While vacationing in the Dolomites, we found Cristallo Hotel Spa & Golf to not only be a world-class ski resort, but also an extraordinarily picturesque location - from the glassed-in gazebo at La Veranda restaurant, we enjoyed the grand breakfast buffet while gazing out at the stunning Tofanes. Take time for some deep relaxation at the wellness center, where you'll find an indoor pool, Finnish sauna, Turkish bath and more. At any time of the year, this makes for an ideal destination! in the evenings, no visit would be complete without an apres-dinner cocktail in the world-famous Monkey Club.

Situated in the heart of Cortina d'Ampezzo, the most exclusive Alpine resort, the Cristallo Hotel Spa & Golf provides dream-like settings caught between the past and present, surrounded by the suggestive and exciting Dolomites.

"La Veranda" restaurant, managed by Chef Luigi Sarsano, is the ideal place to discover the specialties of Italian cuisine in the typical "Stube" fashion. Dine by candlelight in the intimate "Cantuccio", or contemplate the beautiful scenery from the "Veranda". Last but not least, the gifted bar lady, Ursula Chioma, winner of several international awards, serves exclusive cocktails in the famous Cocktail Bar that won the esteemed "Bar of the Year 2005" award.
