Donatella and Lukas were fantastic hosts (!) -- very friendly, communicative, helpful, responsive, provided many great recommendations, and a joy to meet! The chalet was very nice, clean and comfortable, and the view (including from the outside deck) of the town below, and the mountain on the other side of the town is unbelievably beautiful. The chalet is at some elevation above the town, so walking to/from the town can be a bit of a downhill/uphill challenge; that said, my wife and I, both in our mid-60's and in good shape, walked it back and forth daily. Otherwise, it's a very short drive or bus ride back and forth, and the bus stop is an extremely short walk from the chalet. There are at least three different cable-gondola or funicular rides that are close by, going to the top of mountains, with many walking/hiking trails with world-class views. The town is very charming, and has a large pedestrian zone with many great restaurants, bars, grocery store, etc., etc. We hope to return to stay again at Donatella and Lukas' chalet - it was the perfect place for our first visit to Ortisei and the Dolomites!
