Family reunion in AlsaceFamily celebration, birthday, intimate wedding in the Vosges

The family reunion is a family tradition finding renewed resonance in our societies where families are scattered. Bringing together cousins, uncles, aunts, parents and children for a weekend or even a whole week requires a venue that keeps its promises. Gîte Gentiane in Saint-Amarin, with its 426 m² over 3 floors, accommodates up to 15 family members in genuine comfort: 7 private bedrooms, bright living room with large fireplace, panoramic terrace, complete wellness area. For larger families, Jonquille in Oderen brings together up to 24 people in a lush setting with exclusive outdoor spa.

Landmark birthdays, 50th, 60th, 70th, 80th, deserve an exceptional setting. Organising a memorable birthday at Regisland means offering the person being celebrated a weekend surrounded by their nearest and dearest in a private venue where every detail counts. The year-round heated pool (23 m²), hammam, sauna, jacuzzi and infrared cabin transform the stay into a wellness experience the whole family savours, whatever their age. The adventurous ones head off hiking in the Vosges; others relax peacefully by the water.

Regisland also welcomes intimate family weddings, those warm celebrations where the depth of the bond is preferred to grand ceremony. For couples who want to celebrate their union surrounded by their closest loved ones, in an authentic natural setting away from the stress of large reception venues, Gentiane or Jonquille provide the perfect backdrop. The fully equipped kitchen welcomes a caterer; the terraces lend themselves to an impromptu civil ceremony; the private spa becomes the newlyweds' retreat after the celebration.

Living together across several generations in a shared space requires thoughtful layout. Regisland has designed its spaces with this in mind. The additional ground-floor bedrooms (wheelchair accessible) allow seniors to move around without difficulty. The games room, equipped with billiards, pinball, table football and board games, keeps children and teenagers occupied while adults enjoy aperitifs on the terrace. The large living room table seats everyone for meals, furniture designed for 15 people at once, without relegating anyone to a small side table.

Activities around Regisland enrich your family days depending on the season. In summer: hiking to the Grand Ballon (1,424 m, 19 km away), swimming in altitude lakes, visiting the Alsace wildlife park (1 hour), Alsace wine route (30 min). In winter: alpine skiing at Markstein (33 km), cross-country skiing on the Vosges uplands, snowshoe walking in the snowy forest. In spring and autumn: mushroom picking, cycling on the Route des Crêtes, local markets and Vosges mountain farmhouses with Alsatian specialities. For families coming from Germany, the border is 30 minutes away, an invitation to an unforgettable cross-border stay.

Regisland's all-inclusive Global Package considerably simplifies the organisation for whoever is coordinating the family reunion. One price covers accommodation, end-of-stay cleaning, beds made on arrival, electricity and all utilities. No negotiating with multiple suppliers, no nasty surprises on the bill shared between cousins. From €2,275 all inclusive for Gentiane (midweek low season), that's approximately €150 per person for 15 participants and 4 nights, an unbeatable rate for a gîte of this calibre in Alsace.
