After several years of careful renovation, Castanea has become our family’s second home – a place where we enjoy the mountains and the relaxed Valais lifestyle with our two children. We’re delighted to share this special spot with you. Located on the ground floor of Casa Castanea, VIVA is a lovingly designed, stylish two-room apartment offering around 55 m² of comfortable living space. It’s ideal for couples, solo travellers and small families looking for a relaxing stay – whether you’re planning a mountain adventure, a peaceful workation, or a quiet break with loved ones. The fully equipped kitchen includes high-quality Kuhn Rikon pans, Zwilling knives and charming vintage family silverware – everything you need to turn cooking into a shared experience. The bright and cosy living room invites you to relax, chat, laugh and simply enjoy your time together – just like at home, but with a stunning mountain backdrop. Step outside to your private balcony with direct garden access and beautiful views – perfect for your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine at sunset. VIVA is ideally located between the Mörel (Riederalp) valley station and the Betten Dorf (Bettmeralp) middle station. We recommend arriving by car, as the nearest public transport (cable cars in Betten Dorf and Mörel, and the Mörel train station) is approximately a 20-minute walk away. In winter, enjoy skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing. In summer, discover countless hiking and biking trails, as well as charming excursions to the surrounding villages. We look forward to welcoming you to VIVA – your peaceful base in the heart of the Valais mountains.
