High in the pristine Grossarl valley, Moar Gut Family Nature Resort has long been a haven for families seeking both comfort and connection with nature. Its latest innovation, the Lillee Baby Spa, marks a milestone in luxury family hospitality. Here, wellness begins at the very start of life. Infants as young as two weeks old are welcomed into a calm, medically supervised environment, where treatments are designed to support early development while giving parents guidance and confidence for home care.

Since opening, the spa has catered to babies weighing over 3kg, establishing a new benchmark for infant-focused luxury. By combining therapeutic expertise with the serenity of the Alps, the facility demonstrates that wellness for the very youngest can be both sophisticated and comforting.

Luxury Tailored to Every Generation

Safety and efficacy are at the heart of every spa treatment. Christina Schöninger, a paediatric nurse and cranio-sacral therapist, supervises all sessions, ensuring that each infant receives optimal therapeutic benefit in complete safety.

The spa itself is designed with families in mind. Purpose-built baby baths, dedicated massage and yoga areas, private breastfeeding spaces, and comprehensive changing facilities provide seamless comfort. Every detail from the soft lighting to the carefully selected materials, reflects an understanding of both infant needs and parental peace of mind.

Waterborne Wellness

One of the spa’s signature treatments, Baby Floating, allows infants to experience gentle buoyancy in tubs filled with pure mountain spring water. The weightless sensation promotes motor skill development, relieves tension, and encourages better sleep patterns. By softly stimulating the autonomic nervous system, the therapy mirrors conditions in the womb, creating a calming, restorative experience that nurtures the body and mind.

Parents are encouraged to participate, gently supporting their child in the water, strengthening the bond between parent and baby while learning techniques that can be applied at home.

Infant Massage and Gentle Therapy

The spa’s Baby Massage Instruction programme teaches parents professional massage techniques that improve digestion, stimulate metabolism, strengthen the immune system, and alleviate common abdominal discomfort. Designed for babies from three weeks to crawling age, the sessions also foster trust and intimacy, enhancing the emotional connection between parent and child.

Basal Stimulation, another cornerstone of the Lillee Baby Spa, combines gentle massage with elements of baby yoga. The treatment is particularly effective for restless infants, promoting relaxation, coordination, and overall wellbeing. By guiding subtle movements and stretches, therapists help babies develop motor skills while parents gain practical tools for daily care.

Alpine Adventures for the Family

The Lillee Baby Spa is part of Moar Gut’s broader philosophy of multigenerational luxury. The resort features 46 spacious family suites and two double rooms, allowing families to enjoy privacy while remaining connected.

Beyond the spa, children can explore the resort’s organic farm, small animal enclosure, and riding stable, encouraging interaction with nature and animals in a safe, playful setting. Parents can relax knowing that every activity, from horseback riding to farm visits, is designed to nurture curiosity and development.

The resort’s approach ensures that wellness continues long after the spa session ends, whether through mindful play, outdoor exploration, or learned techniques for at-home care is designed to support growth, bonding, and wellbeing.
