Unique on Lake Constance

A piece of shore
that is yours alone.

No crowds, no scramble for a lounger. Our natural, untouched private beach lies sheltered in the Ried, in a gentle shallow-water zone — for coffee at sunrise and for the evening when the Alps turn pink across the lake and a glass of wine by the water rounds off the day.

  • Direct, exclusive lake access for house guests only
  • A natural, untouched beach in a sheltered shallow-water zone
  • Sunsets with a glass of wine right by the water
  • Views of Säntis and the Swiss Alps
Our apartments by the Ried

Twelve apartments, a few steps from the water.

Each individually furnished, most with their own private beach — in Friedrichshafen, right in the Eriskirch Ried nature reserve.

Away from the Ried, too, you will find a home away from home with us — from an apartment with castle views to a large holiday house for the whole family.

  • Birdwatching — storks, kingfishers and migratory birds

Felix & Selina with Isabella & Julian
Your hosts

We are the Lutz family.

We are Felix and Selina Lutz, with our children Isabella and Julian.

We live in Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance – the place where so many people spend their holidays. For us, though, this region is more than a pretty spot on the map. It is our home. This is where our children grow up, where we work, where we spend time with family and friends. Lake Constance is part of our everyday life: walks by the water, day trips, good food, the closeness of the mountains and that special feeling when you come home and see the lake.

Family comes first for us. After that come health, togetherness and the wish to build something lasting, step by step. That is exactly how we see our work with holiday apartments: we do not want to offer anonymous accommodation, but a place where guests can arrive and truly feel at home.

Having children ourselves, we know how important it is for a stay to be effortless. You do not want to search around, ask questions or be annoyed by little things. An apartment should be clean, well prepared and practical. It should simply work. And it should feel good.

We have worked with property for many years and know what matters: a good location, clear processes, well-kept spaces and reliable contacts. It is important to us that our guests feel there are real people behind these apartments. People who care, who think ahead and who want your stay to be a success.

Our holiday apartments are meant for guests who want to experience Lake Constance – whether as a family, a couple, business travellers or for a longer break. We would be delighted if our apartments became a small part of a wonderful time here by the lake.
