€100m Lanserhof medical spa to open in the ‘Hamptons of Germany’
With its natural landscape and temperate climate, the German island of Sylt – described as the Hamptons of Germany – will welcome Lanserhof Sylt at the end of 2019.
Lanserhof architect Christoph Ingenhoven’s wellness architecture will be complemented by a "spectacular location" and a planned 5,000sq m (538,19sq ft) treatment area.
With an initial investment of €l00m ($106m, £85m), all of the core Lanserhof values will be embedded, including cutting-edge technology and the island’s first MRI scanner.
An individual, holistic approach and connection between natural therapy and high-tech medicine at the highest level will also be standard; as at other venues, guests will be able to choose from a range of offers from check-ups to targeted therapy.
Treating everyone from the healthy to heart patients, there will be a focus on cardiology for natural therapy, with care packages available.
“We will try to initiate cardiology rehab after heart surgery,” said medical director and Sylt resident Dr Jan Stritzke. “For this reason, a second cardiology department is also planned.”
The property will be situated on the tidal flats in List - the only place on the island where you can see the sea and the tidal flats. Guests will be able to enjoy the view while they wait for their treatments on the curved sofa at the medical check-in area.
“Sylt is ideal for a medical spa, like the Lanserhof,” continued Stritzke. “The grandiose environment in itself makes you take life at a slower pace.”
The island is the most expensive place in Europe for real estate - due to its popularity with Germans, it currently has little capacity for international visitors.
The development of Lanserhof Sylt is part of a wider expansion plan for the Lanserhof group – find out more in the latest issue of Spa Business.
