The destination

Engel Ayurpura is a 15-room, adults-only wellness retreat that opened in November 2023 at Nova Levante, a 20-minute drive from the Alpine hub of Bolzano in the Italian Dolomites. It’s the only hotel in the wider South Tyrol region — and one of only a handful in the country — to provide authentic ayurvedic programmes that are individually tailored to each guest. Standout features of the wood-and-glass property include the saltwater infinity pool on the outdoor terrace and a secluded sauna in the forest. Access from the UK is easy with SkyAlps’s direct flight service from Gatwick to Bolzano, operating twice a week in summer and up to three times a week during the winter season.

 

The prize

SkyAlps and Engel Ayurpura have partnered to offer one reader and a guest a three-night, full-board Approaching Ayurvedic programme at Engel Ayurpura, based on two sharing a double room. As part of the programme, the winner and guest will enjoy four set ayurvedic treatments; personalised ayurvedic cuisine; and yoga and meditation sessions as per the weekly schedule. The prize includes return flights from Gatwick to Bolzano, including check-in luggage, for two. It’s subject to availability, valid until 3 September 2025 and must be booked a minimum of four weeks in advance.
