South Tyrol is my absolute favorite tennis holiday destination. This beautiful and incredibly diverse corner of northern Italy has always been my favorite. I'm particularly fond of the area around Merano. This year, my family and I went to a very special place just before Easter. After a long time, we were finally back at the Andreus Resorts , staying at the Sonnenalm . I've been there so many times in the past. A lot has changed, yet we felt completely at ease and almost at home from the very first moment. Today, I'm taking you with me to the beautiful Passeier Valley and sharing a perfect tennis holiday day with you. Active on the tennis and golf courses, indulging in delicious food and enjoying every moment, and of course, plenty of relaxation. A little bit of everything, all in a truly beautiful way – simply a tennis holiday dream!
