Once again Nirvana Spa and Austria’s Finest Spa Hotels & Resorts have teamed up to give you the opportunity to win a fabulous spa break for two

In association with

Nestled in Austria’s stunning Tirol province, the Schwarz Alpine Spa & Resort is a traditional, family-run, lakeside spa retreat designed with your complete well-being in mind. Combining a huge spa and state-of-the-art health and fitness suite with year-round sporting activities, luxury accommodation, and breathtaking mountain scenery, the Schwarz Alpine Spa & Resort is the perfect getaway for a fantastic

spa break, summer and winter.

The hotel’s exclusive spa is an oasis of serenity, combining traditional techniques with the latest technology to ensure you are refreshed, rejuvenated and relaxed. The bright, spacious and elegantly designed modern spa complex includes:

·          A state-of-the-art health and fitness suite including specially tailored personal coaching, lifestyle consultation and relaxation programmes.

·          Luxurious indoor and outdoor swimming pools including a year-round heated garden pool with stunning views of the Mieming plateau.

·          A complete sauna sanctuary – offering every indulgence from salt water to a Turkish hamam, and organic herbal baths to a soothing outdoor alpine sauna.

·          A full range of traditional and contemporary massage and beauty treatments for the harmonisation of body and soul.

·          Tranquil relaxation areas to revive the mind, body and soul between treatments.

The hotel itself is continuously undergoing ‘surgical improvements’ and it has just created the largest pool landscape in the country located in one of the most attractive hotel gardens in Austria. To integrate a superlative pool landscape into this area required a very subtle approach but its successful completion saw the opening of the Schwarz Water World with seven pools and a ‘Nature Experience’ lake.

The hotel’s lovingly tended and manicured garden, covering 32,000m², is spectacular and has been awarded the Garden of Eden State Prize for Tourism of the Austrian Republic. The Hotel Schwarz has developed from being a pioneer of the spa and wellness concept, to offering its guests a unique bathing oasis with Schwarz Water World.

The new indoor pool is an open building, flooded with natural light. There is a 20m sports pool and the ‘Experience’ pool, complete with waterfall and grotto. A large number of relaxation lounges and extremely comfortable water beds are located on different levels and all have views of the garden and the surrounding Alpine scenery. The open chimney and a small tea bar provide ‘ambience par excellence’. The diversity of the pools, the stylish building design, the many lovingly applied details and the very special position of the hotel makes the Schwarz Alpine Spa & Resort a dream holiday destination that will not be forgotten.
