action
Rena actually wanted to go on summer vacation to Kitzbühel with her father, the Danish consul in Germany . However, he is unable to work and so Rena drives with her best friend Susi and her new friend Robert. He is aristocratic, but almost broke and had actually hoped to be able to get Rena to the wedding after a love vacation together, in order to then pay off his debts with her money. When he hears that he should only be the fifth wheel on the car, he tries to thwart this: he secretly cancels the two women's rooms in Kitzbühel in the hope that at least Rena will have to spend the night with him in the tent.
The room that is now free is booked by Professor Stefan Burger, a child psychologist. He is Susi's university teacher and she secretly in love with him. Stefan has to go to Kitzbühel for work, as he is considered a candidate for the leading position of a school that is about to be opened for children who are difficult to raise. The school is to be built at Itter Castle , which the extremely wealthy American Mrs. Applewhite bought. It also determines the management of the facility.
In Kitzbühel, Rena and Susi are without a room and cheat the exultant Robert by starting to work as receptionists and chambermaids in the fully booked hotel . Susi is happy when she learns that Stefan Burger also lives in the hotel and suddenly has Mrs. Applewhite on the phone, whom Stefan wants to see at the castle within an hour - of course with his children, as otherwise he would be unsuitable for the post. But Stefan has gone to lunch and so Rena goes to the castle disguised as a child and pretends to be Stefan's daughter. Mrs. Applewhite is thrilled and decides to stay in Kitzbühel for several days. The surprised Stefan is let into the hoax, but believes that Rena is actually a child, just not his. Everything is going well, but Susi and Rena always have to be on their guard against Robert. Susi has also fallen in love with the hotel manager Thomas, who suspects that Susi's affair is behind all the secrecy about Rena, Susi and Stefan.
Shortly before the contract is signed, Mrs. Applewhite discovers Rena's suitcase with her papers. She now knows that Rena is not Stefan's daughter and that she is already 18 years old. Various attempts to persuade both of them to reveal the vertigo are thwarted by chance. Only when Stefan is supposed to sign the contract and read the passage that obliges him to “move to the castle with his daughter Rena” does he refuse. Mrs. Applewhite tells him that Rena is neither a child nor a daughter and Stefan is surprised when he learns Rena's age. Before he can provoke her to admit her age, Susi, Robert and Consul Larsen appear at Itter Castle and uncover the fraud. Stefan leaves furiously. Rena catches up with him at the train station and they both admit their love.
It comes to a happy ending: Susi and Thomas become a couple, especially since Susi has found pleasure in the hospitality industry. Mrs. Applewhite hands over the running of the planned school to Stefan, who in turn will marry Rena.

criticism
The lexicon of the international film described Greetings from Tyrol as "a dull mix of entertainment, which is hardly tastier even with five meager hits". Other critics said that films such as Liebesgrüße aus Tirol , Hochzeit am Neusiedlersee and Our great aunts “can only be described as 'stew dishes' made from hits, some landscape […] and coarse comedy. The plot is a pretext to let the usual pop stars appear. ”In contrast, the Protestant film observer likes the flick:“ Varied and for the most part well-played entertainment from indestructible Austria. Better than many of its kind. "
