In Merano, a precious town in South Tyrol that was already Princess Sissi’s favorite destination for its mild climate and the healing properties of its waters, the visionary Karl Schmid opened the first Italian “Beauty Farm” in 1982: Villa Eden. Ten years later, his daughter Angelika inherits its management and transforms it into one of the most exclusive Retreat Hotels in the world, where she welcomes her Guests, including important people from the world of the show business, and makes them feel at home, protected and pampered.
Among the exclusive 29 suites with a simple and elegant design and the luxuriant gardens that embrace the property releasing a feeling of calm and serenity, Guests are immersed in a paradise of wellness and beauty where they can find and learn to maintain a balance between body, mind and soul and where to start taking care of their health by adopting a virtuous lifestyle. In Eden’s Health – Longevity Med Center, a medical team working together with wellness and fitness experts are available for consulting and practical advice on personalized longevity programs, that combine balanced nutrition, physical exercise and specific medical treatments. Eden’s Lab – Longevity Gym Center and Eden’s Marvel – Longevity Spa Center are respectively the oases of vibrant energy and gentle relaxation, where you can first train and then relax body and mind, demonstrating why once again it turned out to be one of the best Luxury Spas in the world according to the Condé Nast Johansens Awards for Excellence 2023.
The philosophy of Villa Eden based on self-care and the achievement of authentic harmony is linked to the respect for nature and the connection with the surrounding environment. The subscription of a sustainability manifesto is meant to be real evidence of the constant commitment to safeguarding the planet as the first step in respecting the very well-being of each person, while the organic garden is the result of this awareness. Its fresh, high-quality products are at the basis of Healthy Gourmet Cuisine and are used by Executive Chef Marcello Corrado and his brigade to create “mindful” dishes, i.e. healthy, authentic, multi-sensory, unforgettable, so that each recipe is an explosion of nourishing flavours and a delicate emotion of conscious gastronomic pleasure.
The elegance of the technique, the artisanal approach and the authenticity of the flavours are the cornerstones of the F&B proposal of Eden’s Park, the Mindful Restaurant of Villa Eden. All dishes are characterized by an essential taste, that surprises the palate and at the same time involves heart and mind to achieve a widespread perception of well-being, especially if accompanied by the right glass of wine, carefully selected by Sommelier Elisa Gufler from the numerous labels available, in particular those of the Castello Rametz wine estate owned by the Schmid family.
“Today I’m taking care of myself” is the thought that guides every action at Villa Eden.
“Today I’m taking care of myself” is the thought of those who choose Villa Eden not to spend just a holiday, but to feel totally free to be themselves, to live at their own pace and simply feel good.
