Sonnenalp Vail, located in the center of Colorado’s famous Vail Valley, is a place that skillfully combines European ambiance with the spectacular majesty of the Rocky Mountains. From its modest origins in Germany, this extraordinary resort has grown to become a renowned haven for tourists looking for an outstanding honeymoon experience.
Historical Roots and European Elegance:
Sonnenalp’s story begins in the early 20th century, far away from the picturesque landscapes of Vail. In Germany, a small bed and breakfast served as the initial inspiration for what would eventually become Sonnenalp. From its modest origins, the founders nurtured a dream of transplanting their legacy of European hospitality and unparalleled guest service to the United States.
In the 1960s, as Vail Ski Resort and the village surrounding it were burgeoning into the iconic destination we know today, the stars aligned for Sonnenalp to find its ideal location. Vail and Sonnenalp grew together, each contributing to the other’s legacy.
A Romantic Retreat Amidst Natural Splendor:
For honeymooners seeking a perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and natural beauty, Sonnenalp Vail delivers on all fronts. The resort’s architecture, inspired by Bavarian alpine villages, transports you to a world of Old-World charm, while its modern amenities ensure your stay is nothing short of luxurious.

Sonnenalp Vail is more than a honeymoon destination; it’s an opportunity to immerse yourselves in the rich history of European hospitality, set against the backdrop of Colorado’s natural splendor. Discover the magic of Sonnenalp, where dreams of romance and adventure come true amidst the mountains.
