Holiday Home Rental Description
This exceptional ski chalet rental in Selva Val Gardena places you at the foot of the majestic Dolomites, where soaring limestone peaks frame every window and world-class pistes begin just moments from your door. Chalet Cristallo Stevia Selva is a beautifully appointed alpine residence that marries traditional South Tyrolean craftsmanship with refined contemporary living, offering eight guests an immersive mountain experience across four generous bedrooms. From the warmth of the crackling fireplace to the soothing heat of the private sauna, every element of this property has been designed for indulgent relaxation after exhilarating days on the snow.
Inside Chalet Cristallo Stevia Selva
Step through the entrance hall, where a fitted wardrobe provides ample space for ski gear, coats, and boots, keeping the living areas pristine and uncluttered. A separate guest toilet on the ground floor adds immediate convenience. Two of the four bedrooms occupy this level, each furnished with a plush double bed and accompanied by a private ensuite bathroom finished in natural stone and warm wood tones. Both rooms open directly onto the garden through wide glass doors, flooding the interiors with soft Alpine light and offering an effortless connection to the surrounding landscape.
Ascend to the upper floor to discover the heart of the home: a luminous open-plan living and dining area where floor-to-ceiling windows showcase panoramic views of the Dolomite ridgeline. The living room centres on an inviting fireplace, its stone surround echoing the rugged peaks beyond, while deep sofas upholstered in natural fabrics invite long evenings of conversation. The adjacent dining area seats eight comfortably beneath a statement pendant light, creating an intimate atmosphere for candlelit suppers prepared using ingredients from the local farmers’ markets. A fully equipped modern kitchen features high-end appliances, generous counter space, and a breakfast bar, making meal preparation a pleasure rather than a chore. Two additional double bedrooms on this floor mirror the elegance of those below, each with ensuite facilities and carefully chosen furnishings that blend rustic timber with contemporary design. Throughout Chalet Cristallo Stevia Selva, wide-plank wooden floors, exposed beams, and soft ambient lighting create an atmosphere of understated mountain luxury.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
The private garden unfolds across a gentle slope, its manicured lawn bordered by native pine and larch trees that provide both shade and seclusion. A heated outdoor pool invites year-round swimming, its warm turquoise water contrasting spectacularly with snow-dusted meadows in winter or wildflower carpets in summer. Beside the pool, a sun terrace furnished with cushioned loungers offers the ideal spot for soaking in the Dolomite panorama. For post-ski recovery, the dedicated wellness area houses a sauna and steam room, while the on-site gym allows guests to maintain their fitness routine against a backdrop of mountain scenery. An outdoor dining terrace with a solid timber table seats the full group for al fresco meals, accompanied by the crisp scent of Alpine air and the distant sound of cowbells in the warmer months. Private parking ensures hassle-free arrivals and departures, particularly welcome during the busy ski season.
