Sonnenhotel Adler, Villanders, Italy

• Alpine abode: Set in the tranquil village of Villanders, Sonnenhotel Adler is the epitome of an alpine retreat, seamlessly blending nature and luxury. Perched at 800 metres in the Italian Alps, the hotel is enveloped in a stunning panorama of rising peaks and rolling mountains. This enchanting bolthole is perfect for those looking for a blend of relaxation and invigorating active pursuits, with a sprinkling of breathtaking mountain views.

• Self-care with a view: Your Alpine wellness journey begins at Alder Spa, where all of your self-care prayers will be answered. Reach the summit of relaxation here, perhaps dipping in and out of the four steamy saunas, or surrendering to the muscle-melting treatments on the spa’s impressive menu. Then, choose between two scenic pools, before sunbathing on the large lawn. There’s also a whirlpool - ideally positioned for Dolomite views.

• BBQ bites: The restaurant boasts everything you would expect from a wellness retreat: delicious organic fare, fresh produce, and high-quality, local products. Savour traditional South Tyrolean flavours, and then wash down gastronomic delights with a tantalising trip to the stone-walled wine cellar. And, once a week, you can enjoy a barbecue amid Dolomite views at the hotel’s very own mountain hut, set on the picturesque Villandro Alp plateau.
