DISTILLERY

In the mornings, the scent of fresh bread and coffee fills the air. As the sun reaches its peak, woodfires infuse the atmosphere with a smoky aroma, while local ingredients like fish, meats, and vegetables are prepared to perfection. In our courtyard, fragrant herbs are harvested from the botanical gardens, adding a touch of freshness. We take pride in our produce, sourced from our own farms or carefully selected from local suppliers. Our lunch and dinner menus reflect our philosophy of simple sophistication, never overdone, and focused on the experience. Our dishes are prepared with just the right amount of heat, fresh herbs or spices, a drizzle of local olive oil, and paired with the perfect wine. All in all, it's a feast for both your puku and the soul.

DAY SPA

Outside on the footpath, you catch a glimpse of the KITEA Courtyard, a secret sanctuary exclusively for guests. Designed to create connection, the courtyard is surrounded by edible gardens, fruit trees, and lush green walls. Unwind after a day on the slopes around a fire or by the petanque pit, throw local produce in the wood-fired ovens, and meet like-minded adventurers. Each afternoon, an invitation is left outside your room to join us in the courtyard, where you can create your own gourmet wood-fired pizza with the assistance of the courtyard fire master and chef. Pick a piece of fruit and take your coffee through the no-public-access gates to enjoy the peace before heading out for your adventure-filled day. At KITEA, we're bringing back the opportunity to connect with fellow travelers and fuel the best adventures.
