Water plays a big role in family holidays at Hotel Deichkrone. It's a place for movement, joy and first experiences. At the same time, it's important to us to clearly show where children are welcome and where calm has been deliberately created for adults. So you know exactly what to expect.
Our swimming area is designed so you can quickly get your bearings, and your children can find exactly the spot that suits their age and ability.
For babies and toddlers
Your youngest splash about in their own, warmly heated area. It's calm here, with plenty of room to play and suitable toys for first encounters with water. This way, your children can get to know the water in a sheltered environment.
For older children
In the large pool, your children can swim, dive, practise and try things out. Even if they're still becoming more confident in the water, they'll find good conditions here. The swimming school also uses this area to gently guide your children as they learn to swim.
Adults Only
Our swimming pool is open, clearly laid out and designed with families in mind – so you can always keep an eye on your children. Right next door is the Adults-Only wellness area with saunas and a relaxation room. From there, the view of the pool remains: close to family life, but deliberately calm. This area is reserved exclusively for adults and offers warmth, peace and a sheltered retreat. Beauty and massage treatments, as well as the roof terrace, are located on the second floor of the new building – a separate place to switch off and breathe. This clear separation matters to us: while your children enjoy the water area, you can consciously relax here.
Who says wellness is only for adults? We believe relaxation is good for children and teens too, which is why we've prepared suitable treatments for them as well, along with special family sauna times.
With the children's full-body massage, your kids can relax after an active day and gather new energy for their next adventure. The treatment is gentle and specially tailored to children.
For teens, we offer an age-appropriate facial treatment tailored to the special needs of young skin.
Learning to swim is so important: swimming is a basic skill, just like riding a bike or walking. As a parent, you know: your child can help themselves, whether in the pool or at a lake. Even in the sea, a newly trained "Flipper" can stand quite differently next to mum and dad once they've mastered the technique and can move through the water.
Familotel Swimming School
We believe it's important to teach children to swim, and we've noticed this skill is no longer a given. All the more reason we've made it our mission to teach children to swim in a relaxed, stress-free environment. Our swimming school has already guided many proud new swimmers through their first lengths. Many parents have proudly sewn their child's first-earned swimming badge onto their swimwear using the sewing kit in the hotel room – take the opportunity to make this big step calmly and without everyday stress while on holiday.
One thing's always clear: where do all the water lovers meet when the sea isn't around? In one of our two swimming pools at the hotel! And how lovely it is when a little hotel guest has their first experiences of bathing and swimming here in the large pool or the small baby pool, at cosy, warm temperatures.
