Adults-only hotels by lakes and the sea for your getaway
In the Lakes & Sea category, you’ll find adults-only hotels for days by the water, relaxing wellness and holidays for two. An adults-only hotel might be set beside a mountain lake, stand on the Baltic coast or offer views across the Aegean. What matters is the atmosphere: you travel child-free, choose your accommodation to suit the landscape and your travel style, and find space for time together.
The selection ranges from adults-only wellness hotels with pools and saunas to boutique hotels serving regional cuisine. If you would like to learn more about the special features of an adults-only hotel by a lake, you’ll find further inspiration there. For your trip, you can choose between Alpine lakes, the North Sea and Baltic Sea, as well as Mediterranean coasts.
Alpine lakes and Austrian landscapes
Hotel Via Salina is located directly on Lake Haldensee in the Tannheimer Valley in Tyrol. This 4-star adults-only hotel combines mountain panoramas and a lakeside setting with a wellness area featuring indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, a steam bath and a jacuzzi. There’s also a private hotel beach on the lake, along with massages and treatments. Some rooms and suites have a private hot tub or wood-burning stove. In the evening, you can sit by the fire in the bar; half-board includes breakfast and a menu based on regional ingredients.
At Lake Wolfgang, the 4-star superior boutique hotel Cortisen am See welcomes you in St Wolfgang in the Salzkammergut region. The hotel is in Upper Austria and offers a 25-metre indoor pool as well as a spa area with treatments. Gourmet cuisine takes centre stage in the hotel’s restaurant. The individually designed rooms and suites incorporate art and distinctive details. For a stay combining a lake, wellness and a culinary focus, this hotel is a harmonious choice.
Adults-only hotels on Lake Constance and the Baltic coast
On the Bavarian side of Lake Constance, the 4-star adults-only hotel Lipprandt in Wasserburg combines a peaceful setting with facilities right by the water. The hotel has its own bathing beach, a garden with sunbathing lawn, an infinity pool, sauna and steam bath. You can book massages at the spa. The hotel restaurant serves a breakfast buffet in the morning and, on request, a three-course menu in the evening. The region of Bavaria is also ideal for walks by the lake and excursions along the shore.
If you prefer the open coast, the 5-star Strandhotel Dünenmeer in the Baltic Sea resort of Dierhagen offers a base on the Baltic coast. The hotel in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania features a spacious spa area, a sauna with sea views and a pool. Massages and beauty treatments complement the wellness offering. Dining options include the Ostseelounge gourmet restaurant and a fireside lounge. You can round off the day on the dune terrace with views of the coast; rooms and suites overlook either the sea or the coastal forest.
Mediterranean coasts for holidays for two
On the Croatian island of Brač, the 4-star adults-only hotel Lemongarden is located in Sutivan. Historic stone buildings and a garden by the sea define the hotel. The infinity pool, spa and massage facilities, along with the restaurant serving produce from its own garden and regional ingredients, give your stay a distinctly Mediterranean feel. Suites with balconies or terraces provide private outdoor space. In Dalmatia, you can spend your days between the coast, island villages and Croatian cuisine.
Above Kalo Livadi Bay on Mykonos lies the 4-star hotel Mykonos Bliss. This adults-only hotel offers views of the Aegean, modern suites with private hot tubs and a shared infinity pool overlooking the sea. The restaurant and Bar & Lounge are located directly on the grounds. The Mykonos region is a good fit if you’d like to combine a Greek island coastline with a stylish retreat.
In Cap d’Antibes on the Côte d’Azur, the 4-star Villa Fabulite awaits you. This boutique hotel for adults is designed in a Provençal style and set beside a Mediterranean garden. The restaurant and Bar & Lounge give your stay a French character. The suites have balconies or terraces. If you’re looking for relaxing days on the French Mediterranean coast, with walks, regional cuisine and time together, this hotel suits a peaceful itinerary.
Majorca: sea views and wellness
The 4-star Sentido Fido Punta del Mar in Santa Ponça offers you a child-free getaway with sea views in Majorca. The hotel has an infinity pool, a sauna and a spa area with massage treatments. Many rooms have a balcony or terrace. This makes it suitable for couples and solo travellers who want to combine a pool, warmth and body treatments with the Mallorcan coast. Santa Ponça Bay also offers opportunities for beach days and walks by the sea.
How to find the right hotel for you
