The Hotel Chalet Mirabell resort combines contemporary alpine architecture with expansive wellness facilities overlooking the Sarentino and Oetztal Alps in South Tyrol, Italy. The property features 70 south-facing rooms, suites and private villas alongside a 64,000-square-foot panoramic spa divided into family and adults-only levels.
Outdoor amenities include a natural swimming pond, landscaped lawns and multiple lounging areas, while locally sourced timber, stone and large glazed openings define the buildings. Terraced volumes follow the sloping site, integrating private balconies, recessed overhangs and uninterrupted mountain views throughout the resort.
The adults-only spa incorporates Finnish and organic herbal panorama saunas, brine baths, aromatherapy facilities, infrared heat and relaxation spaces beneath the landscaped grounds. Above, the family wellness level includes a heated indoor-outdoor pool designed to maximize views across the surrounding landscape. Seasonal experiences extend beyond the main property to Chalet Zuegg, a ski-in and ski-out lodge operating during winter, while summer and autumn activities include hiking, e-biking and alpaca trekking.
