YOUR HOSTS
KARINA AND JOSÉ MARIA
Escape to a hidden sanctuary nestled atop a majestic hill, where an international Austrian and a well-travelled Spaniard invite you to experience a truly magical retreat. Surrounded by a mystical forest and towering mountains, this secret hideaway offers a captivating blend of Austrian charm and Mediterranean allure.

This harmonious blend creates a unique and inviting ambiance, where comfort and style coexist.
Meet Karina, a Viennese native with a deep appreciation for the city life. However, she has discovered that the region around Mariazell provides the ideal setting to reconnect with her creativity and inner self. This exclusive location allows her to pursue artistic endeavours or personal goals amidst the breath-taking backdrop of trees, meadows, and nearby lakes. Having lived in various countries and explored the world, she has found solace in the serene silence of nature, gradually yearning less for the bustling energy of big cities.
Meanwhile, Jose Maria, hailing from the Aragon region of Spain, finds himself captivated by the starlit nights that reveal the universe’s wonders in crystal clarity. He adores the vivid colour palette that envelops the landscape during the summer months and the romantic scenes painted with fresh, white snow during winter. As a connoisseur of local cuisine, Jose Maria is an invaluable resource when it comes to discovering hidden gastronomic gems and savouring delicacies unique to the region.
