Not single? Sorry, no room for you
With previous posts on tourism for debauchery, nudism and speed-dating, looks like I keep an eye out for naughty opportunities on the road. Truth is, with the increasing number of such "official" options, they are hard to miss. The opening of what is being called the "world's first singles resort" in Austria, therefore, comes as no surprise. Called Aviva Singles Resort and Spa, word is that if you have any sort of formal or informal attachment, you are not welcome. How do they check that? I'm guessing they take your word for it. Anyway, if you lie, it's unlikely they care unless your "attachment" hunts you down and creates a scene in this new free-love hotel.
The website is only in German but long live Babelfish, which allowed me to figure out that the hotel has two selling points: 1) it is for those who want to escape from everything familiar and be alone, 2) it's for those who are single and want to meet other singles. The resort offers the usual community facilities (gym, sports, bars, spa, restaurants), but the concept encourages mingling.Other than that, they have a singles club (details of which I couldn't decipher) and a singles shuttle that drives guests coming from Vienna and Munich so the "mingling" can begin en route. The resort is located in St. Stephan am Walde.
The website could be that of any 4-star hotel. It looks very sophisticated and other than the photo gallery that pictures hot men and women interacting, it doesn't really elude to a wild time; but perhaps the lure is in the subtlety of it all.
And, while we're on the subject, here's a list of Best Hotels for Singles as evaluated by Hotel Chatter.
