FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long should a wellness holiday last?

For a quick reset, three weekend days are the threshold at which sleep and pause noticeably set in. If the body is meant to truly settle, five to seven days is realistic, because the first two days usually pass with tiredness and digestive adjustment before energy and sleep improve in a lasting way. Longer stays of ten to fourteen days are mainly relevant for therapeutic fasting, base cures and ayurvedic programs, where treatment series need time to land. Across all 393 wellness programs in the catalogue, durations range from 2 to 21 days, with five to seven days as the centre. Prices currently span €81 to €11.900, averaging €1.235, depending on region, room category and program depth.

What is the difference between wellness, spa and kur?

Spa in the narrow sense is the treatment and bathing world with sauna, pool, massage and applications, freely bookable. A wellness holiday wraps this spa world into a week with movement, a calm daily structure and light food. A kur, by contrast, is originally medically supervised, with a doctor's intake, a diagnosis and a treatment protocol, classically three weeks long and often partly covered by health insurance. What is sold today as a kur is mostly a seven- to fourteen-day wellness week with kur-like building blocks such as therapeutic fasting or Kneipp applications. The catalogue covers all three lines: spa and wellness hotels, curated weeks, and houses with a medical-traditional kur profile. The line usually shows in the first sentences of a house's description.

Which regions are particularly known for wellness?

Within the German-speaking area, the focus sits in the Allgäu, the Black Forest, the Bavarian Alps, the Salzkammergut and Tyrol, complemented by the Mecklenburg Lake District and the Baltic Sea coast with its Kneipp and spa tradition. Around the Mediterranean, Mallorca leads, followed by Tuscany, the Algarve and individual houses on Sicily, Sardinia and Crete. Mediterranean houses lean towards outdoor time, mountain air and Mediterranean cuisine, while DACH houses focus more on Kneipp, therapeutic fasting and an alpine atmosphere. The catalogue currently lists 393 wellness programs. Which region fits depends most on the season, the climate you want and the daily structure you are after.

Which wellness components are usually included?

Typical components in a wellness week are morning movement sessions such as yoga, light pilates, a walk or a hike. There is usually at least one treatment per day, most often a massage, a facial or a bathing application. The kitchen is generally vegetarian or plant-led and often reduced. A quiet daily structure with clear mealtimes and afternoon rest belongs to the picture. Some houses add evening breathwork, meditation or sound sessions, others sauna, pool and free spa access. Across the 393 options the depth varies considerably, from hotel wellness with free booking to curated weeks with a fixed schedule. Which components a specific house offers is set out in its weekly structure.

How much does a wellness holiday cost?

Prices in the wellness segment spread widely because the category spans everything from a hotel spa weekend to a premium ayurvedic week. A weekend in a DACH wellness hotel with half board and spa access often sits between 250 and 500 euro per person. A curated wellness week with full board, a fixed program and treatments commonly runs from 900 to 1,800 euro, with comparable ranges in Mediterranean houses on Mallorca and in Tuscany. Ayurvedic and therapeutic-fasting weeks with daily treatments can land between 1,500 and 3,500 euro. Across the 393 programs in the catalogue, the range runs from €81 to €11.900, averaging €1.235. What drives the price is mainly the room category, the number of treatments and the meal scheme.

When is the best time of year for wellness?

Within the German-speaking area, wellness works year-round because sauna, pool and spa worlds run independently of the weather. Spring and autumn are classically strong, since many people deliberately plan their annual reset then, with base fasting, detox or a yoga module. Winter suits DACH houses with sauna and snowy walks, summer fits houses with outdoor pools and mountain or lakeside settings. Mediterranean wellness programs on Mallorca, in Tuscany and on the Algarve are densest from April to October, with peaks in May/June and September/October. To avoid summer heat, book outside the peak months. The catalogue currently offers 393 wellness programs spread across the year.
