Chalet Albona is part of the Mountain Lodge development in the popular Gastig area of St. Anton and is available to book exclusively as well as room by room.

Mountain Lodge chalets have been specially designed to Inghams' specifications and finished to a high standard. The development consists of four modern ski chalets with a shared wellness area and plunge pool.

Chalet living

The chalet style is smart and contemporary, with open-plan living and dining areas including a cosy log fire. All bedrooms are en suite and some have shared balconies and terraces to give a light and airy feel.

Plunge pool and sauna

The four Mountain Lodge chalets share an excellent wellness area with a sauna, steam room, and relaxation area. The indoor plunge pool with whirlpool jets is the perfect place to chill out after a day on the slopes.

Location

The chalet is located a 15 minute walk downhill to the resort centre. We have arranged with our ski and board hire partner that all pre-booked skis and boots can be left at the shop just next to the lifts, leaving you free to return to the chalet or stop at one of St Anton’s renowned après ski venues in the centre of the resort.

There is a free ski bus stop just 300 metres from the chalet, giving easy access to the main Galzig and Rendl lifts in less than 5 minutes. A regular night bus service is also available at minimal local cost.

Why is this an Inghams' Choice property?

Chalet catering - Our catered chalets mean there is no need to worry about a shopping trip whilst on holiday, as you will be looked after by us from arrival to departure.

Service - Our Inghams chalet hosts are a wealth of knowledge and can help you find the best runs, weather conditions, and best bars in town during your stay.

Plunge pool - This ski chalet in St Anton has great facilities including a large indoor plunge pool with whirlpool section.
