"A mountainside geodesic-dome retreat at the foot of the Swiss Alps featuring 19 pods with panoramic views of the valley and surrounding peaks; most pods include a king-size bed, wood-burning stove, knotty-wood furnishings and crisp white linens. Four distinct suite pods add extras such as a private sauna or a Japanese-inspired soaking tub. Guests have access to private ski slopes and extensive hiking and snowshoe trails, and can unwind in a historic wooden chalet that houses a restaurant, fireplace and Swedish spa." - Maggie Fuller
"In this boutique âglampsiteâ most guests spend the night in energy-efficient, low-impact geodesic pods." - Le Guide MICHELIN
"For a Swiss Alps experience thatâs a step up from evenings cozied up in a traditional wood chalet, consider Whitepod. In this boutique âglampsiteâ most guests spend the night in energy-efficient, low-impact geodesic pods, all set on a serene stretch of land with 25 km of private hiking trails. A stay at Whitepod isnât exactly roughing it. All pods have electricity, are heated, hold a fully fitted bathroom, and come with a range of upscale (and sometimes quirky) features like saunas, Japanese furo baths, iPad Pros equipped with Netflix, and even indoor hammocks. While the pods are located a 15-minute walk from the reception building, breakfast can also be served in bed." - Le Guide MICHELIN
"The property's new larchwood chalets overlooking the Villars-Les Diablerets ski area are ideal for the rest of us who want the same sustainability with more comforts, like breakfast delivered by an electric Land Rover and three-bedroom standalones powered entirely by the nearby stream."
"Set at 1,400 metres above sea level, Whitepod offers accommodation in a collection of pods anchored on a wooden platform. Each pod comes with a pellet stove and an en-suite bathroom. During winter, Whitepod has its own ski slopes. Dog sledding tours in winter and dog karting in summer, paragliding, guided tours and massages can be organized on site. 25 km of signposted trails and a sauna are available all year. Whitepod includes a central chalet with a spa centre and a bar. Buffet breakfast is served here daily. Each of the pods has a floor-to-ceiling window facing the valley. There is also a small terrace at the entrance. Located in the village of Les Cerniers, the resort is a 25-minute drive off the A9 motorway to Martigny." - My Boutique Hotel (en)
