The South Tyrolean Panorama Retreat is a 4-star hotel that was inaugurated in 2018 with a very specific goal in mind: creating an environment where families can enjoy their holiday together, share activities and create lifelong memories. The room keys are shaped like wooden wrist watches, and are inscribed with the bold claim “I have got time,” reminding parents to wind down and enjoy their holiday with their family. This is the central idea of the hotel’s philosophy: children grow up too fast, and parents should enjoy their time with them as much as they can.
And this is not a difficult task at this property, where there are always new family-friendly indoor and outdoor activities to discover. Parents can work on projects with their children at the hotel’s workshop and try their hand at woodworking, painting and engraving. Indoor options also include a fancy dress area for creative role-play and cooking classes in the hotel’s kitchen.
The large outdoor areas include a playground with a sandpit, a Hobbit house and a tree hut. Another highlight is the petting zoo, where children can meet rabbits, sheep, cows, horses and donkeys, as well as friendly cats and dogs – all of which enjoy being pet and fed by children and adults alike.
The water and sauna area include a family bio-sauna, a splash pool, a children’s pool for diving and swimming lessons, an infinity indoor/outdoor pool and a water slide.
The beautiful landscapes surrounding the hotel can be enjoyed all year around. In summer, there are many family-friendly hiking, cycling and mountain biking paths around the hotel - bikes and cycling equipment can be rented nearby. And in winter, guests can go skiing, snowshoe hiking, ice-skating or sledding.

Enjoy some time alone at the Spa after an active day outdoors, or on rainy days. The spa has a steam bath, an herbal sauna (heated to 60°C with aromatic herbal scents) and a Finnish sauna. To cool down, you can use the bucket shower or the natural outdoor bathing pond. To finish, spend some time in the whirlpool, have an herbal infusion in the vital bar or just rest in the relaxation room while taking in the breath-taking views of the valley and surrounding mountains. Massages and beauty treatments can be booked additionally.
Enjoy the stunning views of the Dolomites and breath the fresh mountain air during a hike around the area. The hiking paths surrounding the hotel are extremely varied, going from steep mountain paths, fixed rope routes as well as wide family-friendly routes that are ideal for smaller legs and comfortable for young children riding on buggies. There is a hiking taxi that can take you to the starting point of some of the hiking tours and there are also guided tours organised in the area.
Leisure cyclists or experienced mountain bikers will all find a suitable track to explore the area on two wheels. Even children can join on some of the paths. The cycle path through the entire Pustertal valley is ideal for a family-friendly outing, beig mostly asphalted and quite flat.
The hotel is located very close to Plan de Corones, a broad summit at an elevation of 2,275 m, considered one of the best skiing areas in the region. It features around 30 modern gondolas and ski flits and offers slopes in various difficulty levels. There is a ski-bus that stops just a two-minute walk away from the hotel and will comfortably take you to the ski area and all its facilities.
