Finding the ideal holiday location for our little family can be a real challenge. As a mother of three, a nine year old boy and two six year old girl twins, we would certainly need to look after a child-friendly hotel. As I didn’t plan to bring neither my mother nor my mother in law along – I needed a real, real holiday – I was looking for a hotel which would offer facilities for kids and/or nanny services if we would like to go out and have a quiet dinner as a couple. My husband’s wish was to go hiking in Switzerland this year and I was happy to fulfil his wish as long as I could also find some room to cover my needs. I was desperate for some rest, some wellness and treatments. At least for those three weeks I would want to feel a little bit like a princess, being pampered, being served. Feeling like a woman rather than just like a “mum”. So on my search the focus was on finding a real luxury vacation which would promise make those dreams come true. After an extensive search I found a very luxurious wellness hotel on www.gstaad.ch .
We really loved the beautiful mountainside, the fresh air, the friendly people, the excellent service… There was some mini-club in the hotel which provided a number of nice activities for the kids and in the evening, whenever we felt the need the hotel concierge was happy to organize a nanny for us to take care of them. The holiday, all in, was a big success. My husband loved the hiking and the calm of the mountains, I really enjoyed the treatments and the Spa and after three weeks we were very relaxed and felt as good as new. And – guess what – next year I will be a mother of four…:-)
