An experiential vacation in a tropical atmosphere, at 600 meters asl. April will see the opening of the 5-star Quellenhof See Lodge in San Martino, in Passiria in the Val Pusteria valley about 50 kilometres from Bolzano. This new project comes from the Dorfer family, owners of the Quellenhof Luxury Resorts (Passeier and Lazise).

Luxury villas in an artificial lake
The new complex will be dedicated to couples, groups of friends and families with children over 14. With a range of different solutions, one programme is BalanceLiving which promises quality living comfort in a unique design context. There are four extra luxury villas in the middle of the artificial lake each with a terrace, private pool with Jacuzzi, Finnish sauna, relaxation beds and a hammock suspended over the water.
An underwater restaurant and a spa
Five of the twenty-six suites have direct access to the lake, and there are two restaurants, one of which, the Underwater Restaurant, is in the water, and there is also a Bistro. To complete the offer there are 800 square metres of spa and 4,500 square metres of swimming lake reserved for guests only.
A tropical island in the Alps
"We wanted to create a place that could inspire people looking for a vacation with character, people who love the mountains, but are also curious to try new adventures,” says Heinrich Dorfer. So we got the idea of creating a tropical island in an Alpine context with a comfortable and pleasant microclimate.
Beauty, luxury and exclusivity
“The added value of the project is to have recreated a unique environment, with palm trees and lush vegetation. It is a true mountain vacation with a seaside air. The architectural choice is a personal plus, because over the years I have traveled a lot ,and I have collected all the curiosities I came across, creating something that belongs to me and that I can share with those who love beauty and luxury, as well as exclusivity.”
