Glamping in the Giettes

Amazing views in an isolated location. Recommended for anyone looking to get away from the world, hike, ski, be alone in a unique venue. Could be a fantastic location for a small team building/work event. They stock hiking/ski poles and snow shoes which were badly needed for a surprise spring snowstorm with quite some accumulation. The wellness center by the pods is hidden away but a little treasure to discover.

A unique experience

The pods were great. The inside is very cosy and warm. If you are not at least lightly trained it might be an issue to reach the facilities as it is uphill especially on snowy days. We didn’t have any problem. The space is enough for 2 and the bathroom in well kept and designed. The quality of the shower soap and shampoo was high. The view is fantastic, however very much depending from the weather

Waking up to an incredible sunrise over the Alps

We liked everything about Whitepod! The staff was nice and helpful. They paid great attention to details to make our stay unforgettable. We even got a free upgrade to the Swisspod, which we absolutely loved. Also, waking up to an incredible sunrise over the Alps is an unforgettable experience. We totally recommend it.

The location is great, just 1h from Lausanne, making it a perfect getaway place for the weekend, specially if you are into long walks in the nature. Really nice bed. And the views WOW :) they provide lamps and useful gear to reach your room.
