Beyond the Threshold of Relaxation: The New Wellness Area of the Alpen Resort in Livigno
In the heart of Livigno, surrounded by alpine forests and breathtaking landscapes, the Alpen Resort stands out as a benchmark for those seeking an active yet rejuvenating holiday.
As part of the BIVIOLife network, the resort offers hospitality that seamlessly blends comfort, dynamism, and nature.
Today, the facility features a newly designed wellness area created to deliver a fully immersive sensory experience: from infinity pools to aufguss rituals and themed environments, wellness takes center stage.
THE PROJECT
The wellness & pool area of the Alpen Resort is an immersive, multisensory environment where design and functionality come together to offer well-being to every type of guest.
Spanning over 3,000 m² across two levels, it features an iconic panoramic infinity pool with transparent acrylic walls, suspended on a terrace overlooking the mountains.
Framing it all is a carefully curated wellness path that includes a panoramic sauna for aufguss rituals, a Finnish sauna made from thermo-treated wood, a Turkish bath, a Roman sauna, emotional showers, an ice waterfall, and a spacious relaxation area divided into three themes: Air, Water, and Fire.

“COLLABORATING ON THIS PROJECT WAS AN EXCITING CHALLENGE. THE CORE IDEA WAS TO CREATE A WELLNESS SPACE THAT COULD APPEAL TO A VARIETY OF AUDIENCES – ATHLETES, FAMILIES, RELAXATION ENTHUSIASTS – WITHOUT COMPROMISING ON QUALITY. THE POOL, WINNER OF THE ITALIAN POOL AWARD, IS A SYMBOL OF THIS VISION: SUSTAINABLE, TECHNICALLY ADVANCED, AND EMOTIONALLY ENGAGING. EVERY DECISION WAS CAREFULLY CALIBRATED TO OPTIMIZE ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND ENHANCE THE USER EXPERIENCE, THANKS TO CLOSE TEAMWORK AMONG DESIGNERS, COMPANIES, AND LOCAL ARTISANS.”
Diego Gabrielli, Sanae CEO
The goal was clear: to create a system of spaces that could meet diverse needs without losing its identity. The result is an environment that speaks to every guest: some seek energy, others tranquility, others connection. Our strength was a shared vision and collaboration with partners who interpreted it with precision and passion.
