Join us where the forest meets the mountains of Northern Italy. This retreat is intentionally crafted to reset your nervous system, go inward, and move slowly and mindfully through a week of luxury surrounded by the power of the Dolomite Mountains and the whispers of the pines. If you are looking for slow, grounding yoga, deep self-inquiry, and time with your head and your heart in an awe-inspiring setting - this is for you.

Our RISE luxe retreat brand aims to partner with world class resorts and retreat centers around the globe that offer exceptional service, memorable experiences, luxurious settings, and timeless elegance.
This Italian luxe yoga retreat blends mindful movement with healing arts, set within an eco-luxury enclave in the forests of Northern Italy. Where things that otherwise seem important lose their weight and simply fly away, disappearing into the blue sky, between the treetops and infinity. In this moment, something completely different becomes important – something that we have almost forgotten. It awakens in us when we prick up our ears and listen to the sounds of the forest. When we inhale deeply and fill our lungs with fresh air that smells of moss and early morning dew. Amid this fascinating world, one of the most unique eco hotels in South Tyrol rises out of the forest, blending harmoniously with the natural colours of the surroundings.
Set high above the South Tyrolean valley, Hotel Saltus is a design-led sanctuary immersed in forest and mountain views. This family-run retreat lives and breathes its surroundings, with chic contemporary minimalism that lets the views do the talking. Rooms are calm, expansive and built to frame the ever-changing landscape, while the food celebrates local ingredients with a refined, modern twist. Wellness is at the heart of the experience, from the serene Forest Spa to guided forest bathing sessions that encourage guests to slow down and reconnect, both with themselves and with the earth. Whether you’re here to hike through the breathtaking Dolomites or simply switch off, Saltus offers a deeply restorative stay where time stretches and allows us to lean into the art of doing nothing. I expected to return home feeling more relaxed, but I was surprised to find myself returning with a little bit of Hotel Saltus lodged in my heart forever. - Lucy Bruton, Conde Nast Traveler

forest loggia
Forest loggia —
Double - $4,650 per person
Single $5,330
The branches of the trees nearly stretch up to your balcony, inviting you to study the forest from an unusual angle and watch the leaves dance with the wind.
Choose from two single beds or one double bed in this cozy forest facing room.
The understated design of our forest loggia forms a delicate setting around the forest that displays all its intricacies, conveying a feeling of security with its sturdy, rooted trunks – visible directly in front of your window. From the balcony, watch the interplay of colours in the Dolomites on warm summer evenings, and enjoy a glass of fine wine and the company of a special person, the sound of the forest in the background, and the first stars of a magical night. Our forest loggia lets you feel the entire health-promoting effect of the forest, which was proven by a study by Roger S. Ulrich. Just looking at the trees and the forest speeds up healing processes and effectively improves our health. Linen, wool, clay, and limestone bring the feeling of nature from the outside in, promising a multi-sensory experience that is completed by a view of the forest and mountain scenery.

Choose from two single beds or one double bed in this expanded mountain facing room.
The entire window front and the balcony open up to an unobstructed, panoramic view of the wild beauty of the mountains. At any time of the day, the Dolomite panorama surprises in a new outfit: from the blue morning robe to the chalk-white beauty at noon, to the glowing sunset. In front of this imposing backdrop, our only task is to not obstruct it. Out of respect for this landscape, we have created a natural frame where loden, wool, clay, and lime blend with handcrafted details made from typical woods to create a stage of local craftsmanship. A tribute to rural traditions and the reduction to essentials.
