OMG! Infinity Pool Paradise in the Austrian Alps! (Sankt Martin) - My Brain Dump of Awesome (and a Few Quirks)

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I just escaped the sheer, unadulterated gorgeousness of OMG! Infinity Pool Paradise in Sankt Martin, Austria, and I'm basically a walking, talking exclamation point. Forget your stuffy, chain-hotel reviews. This is gonna be raw, it's gonna be real, and it's gonna be about whether this place actually delivers on that "infinity pool paradise" promise. Spoiler alert: it mostly, gloriously, does.

First Impressions (and OMG, That Pool!)

The name says it all. OMG. Seriously. The first thing that smacks you in the face (after the crisp mountain air, obvi) is that infinity pool. You walk out, take a breath, and… BAM. Turquoise water melting into a panorama of the Austrian Alps. It’s staged perfectly – like a movie set. I almost forgot to check in, just wanting to dive right in – which, by the way, is the correct response. That's where most everyone spends the bulk of their time, drinking in that incredible view.

Accessibility: Smooth Sailing (Mostly)

Now, I'm not a wheelchair user, but I did take a good look around with accessibility in mind. They seem to have done a decent job! There's an elevator, and the public areas appear to be wheelchair-friendly. I noticed some ramped access and wide doorways, which is a good start. However, I didn’t see specific bathroom setups, so I'd definitely recommend contacting the hotel directly if you have specific needs. They generally seem attentive and willing to help, an important factor that's often overlooked.

The Vibe: Relaxation Station (and a Tiny Hiccup)

This place screams relaxation. There are so many ways to unwind. The spa/sauna area is gorgeous - and I'm not usually a sauna person, but I loved the experience there. They had a beautiful steamroom, a foot bath to soak your tired tootsies, (yes, I did!) and the massage was pure bliss. My masseuse, a lovely woman named Heidi, was incredible. She ironed out the knots I didn't even know I had. The gym/fitness center itself isn't HUGE, but it's well-equipped enough to maintain your routine or help you feel less guilty about all the delicious food you're about to consume.

Now for the tiny hiccup. The "minus" bit, which is really more of a minor detail, but for my own experience, I'll include. The resort is a bit isolated, which is perfect for total immersion in nature. However, let's just say that on-site, there's limited access to stores, markets and other outlets that a person might need. So, if you're like me, and sometimes you forget a bunch of stuff, make sure to pack everything you think you could possibly need.

Food, Glorious Food! (And a Few More Observations)

Alright, let's talk grub. The restaurants are fantastic! They have a buffet in restaurant at certain times of the day. There's a fantastic Asian cuisine in restaurant, and it's really top-notch; the Western cuisine in restaurant is also excellent. I indulged in a lot of the desserts in restaurant, can't lie. They offer vegetarian options, salad in restaurant, soup in restaurant, the usual stuff. The breakfast [buffet] is something you'll look forward to - international, even! Seriously, I started my day with mountains of deliciousness. And the coffee/tea in restaurant is always on point.

I tried the Room service [24-hour] service once… and honestly, it was a bit slow. But the food was good once it arrived, so… I'll chalk that up to a busy night.

The Room: Cozy, Comfortable, and Connected (But Maybe a Little Too Connected?)

My room (a non-smoking one, obvi) was a haven of comfort. Seriously high-quality. Air conditioning and complimentary tea – which is essential after a long day of, you know, relaxing. The Wi-Fi [free] was a godsend. The Internet and Internet access – wireless made it easy to share my envious photos. The desk and laptop workspace were great, even though I mostly used them to scroll social media. Everything was clean and well-maintained (Daily housekeeping is a lifesaver!), and the blackout curtains were perfect for sleeping in late. And I loved the little touches, like the bathrobes and slippers.

However, it’s a small thing, but the hair dryer, the wall outlets, the whole kit-and-caboodle just didn't feel as high-tech as you might expect from something styled as "Infinity Pool Paradise". Still, as a plus, the soundproofing really worked.

Services and Conveniences: They've Got You Covered

They've thought of almost everything. Daily housekeeping, laundry service, and dry cleaning. Concierge service for any questions. The 24-hour front desk is reassuring. They even have a gift/souvenir shop if you need a last-minute present (or just want to treat yourself!). The car park [free of charge] is a major plus.

