Residence Sauris 811

Friuli Venezia Giulia


Overlooking the bright aqua Lago di Sauris and surrounded by dark pine forests and alpine peaks, this residence offers a handful of stylishly sparse but fabulously comfortable suites. Most have full kitchens and some come with huge whirlpools and covered balconies. The hotel's Maanja Restaurant, with stunning lake views, is also well regarded.

The owner and staff are as welcoming and relaxed as the space is glamorous. Breakfast, served in the beautiful restaurant, is a generous Friulian spread with home-made cakes and local cheese and prosciutto. The spa area has been designed with incredible attention to detail and features sense-pleasing leather walls, rare wood and mosaic tiles.
