook themselves or stopped in the middle. The lifeguards sat or stood at various sections on the edge, no one kept order here. In the last section, my mother avoided someone "standing still" and hit the side of her head against the stone walls. My birthday surprise was gone and my mother drove back to the hospital with my father twenty minutes after arriving in the park in Germany, where her wound had to be stitched! The frightening thing was that I fished my mother out of the water in the last section completely dazed and the lifeguard only came to help after yelling at several times. Well noticed he was sitting 3-4 meters away from us! There is still a lot to learn here when it comes to safety.