And for the Kids…?

I didn't bring any rugrats with me, but I did see some kids facilities and a babysitting service listed, so I'll assume they're as kid-friendly as they say!

Cleanliness and Safety: Reassuring in the New Normal

This place is clean. They're taking sanitation seriously. I noticed hand sanitizer stations everywhere, and the staff seemed diligent about hygiene. They proudly displayed their Hygiene certification, and I saw evidence that anti-viral cleaning products were being used. The staff clearly undergo Staff trained in safety protocol. I’m a clean freak in certain ways, so I was especially pleased at the physical distancing of at least 1 meter they enforce.

Things to Do (Besides Just Floating in Bliss)

Look, you're not going to be bored here. Besides the pool, the spa, and the eating, there are plenty of ways to get active. The mountains are right there! Hiking trails abound. I’d recommend a little hike – you would be really rewarded. Plus, they have a bicycle parking area! Get out there and explore the beauty.

The Verdict: Go. Just Go.

Look, I’m not usually one for hyperbole, but OMG! Infinity Pool Paradise really is pretty darn close to paradise (despite those tiny, tiny imperfections). It's the perfect blend of luxury, nature, and relaxation. It's a place to unplug, recharge, and just be.

My Honest Recommendation:

OMG! Infinity Pool Paradise gets a solid 9.5/10 from me. Go. Book it. Pack your swimsuit, your sense of adventure, and your appetite. You won't regret it.

Apartment with shared infinity pool Sankt Martin am Tennengebirge Austria

Okay, buckle up buttercup. This isn't your pristine, perfectly-planned itinerary. This is the REAL DEAL. We're talking Sankt Martin am Tennengebirge, Austria, apartment with a KILLER shared infinity pool, and a whole lotta me trying to navigate it. Let's get messy.

Title: Operation: Alpine Bliss (and Maybe Avoiding Absolute Disaster - My Austria Adventure)

The Players: Me (the perpetually optimistic, slightly clumsy traveler). Possibly a very confused spouse/friend/relative. And, of course, the majestic Austrian Alps.

Accommodation: Apartment – Shared Infinity Pool Life in Sankt Martin am Tennengebirge (fingers crossed the other guests aren’t ALL Olympic swimmers).

(Day 1: Arrival, Altitude Adjustment, and the Agony of Grocery Shopping)

• Morning (ish): Travel Day. Flights. Trains. The usual travel-induced chaos. I'm pretty sure I left my noise-canceling headphones on the airport security belt. Brilliant. Note to self: Invest in a decent travel pillow. My neck already feels like a question mark.
• Afternoon: Arrive at the apartment. Holy moly. The view. Seriously, the view. Mountains poking out of the clouds like giant, fluffy pillows. I almost cried. And then I remembered I packed the wrong kind of hiking socks. Ugh, the small things.
• Afternoon - (More): The grocery store. An Austrian supermarket. My butchered German is already failing me. I spent twenty minutes staring at the dairy aisle, completely baffled by the sheer variety of yogurt. Ended up buying something that looked vaguely like "plain" and praying. The checkout lady gave me the side-eye when I fumbled with the change. Fair enough.
• Evening: Unpack (sort of). Found the wine. Good. The balcony. Breathtaking. And. A sudden panic that I don't actually like hiking. Then I decided to let the view get some sun, I mean, I'm pretty sure it deserves it.
• Evening - (Later): The Infinity Pool. Oh. My. God. The water was colder than I expected, and my toes were curled. But the view. The absolute, glorious view. Swam a few (very slow) laps, did a few (terrible) backstrokes. Bliss. Then, I dropped my phone in the water. Luckily, I saved it. My phone is fine! My dignity, however, suffered minor damage.

