Your first holiday with a baby is something special. Exciting, beautiful, and sometimes a little challenging. At Familienresort Buchau, this kind of holiday is easy to enjoy. Because it has everything you and your little ones need. Because caring hands are there for you when you need a break. And because you ’ll have your mind free for what really matters: those first moments of happiness together at Lake Achensee.

Comfort from the very first moment

Babies can tell straight away whether they feel comfortable. That’s precisely why we’ve created a dedicated childcare area at Familienresort Buchau for our youngest guests aged 0 to 2. It’s quiet here. There’s a soft ball pit to dive into and a separate bedroom for an afternoon nap. Here, our qualified childcare staff will lovingly look after your baby, seven days a week, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. On request and for a fee, we can also arrange a private babysitter for you if you’d like to treat yourselves to an evening out together. We’ve put together some further information on this topic for you here:

Morning

Your baby wakes up and the day begins at your own pace. A glance out of the window at Lake Achensee, a moment of calm before we set off.

Breakfast

We’re all going to the restaurant together. The high chair is ready, the HIPP jar is being warmed up, and the coffee is steaming. Whilst your baby tries the baby food, you can enjoy your breakfast.

Late morning

Your first visit to the FREDS SWIM ACADEMY is on the agenda. During the baby swimmingcourse for babies aged 4 months and over, your child will gently get used to the water, together with you in the pool. Or you could take a stroll around Lake Achensee with the stroller while your baby drifts off to sleep in the fresh air.

Lunch break

Your baby is sleeping in the room; the baby monitor is within easy reach. You enjoy a light snack from the lunch buffet and a few quiet moments on the sun terrace. Or you can relax together.

Afternoon

You bring your baby to the supervised play area, where there’s a ball pit, a mobile, and caring carers. Why not treat yourself to a massage or a dip in the infinity pool with a view of the mountains? Come and collect your baby whenever you like.

Late afternoon

Your baby is beaming; the kids have been playing, laughing, and dozing a little. Together, you stroll down to the lake – the stroller from the sports shop rolls quietly along the lakeside path.

Evening

Your baby is asleep. The mobile spins quietly, the night light glows softly. You close the door and enjoy your evening meal together, with the baby monitor always within reach.

Arrive without having to lug everything along

You know this all too well: anyone travelling with a baby tends to pack half their household. At Familienresort Buchau it’s different. With the Baby Perfect Service, you’ll find everything you need for your baby’s first few years in your room and throughout the hotel. From cots and baby baths to bottle warmers. From baby care sets to HIPP baby food. Arrive with just a light bag – we’ll take care of the rest for you.

Just a quick reminder: 
please remember your child’s favourite personal items: dummy, comfort blanket, cuddly toy, their usual brand of nappies, or a specific brand of formula. You’ll find everything else here.

When babies become little explorers

The baby is turning into a toddler. Crawling turns into walking, sounds turn into words, and wonder turns into discovery. At Familienresort Buchau, the possibilities are growing too. The little ones are zipping around the playground in bobby cars. In the dwarf pool, with a water feature and a triple slide, they get used to the water in a playful way. And for those very special firsts, we’ve come up with some truly special experiences for you and the little ones.

So that you can truly unwind

While your child is in good hands, you have time to yourself. A soothing massage at the spa. A walk to the Dalfazer waterfall, which starts right behind the hotel. A few peaceful laps in the infinity pool, with views of the Karwendel and Rofan mountains. Or simply relax in the sun with a book and a cup of coffee. This is what a holiday with a baby and a toddler feels like when everything is just right.
