Pros:

Ein Aufenthalt, der in Erinnerung bleibt.
Von der ersten Minute an spürt man hier echte Gastfreundschaft – herzlich, aufmerksam und mit einer Natürlichkeit, die heute selten geworden ist. Das gesamte Team schafft es, dass man sich nicht wie ein Gast, sondern wirklich willkommen fühlt.
Die Villa Residence Franziskus verbindet Ruhe, Stil und eine besondere Atmosphäre, in der man sofort entschleunigt. Der Ausblick, die Lage und die liebevollen Details machen den Aufenthalt besonders – ein Ort, an dem man nicht nur übernachtet, sondern wirklich ankommt.
Vielen Dank für diese wertvolle Zeit, die Herzlichkeit und die spürbare Leidenschaft, mit der hier Gastgebersein gelebt wird.

Ein Wiedersehen ist für uns keine Frage des Ob, sondern nur des Wann.

Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Recht schöne Ferienanlage mit einigen Unannehmlichkeiten.
Pros:

Das Hallenbad und die Sauna sind sehr schön, allerdings muss man über den Hof gehen, um die Anlage zu erreichen, was bei unseren Wetterverhältnissen problematisch war.
Sehr schön war auch, dass man Freikarten für den Lift von Dorf Tirol in das Zentrum von Meran bekam.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war befriedigend, aber in einem Hotel, das 850 Meter entfernt war, zu Fuß war es ,besonders mit einem Kleinkind zu weit. Im Text stand, daß ein Frühstück bereitgestellt wird. Nur dem Kleingedruckten war zu entnehmen, dass man das Ferienhaus verlassen musste, um zum Frühstück zu gelangen. Das Kleingedruckte haben wir leider erst zu spät gelesen, weil wir uns auf die im Normaltext gemachten Angaben verlassen haben.
Die Ferienwohnung war durch den langen Winter leider noch ausgekühlt, ein kleiner Radiator sollte Abhilfe bringen.
In dem Text wird der Eindruck erweckt, dass die Anlage über ein Restaurant verfügt. Auch diese Angabe korrigiert das Kleingedruckte. Also wieder Baby verladen...
Das Restaurant ist allerdings sehr gut.
Wir fanden, dass die Anlage relativ teuer war.

Die Gastfreundschaft der Betreiber hat alles übertroffen. Super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es gab sogar noch ein Besuch vom Osterhasen ;-)
Tolle Gegend für viele Aktivitäten. Restaurants, Cafés, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Entspannender Wellnessbereich. Kostenlose Nutzung des Sessellifts nach Meran (10 Gehminuten entfernt)

Cons:

Gebuchtes Frühstück im Hotel Panorama (10 Gehminuten entfernt)

Beauty, calm and exceptional facilities
Pros:

We were blown away with our stay at Villa Residence Franziskus. Philip made us welcome and the facilities are exceptional. This was our first visit to Dorf Tirol and the accommodation is perfect as a base to explore the beauty of the area. Although we didn't make use of the indoor pool and spa facilities, these were clean and calming. The outdoor pool area is excellent and provided welcomed relief from the heat in the area during late July. The area predominantly speaks German, and we were in the absolute minority of English speakers within the area. Nevertheless, Philip was able to communicate with us with good English to ensure we knew key information about the area. A great thing provided at Franziskus is the travel card which includes bus travel and use of the chair lift to and from Merano for free.

We will definitely return; next time with a little more German!

Superb
Pros:

The appartment was spotless and cool during the summer heat.

The free access to the chairlift to Merano.

We quite enjoyed the nearby Lido (community pool area) with its bar and restaurant.

Cons:

A shame that a new hotel has blocked the views to the valley from the garden and pool area.

A small suggestion would be to have hand soap available in the bathroom as well as filled salt and pepper shakers in the kitchen.

We had a really great holiday at the Villa Residence Franziskus.
Pros:

The apartment was very tidy and the kitchen well equipped.

Because the complex is not located in the center of the village, most shops are only five to ten minutes walking away, with the exception of a convenient supermarket located on the other side of town, but you'd then probably use a car for transporting your groceries anyway.

The apartment complex is closer (than the rest of town) to the chair lift going straight into the Merano city centre and this is free of charge for Franziskus guests.

The pool and lawn were very well kept and appreciated by guests too, never crowded.

Cons:

At times there is some noticeable noise from traffic on the road nearby when sitting on the terrace or balcony.
This was, however, not very disturbing as it was limited to "rush hour" in the mornings and afternoons, and did not last long anyway. During the night the environment was quiet and peaceful.
