Every time you visit one of the Falkensteiner Hotels with your parents, you will see Falky - your lovable, always smiling friend. You can meet him at the reception, during dinner or in Falky Land, where you can take fun photos with him. Our Falkensteiner Family Hotel Diadora is one of his favourite places - especially in summer. He has made many friends here, and you know what - this summer he wants YOU to meet them too! You'll meet Zoe, Dr Frederick, Karlie, Magnus, Sally, Otto and Professor Tiefentauch in Falkenstein's new adventure book, in the hotel's activity programme and in the new sticker booklet.

Falky's curious friend Zoey can often be found at Baby Club. This little explorer wants to learn all about different things, and she loves to share what she learns with others. She guides our littlest guests through learning methods of touch, smell and feel. When she's not at Baby Club, she lives under the surface of the sea. If you happen to see her, make sure her sea environment is clean to protect her home, the beautiful Adriatic Sea.

Where there's sport, you'll find Sally! Always ready for action, always full of energy, always there to guide you through the hotel's activity programme! She'll take you to swimming lessons or play tennis, she'll accompany you to the football or basketball court and explain the importance of spending time outdoors (especially in the sea air!). Sally will be Falky's most eager friend this summer - always on the move, enjoying sports and games.

The key to a successful holiday is keeping the children happy, and Falky wants all his little guests to be happy, which is why he has chosen Karlie as his entertainer! She brings so much fun, is full of ideas for workshops and is extremely helpful. Karlie is interested in recycling, gardening and living an eco-friendly lifestyle. She cooks waste-free with the children and shows them which local herbs they can use for seasoning. The loving animator will dance with you, go to the cinema, put on a puppet show or make beautiful handmade souvenirs. She will also show you how to use less plastic, eat sustainably, clean the beach, save water and be environmentally conscious. We are sure all the kids will love Karlie!

Our funny and clumsy, but very clever professor can of course be found in the hotel's new science lab. He will show you how to use solar energy to move objects. On a windy day, he will use the power of the wind to show you how wind farms work. He will explain to the children how the desalination process works in Punta Skala - how we irrigate all the plants in the plant with the desalinated water and in this way protect the sea. If they want, they can even visit the technical station with him! He will also talk to the children about the importance of recycling, reusing and sharing and show them fun experiments such as how to extract salt from the sea or why things float more easily on the sea than on the lake. 

Funny Otto hosts the children's show with Falky's friends, but he also invites you to the new cinema where he shows educational yet entertaining films about endangered species and the importance of marine biology. He is very adept at interactive games with the Falkys and Falkons and teaches kids of different ages a lot about marine life through play.

Dr. Frederick is here to make sure you are well. In case you feel bad or think you might get ill; he will tell you what to do. He can also show you which sea animals and plants are bad for you and which are good for you. Did you know that there are some sorts of sea algae in the Adriatic Sea, which have healing powers? You can ask dr. Frederick to show you which ones!
And what to tell you about our Magnus, the moray eel? He may not be the most popular of Falky's friends, but he has one important role - he makes sure you and your friends put everything back to place when you finish with playing. Of course, he will help you, don't worry!
