Watersports apartment in Gattendorf

On the lake, near the coast or by the river — nobody who comes to Gattendorf for watersports wants a thirty-minute drive between the apartment and the jetty. Ours are positioned so you can carry a board, a wetsuit or your sailing kit down to the water in the morning. With a drying room, an outdoor shower or a mooring, depending on where you are.

Why ordinary hotels often do not work for Watersports in Gattendorf

Watersports around Gattendorf come with their own logistics: rinsing salt out of neoprene, drying sails, finding somewhere for the boards. Hotels have neither the space nor the patience for any of it. If you want to be back on the water in the evening rather than annoyed about the drive, you need an apartment near the shore — with an outdoor shower, a drying room and, ideally, room for a trailer or a roof box.

What to expect in our Watersports apartments

On the water, or a short walk from the nearest beach or lake
An outdoor shower or rinsing area for neoprene, boards and boat kit
Parking for a boat trailer or roof box at selected locations
