Why Visit Austria

Austria is where apres ski was born, and it’s still as welcoming as ever! But it’s the skiing that is the real star of the show in Austria. Staying in a luxury ski chalet in resorts like St Anton, Lech, Zurs and St Christoph gives easy access to the world-class Arlberg ski area. This is a huge and well-linked ski zone with a good range of skiing for all abilities and a great selection of mountain restaurants.

Simply put Austria has it all and more, from quaint picturesque villages to exclusive resorts and brilliant après, to skiing for all abilities, plenty of summer activities as well as a warm welcome that you just cant beat. Whatever you are looking for on a luxury chalet holiday, you are likely to find it in Austria.

Firefly Collection has a fantastic range of luxury ski chalets in Austria, from cosy alpine retreats to highly glamorous ski chalets such as Chalet N in Lech, offering state-of-the-art technology and heavenly spa facilities.

For non-skiers most of the Austrian ski resorts offer plenty to do for those not rushing down the pistes. St Anton has charming pedestrian main street lined by boutiques, bars and restaurants. Spas are also high on the agenda at many of our luxury ski chalets for those who want to simply relax.

With such a varied landscape, Austria offers plenty to do during the summer months. White water rafting, canonying and cycling are just a few of the activities on offer, when staying in one of Firefly Collection’s luxury summer ski chalet rentals.

What we love about Austria

We love the fantastic hospitality and warm welcome you receive in Austria.

Best Time to Visit Austria

Austria offers something for everyone to enjoy on a luxury chalet holiday all year round.

The ski season varies depending on the height of resort, but can run from the beginning of December until the end of April. Lech in particular benefits from a fantastic snow record.

The best time to stay in one of our summer chalet rentals in The Alps is from April to October, with temperatures peaking in July and August.

The Skiing

During the winter months, the world class skiing on offer pulls in the crowds to Austria. The Arlberg ski area (one of the largest linked areas in the world) is characterised by high sunny bowls and varied terrain. Home to the popular resorts of St.Anton, Lech, Zurs, Stuben and St.Christoph the slopes offer diverse runs for beginners and the more advanced. There are 200km of off-piste to enjoy on a luxury ski holiday here as well as deep snow ski runs and racing circuits.

Perhaps Austria’s most famous ski resort, St.Anton is as well known for its lively après as it is for it’s skiing. Party until the early hours in bars such as ‘The Mooserwirt’, or for a quieter night head to a cosy bar in St.Christoph.

Lech and Zurs nearby offer their own traditional charm; with good links to St.Anton they offer a family friendly atmosphere alongside an array of upmarket luxury ski chalets and hotels.

Best Places to Eat and Drink

The Austrians take their food and drink very seriously. Often traditional in style Austrian cuisine lends itself to hearty meals to warm you up after a day on the slopes, such as the local dish of Goulash. Offering great value, the service and hospitality in Austria is some of the best in the Alps. Stay in one of Firefly Collection’s luxury ski chalets with private chef and be greeted with delicious gourmet meals each evening, making the most of seasonal ingredients.

Renowned for their cakes and pastries, a luxury ski holiday in Austria would not be complete a slice of warm apple strudel or their famous Sacher Torte, both of which can be found in most cafes and restaurants. There are plenty of mountainside restaurants to stop for lunch, particularly in Kitzbuhel; the Panorama Alm offers plenty of alpine charm, an outdoor terrace and robust meat dishes.
