The UNESCO World Heritage region of Lake Neusiedl is not only the largest lake in Burgenland, but also Austria's largest lake. Depending on the water level, the lake has an average surface area of 320 km² and around half of this is covered with reeds. Around 230 km² of Lake Neusiedl lies in Austria and around 90 km² in Hungary. The Austrian part therefore forms the largest lake area in Austria.
As a steppe lake, Lake Neusiedl is mainly fed by precipitation. Many countries have a water shortage due to the low rainfall - Austria is currently less affected than other European countries. Nevertheless, the consequences of climate change can already be felt at Lake Neusiedl.
From the traveler's point of view, there are no restrictions around the lake, because the landscape, the unique look and the typical Lake Neusiedl ambience are guaranteed during a stay in the Seehütte Neusiedlersee as well as on the cycling, walking and hiking trails around the lake. Vacations are not affected by the low water level. It is currently possible to go out in an electric boat, swim, surf and take the ferry without any restrictions. The You can see the current water level of Lake Neusiedl here.
A trip out onto Lake Neusiedl this week also shows that there is currently little reason to worry about there being too little water in the Bay of Rust - see a short Reel on Facebook. There is also enough water in front of our romantic lakeside chalets, which are all located directly in the water. However, we have also had the mud dredged and extracted over the winter so that there is also enough water in front of the chalets. Seehütte Neusiedlersee unrestricted bathing pleasure is guaranteed. On the right you can see a photo from the water looking towards the Neusiedlersee Sonnendeck lakeside hut, which takes its name from the sun deck that can be seen next to the pavilion on the left of the picture and which floats romantically directly above the water.
In this picture on the left you can see the Seehütte Seehaus. (as of 16. 5. 2023) The electric boat in the photo is available to you free of charge during your stay - provided, of course, that Lake Neusiedl is navigable and the boat is in working order.
This year, in addition to the comfortable lounge loungers to the right and left of the house, we have a double bed sun island at the front of the jetty to enjoy the sun in both the "Seehaus" and "Strandhaus" lake huts. The Seehütten Neusiedlersee are characterized by luxury and comfort, even if the pile dwellings are of course wooden huts in the water despite all the amenities. Nevertheless, we have equipped them with all imaginable fine things such as a kitchen, Nespresso machine, fluffy bath towels and hand towels, fridge, kettle, toaster, air conditioning, exclusive furnishings such as sofas, Egyptian cotton bedding, wooden tables, antique figurines or mosaic tables from Morocco.
An internationally inspired interior design style, as found in many boutique hotels around the world.
