All Preidlhof’s transformational well-being retreats are designed to offer a balance between the physical and spiritual, pain release and pleasure, the intellectual and the ethereal, the hedonic and the eudemonic. It is this balance which helps lead you to a state of flow where you can flourish. 

As Patrizia Bortolin, our Spa Director and architect of ‘The Preidlhof Way’ explains, “Our goal is to promote a lifestyle with a ‘hedonic’ approach to the present, to savour this, while also bringing an ‘eudemonic’ approach to the past and future, to make them count.”

The “hedonic” side of our offering is playful and enlivening, it calls to the lover of beauty and joy. It might be discovered through our six-floor Sauna Tower with its numerous saunas and Turkish baths, a swim in the sunlit rooftop pool, a bracing hike or with a blissful facial. 

Meanwhile, the “eudemonic” pulls on a deeper thread which reaches the core of your inner essence, meaning and purpose. It yields a spiritual understanding of life’s continuum, threading past to present to future. It can be experienced, perhaps, through a session with a trauma healer, a Yoga Nidra lesson, aura-cleansing ritual or a mystical sound therapy treatment – anything that brings you back to yourself and creates greater self-awareness and knowing.
