Expect a stay at Ultima Gstaad to be beyond the ordinary. Straight out of a fairy tale, the estate is a combinatio­n of bespoke experience­s and timeless charm.

NESTLED AMIDST the verdant Swiss Alps in the enchanting village of Gstaad,

Ultima Gstaad is not only a symbol of luxury hospitalit­y but also a pioneer of unparallel­ed service, exclusivit­y, and bespoke experience­s. It has establishe­d itself as a haven of both intimacy and splendour, heralding the paradigm shift of modern luxury.

The property offers not just opulent decor and lavish amenities but experience­s that foster personal growth, ensure privacy, and promote wellness. Ultima Gstaad is dedicated to keeping personalis­ed experience­s at the forefront— its boutique approach guarantees that the guests’ stay mirrors their individual tastes, preference­s, and aspiration­s.

Whether it’s through custom culinary delights made using fresh Swiss produce and internatio­nal flavours at its Restaurant & Terrace, or tailored wellness programmes, the focus is to provide an experience that resonates on a personal level. For instance, a comprehens­ive wellness journey here transcends convention­al spa offerings. The Aesthetic Clinic presents an array of treatments from detoxes and health check-ups to laser therapies and DNA tests, whereas the Ultima Spa, in collaborat­ion with Swiss Perfection—a brand renowned for its antiageing solutions—provides customised treatments according to the guests’ wellness needs.

A symbol of tranquilli­ty and exclusivit­y, the estate features private residences, suites, and distinctiv­e wooden chalets, each a pinnacle of private luxury. The steam fireplaces, lavish bathrooms, and balconies with breathtaki­ng views of the Swiss Alps are all crafted with impeccable attention to detail, cementing the property as the ultimate choice for travellers in search of an exquisite stay.

While some seek refuge in its serenity, others are drawn to Gstaad’s vibrant array of year-round offerings, including arts, music, sports, and cultural events. Moreover, Gstaad seamlessly facilitate­s access to skiing opportunit­ies and provides convenient transporta­tion to nearby ski lifts ensuring a good time for everyone—from novice skiers to seasoned profession­als. Apart from skiing and snowboardi­ng, guests can also partake in high-octane winter activities, including dog-sledding and ice skating on picturesqu­e frozen lakes. For those visiting during summer, mountain biking and rafting are among the top adventures here.

The allure of Ultima Gstaad is such that leaving will be the last thing on your mind. What’s more, Ultima Collection is launching Ultima Gstaad Promenade soon; which is set to become the largest and most luxurious private chalet in the upscale village. ultimacoll­ection.com
