Congratulations to the following travelettes who have won one of yesterday’s great giveaways! The pillows go to Kristin, Jules and Kate. The prints go to Anna-Marie, Sofie and Daniela.
29 more sleep until Christmas, but you’ll be sleeping like a baby if you can get your hands on today’s give-away. It’s amazing the wonderful Strandhaus Spreewald isn’t fully booked for the next three years, because everyone who comes here L.O.V.E.S it! I mean how often do you see a 9.3 rating for customer satisfaction on Booking.com? I am all the more excited to announce that in today’s calendar door we have 2 nights for 2 people at this wonderful boutique resort & spa.
The Strandhaus is located in a stunning natural setting, overlooking the beautiful green shore of the river Spree. This is one of those destinations that is amazing all year-round. Swimming, biking and canoeing in summer or long walks through the snowy forest in winter followed by hot chocolates in front of the fireplace. Sound good yet? Well, what if we told you that on op of the 2 nights at this gorgeous place you get breakfast and dinner as well as free spa usage AND a rowboat rental for a relaxing float through the Spreewald (a UNESCO reserve consisting of about 200 small canals).. BLISS.
With it’s gorgeous terrace views and state-of-the-art facilities, this is the place to kick back and put your feet up. Not much sounds better than lazily floating along a peaceful canal being surrounded by pristine nature. Well, that is unless you mention a day of relaxation at the spa (that might sound a teensy bit better). But luckily, guests of the Strandhaus Spreewald won’t have to choose since they can do both!
The Strandhaus Spreewald is part of GreenPearls, a portfolio of hand-selected, sustainable and unique places in the world, a selection of hotels with a greener vision and consequently a progressive outlook into a more environmentally friendly future. If you like your ecological footprint to remain extra small, this is your place.

I've been wanting to go to Germany for ages, atleast beyond the Frankfurt airport on a layover that is, and this would be a great way to narrow down where to go!
Looks amazing!
Ahh this is so much fun. Every time you post a giveaway I start brainstorming how I could build a trip around it! I'd love to take this trip because I think I'd love to explore it in the winter. I've never traveled in the winter and I think it'd be a great experience to relax and take in the beautiful scenery by a fire!
I wolud love to visit this place, tour the area and relax at the resort afterwards
This looks absolutely amazing! My day job (in an office) has been so stressful lately so I am anxiously looking forward to 2016 and planning some more trips. My best friend has only been out of the country once (to China) so we've been trying to decide where to go in 2016. This looks like it'd be a yummy retreat for both of us if I won, it'd be fabulous!
I love this post! I would like to stay at this place because of the opportunity with would give me to explore nature at its finest moment! I haven't ever gone canoeing or hiking before and this would give me the perfect chance to do both! Especially in a beautiful country such as Germany!
Sounds like a dream ❤️
This looks amazing! I would love to stay here for some beautiful relaxation, and also so I can sarcastically reenact the Notebook scene in the rowboat :)
This looks so relaxing and I love the change to enjoy beautiful scenery at any time of year
Because it's amazing and it's gut for me ja!
This place looks amazing. My boyfriend and I are backpacking Europe for 9 months and would absolutely love to have a weekend of relaxation after months of roughing it. We really enjoy being in nature, so the chance to explore the river and surrounding woods would be a treat. And it's the best of both worlds because we could decompress at the end of the day in the spa! We'd really appreciate a stay here!
This looks fantastic! Would be great to get away out of grey and grumpy Berlin for a weekend. :)
This would make the absolute best Christmas gift for my boyfriend. He's had a super tough year and so deserves it. Also, I wouldn't mind tagging along ;), and I've wanted to visit the Spreewald forever! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
I want to win this prize because Germany is where my family originated from and Is also my favorite country. I would love to go back and be able to give my family a experience like this that will last a lifetime!!!
This would be perfect. I'm sure I could convince my travel-phobic boyfriend to join me if I won!
Strandhaus Spreewald sounds wonderful in every way! I can smell nature and the spa oils through the pictures. What really appeals to me, is that the place looks very modern but still has a touch of quaintness to it. This would be a dream come true for me as I love spas, outdoors and hotels with food included!
