How Austria's most popular tourism brand has been shaping vacations for decades.

Over 67 years ago, Josef and Maria Falkensteiner opened a guesthouse on a small lake in South Tyrol. Over the years, the company developed into an internationally active tourism group and Austria's best-known tourism brand. The Falkensteiner Michaeler Tourism Group AG (FMTG) is still a family business today. . "We are proud of what we have created," says Erich Falkensteiner, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of FMTG.

"My parents started with the small guesthouse in South Tyrol and with FMTG we have created a structure that is unique in Europe. We build, develop, offer attractive investment opportunities and provide advice. And by advising other companies, we are also constantly learning and see trends very early on."

One trend that Falkensteiner spotted early on is the increasing demand for serviced apartments. For 20 years, the Group has been developing serviced apartments with the Premium Living product - embedded in the infrastructure of a Falkensteiner hotel. "Our Premium Living Apartments are a second home with the advantages of a Falkensteiner Hotel," says Erich Falkensteiner.

New apartments on the Falkensteiner Punta Skala peninsula in Croatia
One of the flagship projects is the Falkensteiner Resort Punta Skala in Croatia, located on a private peninsula. The resort includes two 5-star hotels, Premium Living Apartments, Luxury Villas and the Fortis Club, a state-of-the-art sports and entertainment center. The development on the Falkensteiner peninsula will continue in the fall. Under the leadership of Austrian star architect Boris Podrecca, new premium living apartments, the Aurora Residences, are being developed. A total of 88 apartments are being built in four buildings. Interested buyers can choose from four different apartment types ranging in size from 42m² to 175m². Completion is scheduled for June 2025.

Innovative crowd investment concept
Since 2017, guests and investors have also been able to invest in FMTG and its projects. The interest can be paid out either in cash or in hotel vouchers ^(*). More than half of the investors choose the vouchers, turning them from investors into Falkensteiner guests. The funds generated by the current crowdinvestment campaign will be used, among other things, to expand the Falkensteiner Premium Resort Punta Skala and the Premium Camping area.

Exclusive benefits for Ambassador Club members
FMTG has set up its own Ambassador Club for top investors. From a single investment of 70,000 euros in the 12th crowdinvestment campaign, investors can obtain the coveted Ambassador status ^(*). This status includes an invitation to an exclusive event including an executive dinner and enables a direct exchange with the owners and management of FMTG. The Ambassadors of the 12th campaign will travel to Croatia in September 2024 to the 5-star Falkensteiner Hotel & Spa Iadera - two nights' accommodation included.

These and many other projects make the company a key trendsetter in the tourism industry.
