S-Chanf, Engadin, Switzerland
Villa Flor
Sitting prettily at the end of the sun-blessed Engadin Valley is Villa Flor, a hidden guesthouse run with care and passion by former gallerist Ladina Florineth. It is near to St Moritz in the diminutive village of S-chanf, yet feels a world away; something her cult following of creatives want to keep this way.

- Winter season lasts from early December until April. Summer season starts in June and ends in late September.
How to Get There
- By air: Zurich Airport (215 km) is 4 hours by train and 3 hours by car. Alternatively Milan Malpensa (180 km) and 3 hours by car. Engadin Airport Samedan (13 km) is just around the corner, but only for private jets or chartered planes.
- Our tip is to arrive at Villa Flor by train; S-chanf has its own tiny station and the UNESCO World Heritage route from Chur to Samedan through the Albula Valley is stunning.
