This is a no-smoking apartment, not even on the balcony.

We have owned this apartment and rented it out trouble free for over nineteen years.
The apartment is a 300m (about four minutes) walk from the centre of Maria Alm. Information on map saying 3.3 km from centre is wrong!!
This is a roof apartment with high ceiling in the lounge/dining area. Cable TV, DVD and WI-FI internet access are provided. There is a large patio door leading onto a south-facing balcony, with delightful views of the Aberg mountain area.
There are two bedrooms, one with a 'super king sized bed' and the other with full sized bunk beds. Both rooms have drawer and wardrobe space. Sheets and towels are provided in the price.
There is a separate, well equipped kitchen and a shower room which also contains the washing /drying machine.
The price for the apartment includes heating, hot water, electricity, stay tax and final cleaning.
In the basement of the apartment block are two storage rooms for boots and skis/bicycles.
A private parking space is also available next to the Haus.
These are some of the reviews from previous guests:-
'A very comfortable and well-furnished apartment equipped as the owners' holiday home. The balcony has lovely views down the valley. Internet connection was fast and reliable. Maria Alm is a charming village, surrounded by beautiful scenery and great hiking trails. There is a good supermarket too. We had high expectations and this place met them all.
Be prepared for three flights of stairs.'
'This was our best flat rental in a ski resort yet - it had everything that we needed close at hand. The flat felt more homely and loved than other flats - it has character and a personal feel about it that other flats have lacked. The beds, sofa and general living space and amenities were all extremely comfortable. The kitchen is perfectly stocked with everything that a self-catering holiday needs (for a change I didn't have to use a fork for mashed potato - a potato masher was in a drawer just like at home and there were pots and pans a plenty - I could even have baked a cake if I had wanted). The village with its bars/hotels/cafes and shops are all a short, pleasant walk away and if you are skiing the lifts and slopes are also close at hand. David and Jill added to the break by their friendly approach and were great at providing all the information that anybody could possibly need but not in an overly fussy way - they wanted us to enjoy our stay, which we did. Many thanks and when we return to Maria Alm we will certainly rebook.'
'After a successful week in this apartment last summer we have just had a 2 week break in the same apartment. We needn't have been concerned about the decision to go again, we have just returned feeling a lot fitter from all the walking and cycling we have done in the area and relaxed from the quiet and well equipped apartment. We particularly appreciated the balcony and its views, the well equipped kitchen, the wireless access and comfortable sofa. We kept discovering new walks and places of interest.'

Beautiful location

It’s worth staying here for the views alone. Maria Alm is a beautiful place and we found so much to do and see in the area. Dave and Jill were really quick to reply when we contacted them and sorted out a problem (caused by Royal Mail) really quickly. The only negative was a new hotel being built across the paddock in front of the building which led to very early hammering, not quite as relaxing as it could have been but I guess that will be over soon.

Super apartment in a lovely area

Fabulous apartment, very comfortable, well appointed with lovely views from the balcony and from the moment we booked, Dave and Jill ensured we had all the information we needed to ensure we enjoyed our stay. We discovered this region many years ago and the apartment is ideally placed to take advantage of the whole ski area, which can start at the with a t-bar at the top of the road or the ski bus stop close by. Can't recommend it enough and we are booking it again for next year!

Great apartment

The apartment is great with everything you need and the view is just lovely. It is only a 2 minute walk into town and there are plenty of little bars and restaurants to choose from. We always holiday in the off season usually in France and this is the first time that we have been somewhere that didn't feel closed. There were plenty of things open like go karting, quad biking, kayaking. The Maria Alm ski lift was also open from the middle of May and free with the visitors card that was very kindly organised for us by the owners Dave and Jill who were very helpful. My husband is a bike mechanic and they sent us information on local bike trails without us even asking which was very thoughtful. We had a great time and I would definitely recommend this apartment.

Great vacation spot

The flat is great, everything there. Good location, everything necessary can be reached by foot. Also quiet and the balcony is very big with a nice view to the mountains. The only thing we didn't know exactly before was that the two bedrooms have no door. There is a curtain and therefore, depending how good your children sleep, you have to be quiet in the living room. Other than that, everything was perfect.

net en schoon appartement ,prima locatie

we hebben 10 dagen in het appartement verbleven , was prima maar voor 4 volwassen personen wel wat klein, gelukkig was het mooi weer en konden we op het balkon eten enz. locatie was prima , alles goed aan te rijden. enige nadeel was dat de Hochkoningcard niet meer beschikbaar was. we hebben zelf de Salzburgercard aangeschaft voor 12 dagen , hier kun je ook veel liften, kloven en zwembaden mee bezoeken. was ook erg leuk. alleen de liften in Maria Alm doen niet mee met deze kaart. verder grote Spar in Saalfelden en de Billa in Maria Alm , bakkerij Bauer is ook aan te bevelen. al met al een prima vakantie gehad.

Nice stay in Maria Alm

Proper an well equipped apartment with large balcony, kitchen ( no dishwasser) 2 small bedrooms bathroom with washing machine, no drayer. The shower is very small and the hot and cold water knop are difficult to adjust to get a nice watertemperature. Advice install a thermostatic shower tap! Furter no concerns and fine location with nice view from the balcony.

What a view! and Great location.

Enjoyed having a home (not hotel) for our stay after exploring each day. The view from the 4th floor was amazing! and 3 flights of stairs burned off some calories. A great location for Salzburg, Vienna (by train), Innsbruck, FC Pinzgau women's soccer, GrossGlockner, Maria Alm, hiking, bakeries (yum) and so much more. Washer/dryer - would be nice to wash and dry separately & more instructions for this. Apartment was clean, comfy, and stocked with pots/pans, dishes, maps/brochures, games and more. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Jill & Dave Abram

Host profile image
We are a family of four with two grown up children. We enjoy both winter and summer in the village with all the facilities it provides.
Although we have taken rentals for eighteen years, the apartment is primarily our family holiday home and as such we are sure you will enjoy holidaying in this delightful area as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We found this property to be ideally located in a proper Austrian village with a real heart to the community. We never tire of the views from the balcony and enjoy the apartment as much in summer as in winter.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is close to the village, the slopes, ski hire, the bus stops and a very good restaurant whilst being located in a quiet area. South facing with great views of the Aberg slopes from the lounge and the balcony.
