July 2025 - a Castel story from the Dobitsch family

Detox for eyes and soul

Personal well-being is the foundation for a fulfilling life, for physical and mental health, at any age. Happy people are demonstrably healthier and happier, more cheerful and content, they live more consciously and longer.

"Treat yourself to some time out.

For your inner and outer balance."

Let your gaze wander

A place to pause for thought

Situated on a quiet south-facing slope above Merano, surrounded by picturesque apple orchards and sun-drenched vineyards with traditional grape varieties such as Vernatsch and Lagrein, the Castel holiday retreat is a place of impressive sensory experiences.

The view sweeps across the lively valley up to the sky and captures a fascinating panorama: striking rock formations, gentle alpine pastures, dense forests and idyllic villages, whose colours and structures constantly unfold new contrasts as the seasons change.

A warm welcome

In harmony with the surroundings

This South Tyrolean landscape impresses with its powerful originality, its diversity and at the same time its calming clarity. Tranquillity is an omnipresent, central element of well-being here. At the Castel, it unfolds in a multi-layered way through harmonious architecture that uses soothing colours, fine materials, soft light, subtle fragrances and loving details to create spaces that meet individual needs for retreat and relaxation.
