About us

The nearly 100-year-old, fully renovated villa is located in a garden with ancient trees, a 5-minute walk from the Balaton shore and beach. Our guests can enjoy the view of the Lake from our terrace (patio) and some of our rooms. An intimate and inspiring environment in the picturesque Balatonszepezd, which is not crowded and noisy even in summer, at the gate of the Káli Basin. Our boutique hotel is not only unique due to its special immediate and more distant environment, but its interior style has also received several awards (ELLE Decoration, Forbes, Top Design award, countless other -unpaid- media appearances.) We are one of just over a hundred 5-star rated accommodations in the country (including large luxury hotels). We have more than 250 Google profile reviews with a score of 5.0. We have never received anything from a guest other than five stars! Since opening, we have received the Booking.com "Traveller Review Awards" every year with a rating of 9.8-9.9. The WeLoveBalaton portal has chosen us as one of its favorites. Our gastronomic performance has been recognized several times in addition to guest feedback.

Accommodation

We can accommodate guests in a total of 8 rooms in the Villa. You can request a double bed or 2x single beds. One of our rooms can be added with an extra bed, so we can accommodate a total of 17 people in the Villa. Within a distance of 50 meters, there are accommodations with which we regularly cooperate when there is a need for single rooms and the number of people is more than 8 people. So we can flexibly manage the number of people and accommodation up to and including the capacities indicated for the rooms.

Services, opportunities

There is a closed parking lot for up to 8 cars at the disposal of the Guests. There are many additional free parking options in front of the Villa and in the immediate vicinity. By prior arrangement, we can also provide electric car charging for one vehicle at a time. The shady garden and the covered grill terrace closed on 2 sides provide many opportunities for ideal organization of various corporate and family events. Stepping out of the gate, our Guests can be in the endless forest or on the Balaton shore within 5 minutes. The nearby small but well-equipped beach also provides an opportunity for family and peaceful relaxation. If you are not having lunch or dinner with us, there are many restaurants, pizzerias, and pastry shops in the area, from the "checkered tablecloth" to the "Michelin recommended". All important sights of the entire North Coast are reachable by car within 15-45 minutes, but several points of the South Coast can be visited within 30-40 minutes from the Révfülöp boat station, which is 6 km away.
