A breath of fresh air in the traditionally twee world of ski, the soft hues of this pared-back sanctuary match well with the peaceful privacy of its surroundings. Suites designed by Jean-Michel Gathy face either an evergreen forest of cosy-looking conifers, or the quaint streets of charming San Cassiano. Favouring hushed authenticity and open slopes to the convivial winter classics of Courchevel and Val d’Isere, this is the alpine answer to alternative escapes.
No matter the season, however, days paced fast or slow are always inclined to the outdoors. The meandering hikes of the summer months become the fast-paced thrill of snow sports come winter, with the picturesque pistes of the Alta Badia ski area unfurling into the greater Dolomiti Superski.
On location, dedicated spa and wellness stays are an alluring avenue to tranquillity, with the outdoor infinity pool an effortless way to immerse yourself in the spectacular landscape. And the cherry on top of the cake has to be the Michelin stars studding the valley, so you won’t have to venture far to explore delectable dining options. Whether you’re sailing down a mountainside, kicking back to relax, or gathering around the dinner table, quality time together here is all too easy.
