No cars, no rush, just sky, sea and horizon. Take a deep breath, let go, become still. Lose yourself on the beach, disappear into the vastness, let feelings come and go like the ebb and flow of the tide. And then: pause, return home, arrive. In a house in the dunes, protected by the community. Sit, talk, be silent. Open up, trust, let yourself be carried by the sea within us.

A guiding light in stormy seas
the meeresstern
Built in 1908 on the beach at Wangerooge, surrounded by wind and waves. Named after Stella Maris, invocation of the Virgin Mary, patron saint of sailors. A convent and children's convalescent home, island hospital and mother-and-child retreat. Most recently, an educational and retreat centre. That is the history. And today? A guest house with soul, open to all who are searching. For serenity, strength and renewal. For a light in the night.
Sleeping
room for
essentials
No television, no multimedia, no standby. Just switch off – and sleep really well.
Food and Beverages
enjoy
together
Meals are served like in a large family, at fixed times, at long tables with bowls and platters. The buffet at the Stella Maris restaurant is prepared by a Michelin-starred chef and features organic, seasonal, local produce. And at Café Maria, coffee, wine and snacks are available around the clock in a cosy atmosphere.
Retreats, Seminars and Conferences
new horizons
Who am I? What do I want? What makes me happy? Away from the mainland, far from everyday life, your inner compass adjusts itself. Coaches and trainers, creative minds and spiritual leaders, mentors and supervisors help you correct your course. And inspire you to set sail for new shores.
The Chapel
in new light
What is real? What is projection? The illumination of the house chapel raises questions that lie at the heart of spirituality. A place for worship and prayer – and contemplation that transcends denominations.
Wellness
in harmony
Massages and yoga, sauna and sea. Cold and warmth, exercise and rest. Wellness is not a care product, but the art of maintaining balance. Being aware of yourself and sensing what is good for you.
