Aman Rosa Alpina — San Cassiano, Italy

Although closed for a full Aman-level renovation until winter 2025, Rosa Alpina’s sport credentials are already legend in the Alta Badia valley. The hotel occupies the heart of San Cassiano, two minutes’ walk from the Piz Sorega gondola that pours skiers into the Sellaronda carousel; concierge teams accustomed to World-Cup racers handle everything from overnight boot drying to heli-drops on the Marmolada glacier. Summer sees the same staff pivot to cycling logistics—150 bike boxes park in a climate-controlled garage, mechanics tune gears and nutritionists prep rice-cakes for Maratona dles Dolomites starters at 05:00 sharp.

The spa will return with a 25 m lap pool, twin Finnish saunas, ice fountain and a Pilates studio banked against a larch-framed alpine lawn; Aman’s wellness blueprint promises altitude-specific oxygen therapy and Watsu hydro-stretch sessions ideal for lombardic downhill legs. Existing infrastructure already includes a Technogym hall, two treatment suites, yoga deck and a private 8 m climbing wall used by UIAGM guides for rope skills.

Gastronomy aligns performance to Michelin sparkle: when open, the three-starred St. Hubertus serves lean venison tartare, barley-risotto and zero-waste beet consommé annotated with protein/carb ratios for race-week athletes. The Wine Bar’s electrolyte mocktails pair with house-made BCAAs gummy bears, while room-service bento boxes arrive macro-labelled for midnight carb reloads. Suites—45 m² minimum—carry terraces sized for resistance-band drills, blackout curtains, humidity-controlled ski lockers and 1 Gbps Wi-Fi that beams coach feedback videos before massage tables cool.

Venice-Marco Polo and Innsbruck airports lie two hours away; heli-pads slice travel to 35 minutes, and EV chargers hum beneath the cedar-scented forecourt. When doors reopen, Aman Rosa Alpina will again blend Dolomite majesty, sport-science infrastructure and Aman’s hallmark hush, creating a launchpad for skiers, cyclists and hikers who measure luxury in both thread count and lactate-threshold headroom.
