It is almost impossible to capture all of the magic of this place in an image. It is a feeling. An energy. Every corner, every inch so thoughtfully curated with such intention. From the salt room to the warm ginger tea made with local honey, my jaw has lived on the floor since we arrived. Let’s be honest, traveling with 5 kids and a very full schedule means there isn’t a ton of time for spas, but Sarah and I both took a moment to dip into this dreamy pool together and it was the best 90 seconds (literally!) ever. @myswitzerland thank you for allowing me to come camera in hand to this sweet gem tucked into this magical hillside! @thealpinagstaad

Is this even real? I woke up feeling like I was in a dream. Just three days in this magical village would make anyone want to stay forever. From the picturesque mountains tucked behind rolling hills sprinkled with chalets, to the sweet community park that was also home to wildflowers, copper and wood toys, goats, donkeys and a tortoise maze, to the free roaming cattle, you can feel the seamless blend of luxury and sustainability here in Gstaad🥀🌿

A lake with turquoise water and a picnic on wooden tables, with an entire ecosystem growing out of living walls with outdoor showers. And then, a park surrounded by wildflowers, compost bins, goats and tortoises, maintained by people with health conditions, impairments and/or learning differences. Sustainability is about so much more than just recycling plastic. It is taught through compassion. When we raise compassionate kids, they grow up caring about the trees, and the soil. Everything about this park is an example of that. What a beautiful display of community taking care of people, and people taking care of community. The way it should be, and a theme I have seen over and over again throughout every region here. From the children, to the land, to the soil and the animals. Forever changed by this experience…🇨🇭

The Alpina immediately took my breath away. I love that they have their own baker who produces bread for the exact number of guests to reduce waste, and you can even order items off their menu such as pasta and pizza made from untouched and dried bread waste from the day before. These are the small details that many don’t realize have a huge impact in hospitality. This spoke to me on a soul level. If you know me, you know I never leave food to go to waste on a table. I’m often vocal about my passion for water quality/sourcing, and I could go on and on about their water which comes directly from the mountain through the tap and is served in glass bottles that are constantly reused. Not recycled. But reused. Sourcing local is a key component of sustainability and this philosophy is seen/felt throughout many of the decisions made here. And as someone who is always so conscious of slipper waste at hotels, I found it so sweet that they provide all guests with their very own unique slippers made out of wool to avoid the use of unnecessary plastics, giving everyone the opportunity to take them home and reuse them for a lifetime. Back to that word again; dreamy. There is no plastic in the kitchen, only glass tupperware which is such a perfect representation of the thoughtfulness here. It seems inconsequential but in reality it saves thousands of pounds of plastic per year. If I could click my heels and never leave, I would do it right now. Switzerland gets dreamier by the second… ⛰️🏚️🪴 @thealpinagstaad @myswitzerland