(Day 2: Hiking Hell (or, at Least, a Moderate Stroll with Spectacular Views))

• Morning: Wake up to the ringing of the sun. Breakfast: My suspicious yogurt, some dubious bread, and way too much coffee. Energized, I felt like a new person!
• Morning - (Actually): THE HIKE. Planned a relatively "easy" trail. Apparently, "easy" in the Alps means "uphill for an hour and a half, then slightly less uphill." The views are spectacular. I mean, unbelievably spectacular. But my legs? They are screaming. I feel a lot like a mountain goat. A very slow, slightly wheezy mountain goat. My brain, however, felt like it was operating at 90%.
• Afternoon: Apfelstrudel. It’s the law. Found a little café in a tiny village. Ate the most amazing Apfelstrudel of my life, right as a dog came over to beg. I probably gave it some.
• Afternoon - (Later): Regroup. Back at the apartment, crashed for an hour on the couch. Definitely had a nap. Then it was time to face my biggest fear and cook. I have limited cooking experience. This might get ugly.
• Evening: Dinner Debacle. Cooked dinner. It was a semi-disaster. Slightly burnt. The food was burnt. But, I am alive. The sunset made up for everything.

(Day 3: The Downhill Slide (of Skiing! (Or, Trying To))

• Morning: Decided to try skiing. This is probably a mistake. I've skied once before, and I essentially spent the entire time on my butt. The sky was a perfect blue, and the air was crisp. The people at the ski rental shop just laughed at me, I am sure of it.
• Morning - (Actually): THE SKIING LESSON. The instructor was kind, but his patience was clearly wearing thin. I mostly fell over. I tried to glide, however, the mountain was more than happy to make me fall. I spent a lot of time on my back, looking at the sky and contemplating life choices.
• Afternoon: Gave up on skiing (for now, maybe). Went for a snowshoe walk instead. It was… peaceful. The views were incredible. I definitely saw more of the mountain face during the hike.
• Evening: More Infinity Pool time. No phone this time. Just me, the stars, and the incredible, almost overwhelming feeling of being in the right place at the right time. Maybe, just maybe, I'm starting to understand why all the mountains look the way they do.

(Day 4: Cultural Exploration and Farewell Fears)

• Morning: Visit the local town. The shops were quaint, I just didn't know what was happening… I was very scared to speak German, but at least I got some really cool stuff.
• Afternoon: More hiking! After some convincing, I went back and got to the top of the mountain. I even waved to the tourists!
• Evening: Dinner. I was so very sad that I had to leave. I got some great food, took some pictures, and went to the pool again.

(Day 5: Departure - Saying Goodbye (and Secretly Planning a Return))

• Morning: Wake up. Pack. Sigh. The end.
• Morning - (Later): Final Infinity Pool dip. Soak it all in.
• Afternoon: Travel home. Reflecting. I'm exhausted, sunburnt, slightly bruised, and utterly, completely in love with Austria.
• Evening: Start planning the next trip. Because, let's be honest, one trip to the Alps is never enough.

Final Thoughts (and Possibly a Few Tears):

This trip wasn't perfect. There were hiccups, meltdowns, and moments of pure, unadulterated awkwardness. I was tired. I was confused. I was out of my element. But, amidst all that beautiful chaos, I found something… well, I don't know what it was… I just want to go back.

The Austrian Alps are magic. And so, apparently, is a shared infinity pool. Even if I spent half the time underwater.

OMG! Infinity Pool Paradise in the Austrian Alps: FAQ (Get Ready, It's a Rollercoaster!)

So, is this place *really* as good as it looks on Instagram? Because, let's be honest, Insta lies.

Okay, deep breath. The infinity pool? Yeah, it's *insane*. Absolutely jaw-dropping. Like, I took a picture and then spent a solid half hour just staring at the actual view, kinda forgetting to, you know, *be* social and snap more selfies. The backdrop? The Alps. Freakin' Alps! It’s like something out of a movie. BUT… (and there's always a but, isn't there?) The "paradise" part? That's a tricky one. It depends on your definition. If paradise is perfectly manicured lawns and robotically polite staff, maybe not. If paradise is epic views, a pool that makes you feel like you're swimming off the edge of the world AND a healthy dose of quirky charm, then… yes. Absolutely. One million percent. I swear, the first time I saw that view, I almost cried. Not even kidding. It was just… *everything*. I may have even had a little internal freak-out about how I was actually there. It was THAT good. Though, getting the perfect Instagram pic took like, a million attempts (I looked ridiculous).

Tell me about the rooms. Are they as luxurious as the photos imply? And, like...clean?!?