I would love to stay here and relax with my boyfriend. We're currently living in Austria but in April we move back to Holland, where he's from. Staying at this place would make a good transition and a chance to celebrate our 1 year anniversary.
J'aimerai beaucoup me reposer, faire du vélo, et profiter du spa ainsi que du restaurant!
Same post as on the Facebook post, don't know where to participate ^^ This is trully a dreamy hotel! I've already been in Germany, but never in Spreewald, would love to!! Plus: that would be perfect to relax with my boyfriend as we can't see each other often. I'd love to win the stay in this superb nature based and relaxing hotel! Fingers crossed !
Yaaas!! I would love it!!
Oh my goodness! That place looks amazing. With two young toddlers, my husband and I definitely need a place to kick back and relax for a few nights!!! Thanks for hosting this amazing giveaway.
I have never been to Germany before, and this seems like the perfect way to see it for the first time! Too bad a hot German guy is not included. :D
I want to stay in Strandhaus because it seems to be the perfect place to spend first days of spring in. I'd wake up early in the morning to jog in the forest, eat breakfast outside, go to sauna, have a nice massage and read one of Jane Austen's books and think about my next adventures. Also, I's like to explore the surroundings more as I've never been in this part of Germany. I'd also love to go there to see this nice harmonious combination of tradition and modern architecture. I love wood! :)
I haven't been to Germany properly yet (only driving through) but Ialways wanted to go. It would be a nice way to refresh my almost forgotten German. Also, I love the desin in this hotel and that it's environmentally friendly.
Germany is on our radar for next summer! Perfect couple trip! :)
Oh dear. We travelled to the region two years ago but had to leave early due to a family member getting sick but we would love to come back one day and this lovely looking hotel would be the perfect starting point!!
I'd love to stay in this peaceful romantic retreat for one simple reason: bliss. this magical sounding word for me includes everything else I wish for this tjme of the year such as love, peace, relax, balance, ....
I'd love to stay here because it's in the middle of nature and I love to explore the outside world! Plus, I've never been to Germany so it would be fulfilling my need to go places I've never been as well as seeing international forests.
I live in Berlin and would love a weekend getaway!
So I am 5 minutes late, hope that still counts. This place sounds like a very peaceful and quite unique place I would love to experience myself. I comsider vacation and travel within germany way too little. Thanks for this great 4th of december opportunity- weekend can come
Looks like peace, nature and relaxation... exactly what I need right now!
Over 70 years of age but the traveling bug is still there and I think we have plenty of trips left in us!
Strandhaus Spreewald sounds amazing! My hubby and I live in Germany and we love traveling together, we have been hoping to have a snowy weekend away to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary in January 2016. I love that the hotel is eco-friendly and dedicated to sustainability. I would LOVE to experience staying here!
Please please please pick me. I would love nothing more than a relaxing getaway to the Strandhaus Spreewald and my mom would be my guest of choice. This year will be my first Christmas away from my family and although it will be hard to be away from them this would give me & my mom something to look forward to. I would love to treat my mom in the new year and have our own belated christmas celebrations in beautiful Germany
THIS IS MY PLACE! :) <3 Well, 'will' be if I get this awesome giveaway. I've been awake for a week in doing three freelancing jobs (luckily I had time to see travelettes' newsletter while on the road) I would definitely love to lay my back in any part of Strandhaus Spreewald. Green, Blue, White and those earthy lumbers - totally boosted my energy and beat my deadlines. I am missing Germany so much, especially this Christmas Market season. Looking forward to visit Nürnberg again and the rest of Bavaria for unending exploration of UNESCO Sites. And oh, I've never been to Lübben. Yay! This would be perfect for a Digital Conference I will be attending in May next year in Berlin. :D
My wife and I love exploring the outdoors so we would love to visit this awesomely modern yet rustic looking resort! Plus, we have never been to Germany, but my wife's family is from there so it would be a wonderful opportunity to visit and meet new relatives!
Hi, An Indian here who has backpacked only throughout India and met a guy named Eric from Germany at the beaches of Gokarna. Whenever i see any about Germany post i remember the amazing time spent with the Yoga fanatic and my friend Eric.
Love Germany through the people that i met from Germany.
