The picturesque municipality of Strobl is situated on the eastern shore of Lake Wolfgangsee in the Salzkammergut resort area in Austria. Thanks to its natural beauty and close proximity to Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria’s summer residence in Bad Ischl, it has been a popular holiday destination since the late 1800s. Nowadays, Stobl is known as a hiker’s paradise and boasts beautiful Alpine pastures including Austria’s largest and most beautiful high plateau, the Postlam. The Wolfgangsee’s serene natural beaches are perfect for soaking up the sun and enjoying watersports during summertime. Strobl is also an amazing winter destination with its magical Christmas Markets and family-friendly slopes. The area has a wealth of cosy Airbnb vacation rentals full of Alpine charm, but this list only includes the top 10!

10. Room in old "Haus Tulpe"
Located in the same charming house as the previous listing, this is also a private room for three people. However, you could consider this the upgraded version, as this room is more spacious and has a king bed. In addition to the king-sized bed, the room is furnished with a single bed, a small table, a sink, and some storage space. The kitchen and bathroom are shared with other guests, but you could hardly tell as they are kept spotless throughout your stay!
