“All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them”, Walt Disney
We, Marco and I, have done just that. We gathered up all our courage in order to accept a new challenge and to pursue our dreams.
Marco and I have worked in Austria and abroad for many years, and we have seen the most exciting cities, the most beautiful beaches and the most enchanting places. We had the freedom and the opportunity to settle anywhere in the world, but we finally decided on Achenkirch in Tyrol: for us, this is the most beautiful place in the world!
We now have two wonderful children, Noah and Marie Sophie. We enjoy our family life together, we are active and love being out in the natural world. We love the surrounding mountains and the four seasons in this part of the world – all of which we can enjoy right outside our own front door. The Achensee lake has its own very special magic – its beautiful appearance, its calm, its opportunities – all this and much more about this wonderful region fascinates us.
My previous career has all been to do with catering and tourism. I see my career as a vocation. In his managerial position in an international company, my husband Marco has always focused on people. Whether they are customers, employees or guests: his passion has always been to create the right package for everyone, so as to make that person happy. We love hospitality, which is why we have always dreamt of our own little hotel.
But when would be the right time for our dreams?
The time when the opportunity arose to buy the former Hotel “Panorama” in Achenkirch, was – as they say– “not exactly the best moment“. Our children were still small, the world was in the grip of the coronavirus, inflation was the topic of the day. It was a moment in a time of uncertainty. But only at this time did we get our chance: to buy a hotel right by our own front door. So we used this opportunity, spite of the uncertainty. Because the right time for changes, the right time to realise your dreams and visions, is not sometime, it is NOW.
As Walt Disney used to say: “All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.”
We are absolutely delighted to be able to live our dream now and look forward to welcoming you as our guests soon!
Sonja & Marco Lechner
