Water fun at the new Falkensteiner Resort Lake Garda

ATZWANGER creates complex aquatic worlds on two levels

The South Tyrolean Falkensteiner Group has built an exclusive resort in Salò, featuring private residences and a 5-star hotel – timelessly elegant. For this facility, which is open all year round, we at ATZWANGER planned and installed all the pool water technology for the 5,000 m² ‘Aquapura SPA’, which features a spacious family area on the ground floor and a roof terrace reserved for only adults.

Aquatic fun on multiple levels

“A very large, complex structure,” explains Matthias E., the project manager in charge. “There are several separately controlled plants”:

A family pool with indoor and outdoor areas, including a spray park, slides and a baby pool.
A footbath to enter the swimming area. Here, your feet are cleaned with chlorinated water.
At the heart of the hotel is a spacious relaxation pool, which is the perfect spot to sit back and relax. Adjacent to it is a small children’s pool, which parents can keep an eye on.
A rooftop pool with panoramic views of the lake in the adults-only area.
There is also a cold-water pool for cooling off after the sauna.
A sky pool at the back – the perfect Instagram spot.
And finally, there’s also a fountain in the entrance area: the water is of excellent quality and is treated in the same way as bathing water.

Sound as a big topic

Sound engineering represents a particular challenge in a project like this. “In the past, swimming pools were housed on a single level on the ground floor,” explains the expert project manager. “Nowadays, spa facilities are often spread across several floors. This raises new challenges: pipework must be routed across several floors and be perfectly planned from an acoustics perspective. Anyone staying in such luxury hotels naturally expects peace and quiet.”

Thanks to meticulous planning of the entire pool water technology and an average of three ATZWANGER collaborators on site, this challenge was also successfully met – on time, of course.
