Interval Adds Domina Resort in Tarvisio, Italy
Italian Alps Resort Joins The Quality Exchange Network
JULY 13, 2009 = Interval International, a leading global provider of vacation services, has announced the affiliation of the Domina Golf and Ski Resort in Tarvisio. Situated in the Italian Alps in the northeast region of Friuli Venezia Giulia, the resort is on the borders of Italy, Austria and Slovenia.
"This mountain resort will offer both 60 kilometers of alpine and cross country ski trails and an 18-hole golf course that overlooks the resort," said Darren Ettridge, Interval International's vice president for resorts sales and service for Europe, Middle East and Africa. "For those wanting a more relaxing experience, there will be a wellness center where our members will be able to enjoy a variety of treatments."
The resort is due to be completed in the summer of 2010 and amenities planned for the complex will consist of a restaurant, bar, spa, indoor pool and a sauna. Activities close by include horseback riding, mountain biking, climbing, tennis, fishing and paragliding. During the winter, visitors can enjoy horse-drawn sleigh rides and skiers can explore countless downhill and cross-country trails. In summer, Lake Raibl offers many water sports, including windsurfing, canoeing, rafting, hydrospeed and kayaking. The golf course has wide greens and spacious fairways and is surrounded by forest, which could result in challenging rounds for players.
"We decided to affiliate Domina Golf & Ski Tarvisio with Interval, not only to enhance the marketing tools available for our sales team at the point of sale but also because of its longstanding reputation for supporting its clients' goals," said Dr. Nicola Cighetti, managing director of Domina Vacanze. "