Alright, the rooms. They’re…good. Really good. Nice, even. Modern, lots of wood, that whole minimalist-chic-but-still-cozy thing. My first impression was actually "Whoa, this IS fancy!" But... and again, there's a but... remember this is Austria, not Dubai. So they’re not so pristine-that-you-could-eat-off-the-floor new. There might be a tiny scuff mark on the wall, or a slightly less-than-perfect finish in the bathroom. But honestly, who cares? You're there for the view, the pool, and the overall *experience*. And, YES, they were clean. More importantly, *COMFORTABLE*. Like, the bed? I almost didn't want to get up to go swimming, which is saying something because the pool… well, you know. The balcony? The perfect spot for a pre-breakfast coffee, bundled in a fluffy robe, watching the mountains wake up. That's what you're paying for! And I forgot my adapter, which was a total panic moment until I found one in the closet (phew!)

The food! Is it worth the hype (and the price tag, probably)?

Okay, the food. This is where it actually gets a little… complicated. The breakfast buffet? Phenomenal. So many cheeses, breads, fresh fruit, you name it. Seriously, I ate enough to feed a small village. The dinners? Hit or miss, really. One night, I had the most incredible wiener schnitzel. Honestly, the best I've ever had, melt-in-your-mouth tender. The next night? Well, let's just say the sauce on my pasta was a bit… underwhelming. And the portions! Sometimes ridiculously large, sometimes… slightly less so. It's all very Austrian, though. Hearty, but not always refined. I was hungry one night and ordered a starter and a main course, and I felt like I would explode. A word to the wise: pace yourself. Plus, the wine list? Expensive. Very expensive. But the views from the dining room? Unbeatable. You can’t eat a view, but it definitely helps.

Is it kid-friendly? Because, let's be real, some "luxury" places are just… not.

Hmm, that’s a tricky one. I saw *some* kids there, but I wouldn't say it's particularly *geared* towards them. There’s no dedicated kids’ club or anything like that. The pool is amazing, but it’s not exactly a splash park. If your kids are chill and enjoy the outdoors and quiet moments, then yeah, maybe. If they're the type who need constant stimulation and a playground, then probably not. Honestly? This place feels designed for adults who want to escape the chaos of life, not add to it. I was kinda hoping it would say "Adults only please", but alas. So, weigh it up. What kind of vacation do *you* want? You'll be the best judge of whether your kids will be happy.

The spa? Is it as relaxing as it seems, or just overpriced?

Okay, the spa. Okay, look. I need to confess something. I'm not a spa person. I'm more a "hike up a mountain and then collapse in exhaustion" person. But, I went. Because everyone raved about it. And… it was actually pretty darn good. Honestly. The treatments? Yes, they were expensive. But they were also *amazing*. I got a massage that literally melted my stress away. My stiff shoulders completely chilled out! The atmosphere was super serene, and the indoor pool area was lovely, if a little busy. The sauna? Perfect. I actually *enjoyed* the spa. Maybe… maybe I'm becoming a spa person. It's a slippery slope, I tell ya. But, be warned. The price tag stung. It's definitely a "treat yourself" kind of experience. I almost cried again when I saw the price of the massage, but I'm glad I went.

What's the deal with getting there? Is it as remote/difficult as it looks on the map?

Yep, it's remote. Really remote! The drive up is… scenic. Very scenic. Winding roads, breathtaking views, potential for car sickness if you're prone to that sort of thing. I took the train to Salzburg then rented a car. The scenery was just incredible. I mean, properly *jaw-dropping*. But GPS? Can be a bit… unreliable. Sometimes it led me down goat tracks that looked suspiciously like someone's backyard. And the weather? Totally unpredictable. One minute you’re basking in sunshine, the next, you're in a blizzard. (Okay, maybe that's being dramatic, but it did rain a lot.) So, be prepared for a drive. Factor in extra time. Pack snacks. And don’t even *think* about leaving it until the last minute. And make sure your car is in good nick! I saw a tourist with a flat tire, and they looked properly devastated. I also saw some people cycling up there. Brave souls!

Any local experiences you can't miss? Aside from staring at the pool, of course.

Okay, beyond the pool? The hiking is phenomenal. Seriously, just get yourself out there. There are trails for all levels, from gentle strolls to hardcore climbs. The air is so fresh, the views are unbelievable, and you can actually *hear* silence. Pure bliss. I found a little mountain hut serving the MOST delicious apple strudel. Honestly, it was worth the entire hike just for that. (Fuel for future trips.) And the local villages? Charming. Picture-postcard perfect.
