Travel & Hospitality Awards - Europe 2022

Lake
Getting back in touch with nature doesn’t
happen faster than when you’re surrounded
by serene lakes, greenery, and the gentle
sounds of wildlife. Lakeside retreats have
always been popular, but interest has gone
through the roof since COVID-19.
Spending time on the lakefront, particularly
on and in the water, is said to be restorative
and beneficial to your health, so we think
one of the best ways to slow down and
breathe deeply is in Boliden Sweden at
the Pike Paradise Lodge. Comfortable
accommodation is offered in a traditionallybuilt
lodge where you can partake in fishing.
If you want to completely immerse yourself
and be surrounded by water, then you
should consider staying on a boat. It doesn’t
get much more serene than chartering a
stunning luxury yacht on Italy’s famed lake
Como. Perfectly suited to a true getaway,
be surrounded by water, stunning views,
and a unique sense of privacy.
Wellness
As we lead increasingly busy
lives, you might feel that one of
the missing elements is time
to spend on wellness. Looking
after your health on a wellness
retreat will allow you to return
feeling rested, recharged, and
healthy again.
The volcanic island of Tenerife
might be famous for its sun and
sand, but tucked away in the quiet
north is the luxury wellness resort of
Johannesbad Thermalhotel Ludwig
Thoma. They offer world-class
regenerative health programmes, a
state-of-the-art spa, a fine-dining
restaurant, and luxurious rooms.
If you’re looking for a familyfocused
experience, then the right
type of retreat for you could be the
amazing Stroblhof Active Family
Spa Resort. This mountainous
wellness retreat offers a complete
experience from start to finish.
