A stunning mountain lodge in an idyllic location, perfect for a luxury wellness or nature retreat

Perched at an altitude of 1,800 metres in the heart of the Dolomites, Forestis Villa is a sanctuary where architecture, nature, and wellness converge. Set on the sunny southern slopes of Plose mountain, it offers a truly private and serene alpine escape for up to 10 guests.

The property is enveloped by forest, completely shielding it from view. A 1,000-square-metre private garden surrounds the villa, providing ample space to enjoy nature’s tranquillity in complete seclusion. A spectacular 14-metre, indoor-outdoor pool forms the focal point of the garden, its glassy waters reflecting the surrounding pine forest and mountains.

In warmer weather, the garden becomes the central hub of the property, with its outdoor kitchen, barbecue, and a fresh herb garden for al fresco dining. Guests can relax by the spring water fountain or take a dip in the pool, while the poolside bar and lounge area provides a perfect spot to unwind. At the forest’s edge, the natural alpine vegetation is abundant with wild berries, ferns, mosses, and mushrooms. In winter, a private trail provides direct access to the ski slopes.

Originally constructed in 1912 as a doctor’s residence and sanatorium, the house and its surrounding landscape are protected sites. The villa has been carefully restored with a blend of historical richness, modern comforts, and sustainable luxury. Its interiors feature natural materials like spruce, pine wood, and dolomite stone, ensuring a seamless integration with its environment. Moreover, the use of natural tones throughout creates a minimalist yet warm and elegant atmosphere, perfect for relaxation.

The villa’s 400 square-metre private spa is designed for pure relaxation and indulgence. Boasting a massage room with a bathtub for two, a sauna area featuring a cold plunge pool, a hammam, and a Finnish sauna with stunning mountain views, it is the ultimate retreat for unwinding. It also offers a fitness room equipped with Technogym equipment, and, of course, the indoor-outdoor pool features with its open fireplace, poolside lounge, and bar area.

A cosy living room with a fireplace, elegant dining room, and fully-equipped kitchen with a breakfast area offer more space to relax and socialise with loved ones. The villa also features an entertainment area with a library and cinema, a sophisticated wine cellar, and a versatile exhibition and event room, ensuring there is no shortage of entertainment options.

Five beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with a king-sized bed and an en-suite bathroom, sleep up to 10 guests in comfort and style.

With its spectacular setting, cosy interiors, and unbeatable wellness facilities, Forestis Villa offers an exclusive and secluded retreat for those seeking luxurious solitude and a profound connection with nature.

About the area

Forestis Villa is located on the southern slopes of Plose mountain in the South Tyrolean Alps. This densely wooded area provides a truly secluded haven, directly opposite the imposing massifs of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The area offers crisp mountain air, a mild climate, and peaceful surroundings, making it an ideal setting for wellness retreats and reconnecting with nature throughout the year. In winter, the landscape is transformed by a pristine blanket of snow, perfect for skiing, snowshoeing, and winter hiking. Spring brings vibrant apple blossoms and wildflowers, creating a beautiful scenery. Hot summers are ideal for hiking and boating activities. Finally, autumn transforms the larch forests into a brilliant golden yellow, creating the perfect atmosphere for leisurely hikes through chestnut groves and vineyards.
