Delicious Breakfast Choices

The breakfast offered at the café was not just satisfying but also deliciously prepared with fresh ingredients. I particularly enjoyed the egg benedict, which set the tone perfectly for a day of outdoor activities. It was a delightful way to kick off the morning before embarking on our adventures.

Cozy Family Room

The family room was spacious and designed with a long layout that ensured we didn’t feel cramped. The abundance of power outlets and dedicated reading lights was a fantastic addition for our family movie night. It truly catered to our needs as a group.

Convenient Gondola Access

Having the gondola lift just steps away from our room was a game-changer for our mountain excursions. It was incredibly convenient to get up to the slopes quickly, and the whole experience was seamless, allowing us to maximize our time in the great outdoors.
