About this property

Big, open plan, family friendly chalet near to walks, cycling & local amenities

The chalet is located in the heart of The Dolomites Mountain UNESCO World Heritage Site, The Dolomites are regarded as being among the most attractive mountain landscapes in the world.

The house is particularly suitable as a base for cycling, walking and hiking and has been designed to accommodate families / groups of all ages.

“the nicest feature of the property is the large and comfortable living/eating/cooking area … There's plenty of space for up to 8 people to stretch out without ever feeling on top of each other. You're far enough away from the centre of La Villa for the house to be very quiet and peaceful – but close enough to walk to shops, bars and restaurants”

The open plan lay out means you have ample space for socializing and relaxing together as a family or with friends. With two bedrooms upstairs and two downstairs, and 3 well equipped bathrooms, the house also offers each of you your privacy.

There is a fully equipped laundry room with washer and dryer, as well as a huge garage space for all of your sporting items that can accommodate up to 8 bikes.

The property has 4 bedrooms / sleeps 8 comfortably.

The village has everything for your holiday requirements...including an excellent supermarket and every kind of shop from pastries to sports gear. The best thing about La Villa is its central access to a broad range of hiking locations with all the lifts and rifugios open for both summer & winter seasons.

La Villa, Alta Badia, South Tyrol, just 24kms from Brunico and less than 100kms from Bolzano.

Great accommodation with enough space for the family

We were there with the whole family. The accommodation is very nice and big. Enough space for everyone. The access to the flat via the garage is very convenient. The access to the slope is optimal. Very friendly and always approachable hosts. The owner took great care of our needs. We will be happy to come again, thank you very much.

Ok place, but not a full house

In the description on-line there is no mentioning of 'a neighbor' and only once you have paid it becomes clear you have not rented 'a house' but only a part of it (and not even the nicest side), and that you are supposed to be very considerate of the 'very private' neighbor. The place is in itself ok, and certainly the bed- and bath rooms and kitchen are fine. I do not understand the fuss about protecting the table and floor in a place you rent out most of the year, but that could be just me... Yet for summer renters please note: the terrace is a bit of a disgrace. Right on the street (you feel like you are sitting on it), no real view (unlike the pictures on the website) and all you get is two (for a place that sleeps 8!!??) uncomfortable deck-chairs and no umbrella. All in all, an ok place, but no value for money.

The perfect chalet with to spend time at the Dolomites.

The Casa Zilli offers an authentic, spacious and fully equipped house to spend your stay in the Dolomite mountains. Either during winter (a ski lift is next door) or summer (you bike right into the famous Dolomite Passo's - you walk straight into the hiking paths). The owners are most lovely and always there to help or advise. Recommended !

Fantastic house on a beautiful location in Val Badia

We (family of 4) enjoyed our stay very much. The house is beautiful, comes fully equipped, it really has everything you need, and more. The location couldn’t be any better, close to two lifts, great restaurants (a very nice one at a two minute walk from the house!) and shops. The owner was extremely helpful in answering any questions (using Whatsapp) we had during the week. All in all a great experience!

Perfect mountain retreat

The villa was perfect for our two families making the most of the beautiful Badia ski area with easy access to the stunning Sella Ronda in the heart of the Dolomites. The villa is very nicely furnished; modern and stylish with an open plan lay out that makes for a lovely, sociable and relaxing area after a hard day in the mountains. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Villa and can not fault it. We especially loved the close proximity to the ski slopes, a perfect ski-in/ski-out location.

Wanderparadies Dolomiten

Zentrale Lage, sauber, aufgeräumt, ordentlich, insgesamt gut ausgestattet. Eine automatische Kaffemaschine fehlt; zwei italienische Espressobereiter sind vorhanden. Nicht im Inserat beschrieben: 1) trotz toller Lage keine Aussicht, da hohe Bäume direkt vor dem Haus 2) es wurde das gesamte Haus zur Miete angeboten; tatsächlich ist die Dachgeschosswohnung vermietet. Es wird nach Buchung darauf hingewiesen, dass peinlichst darauf zu achten ist, den Mieter nicht zu stören, da er sehr sensibel und zurückgezogen sei. In der Umgebung sind sehr schöne Wanderungen möglich; 10 Höhenmeter weiter oben gibt es eine Gaststätte mit wunderschöner Aussicht auf den Kreuzkofel. Fazit: Insgesamt ein wenig enttäuschend, bei dem Preisniveau

Un superbe chalet familial très bien situé !

Une maison dans laquelle nous nous sommes très bien sentis tout de suite ! Décorée avec goût et raffinement, chaque détail est bien pensé et reflète la passion des propriétaires pour les lieux. La situation géographique idéale entre Cortina et Bolzano nous a permis de découvrir les Dolomites et de nous adonner à un de nos sports favoris : la randonnée. Et pour terminer, une prise en charge parfaite et personnalisée du début jusqu'à la fin des propriétaires !

