Visitor Reviews of Santa Caterina Valfurva
Alison Matthews from United Kingdom writes:
What a truly charming place. Not the largest ski area, but (Santa Caterina Valfurva) is wonderful for a short break. We stayed at the Hotel Nordik, which was extremely friendly and had the advantage of a 'wellness centre'. Short walk to the chairlift up the mountain. Sunny Valley is a lovely area and lived up to it's name for the whole time we were there.
It is a bit of a trek from Milan, but a picturesque journey.
The restaurants we visited for dinner were without exception great quality and all the local people we met couldn't have been more friendly and were so very obviously proud of their little gem of a resort. Would definitely go back for another short break.
