La Villa
The connoisseur's address in Alta Badia.
In winter
La Villa keeps a lower profile than its neighbours and the regulars prefer it that way. The Gran Risa drops World Cup skiing straight into the village, and the apres is a fireplace, not a dance floor.
In summer
In summer the village turns green and quiet, with balcony flowers, forest paths toward Piz La Ila and the kind of silence that money usually fails to buy.
Stay & table
Smaller houses, longer stays. This is where you take the corner room for a week and let the valley do the talking.
Specific houses, tables and openings are covered in the Journal, with facts checked and dated.