A Perfect Family Summer Holiday in the Dolomites

Casa Zilli was just right right for our three generation family of six (grandparents, parents and two young teens.) The chalet has every amenity we needed including three bathrooms, a fully equipped laundry room, and a kitchen that felt like home -- also excellent wifi that worked for multiple simultaneous users. The two levels with two bedrooms up and two down ensure ensured adequate space and privacy while the open plan main floor is spacious and comfortable. (Note: It may be more challenging for a family with very young children because of the stairs and decor elements in the main room) La Villa doesn't have much of a village feel but it has everything needed including an excellent supermarket and every kind of shop from pastry to sports gear. The best thing about La Villa is its central access to a broad range of hiking locations with many lifts and refugios open for the summer season. A few more were scheduled to open July 1. Getting there is a bit of a challenge over serpentine roads (we came via Bolzano) but it is worth every kilometer. Lizzie and Ker provided everything we needed to plan and derive maximum pleasure from our trip. They couldn't control the weather but, after a long stretch of wet and cold weather with a forecast for more of the same for our week, the sun broke through 20 minutes after we arrived and never left for the entire week! So we thank them for that bonus as well.

Beautiful Property- just a few comments

This is a beautiful, comfortable home. Just have a few suggestions. Need a house number or Villa name on the house. The washer and dryer work very differently from those in the US. Please leave detailed instructions for how to use them for &#%*! Americans. The treats were lovely but a few bars of soap would be nice. These are some picky details- this truly is a wonderful home and we appreciate how responsive the owners were. Enjoyed our stay immensely!!

Fabulous location for cycling in the Dolomites!

We stayed five weeks in this wonderful house which was perfect for us! We are cyclists and the house was ideally located for us. There is a large living room with a very nice dining room, all the bathrooms are clean , modern and well equipped. We also very much appreciated the large laundry room, being there for a long time the use of a washer and dryer was very useful. The kitchen is very beautiful and well displayed. The house is close to the Main Street with the grocery shop , pharmacy , bakery etc..very nicely decorated with wooden floors and rustic look. The garage was very useful to us to put our bycicles and everything related to cycling. We rented this house because we wanted space and privacy. We really enjoyed our stay , we also appreciated being in touch with the owner who responded very quickly to any question we had. This region of Italy is absolutely magnificent and the view of the mountains are incredible. We also did some hiking which provides a different look on the mountains. This was one of our most memorable cycling trip !

About the host

Hosted by J.A. Ker Russell

Host profile image
We are The Russell family. My name is Ker D.O.B 12/10/64, married to Lizzie for what seems like an eternity, but still unbelievably happy (most of the time!). We have 3 kids, Leia, Lily and Louis. All the children have been educated in Italy and are bilingual as is my wife. I speak Italian but not like them, unfortunately, being that I spend long periods of time working in Scotland, which is where we all originate from
We all ski, walk, ride bikes and generally enjoy the outdoors (even with the event of Snapchat, Instagram, WhatsAp and all the other social media that has been invented to ruin my family's time together...however, lets not complain) We are delighted to have had the opportunity to buy and rebuild Casa Zilli. It has changed our lives. We absolutely love it, my family are always at their happiest when we are together as a unit and staying there.

Why they chose this property

Casa Zilli came on the market in 2006, ruined from the outside and completely neglected on the interior. The price was not, however reflected! We took the plunge and decided to invest in what turns out to be a life changing decision. Having spent 5yrs off and on building a large extension and completely gutting the interior and starting again, we now have what can only be described as a wonderful mountain retreat in the summer and a fabulous base for a winter chalet . The surrounding area is really quite breathtaking in all weather. The changes through the seasons are quite incredible. From warm, balmy days in summer, ideal for walking, cycling and hiking, to freezing, clear blue-sky days with fresh white virgin snow in winter, a skiers paradise. That's why we bought this property and it hasn't disappointed yet!

What makes this property unique

This property is one of only a handful of chalets in The Dolomites area that can offer sleeping accommodation for up to 10 people, comfortably! It offers communal living space situated around an open plan kitchen, living room and dining area, finished to a very high standard. The house is right next to the ski pistes in winter and during the summer months accesses all the major walks and hikes in the surrounding area either from the door or with a short drive away.
It offers mountain views from all windows in the living space to underfloor heated bathrooms
The area around the house is probably one of the most special you could expect from a World Heritage Site. Whether you choose to walk, hike, climb, Via Ferratta on the fixed cables, cycle on or off road, ski on or off piste, snow board or simply relax, we promise you won't be disappointed.
Everyone we've ever spoken to, once they've discovered La Villa in The Dolomites, just keep coming back!
