Riva Privée

Where nautical luxury meets alpine altitude

Celebrating 180 years of Riva, this pop-up experience brings the elegance of the iconic yacht brand to the Dolomites.

Set amidst the snow-covered peaks of the Dolomites, Riva Privée celebrates its 180th anniversary at high altitude in the prestigious Cristallo Resort and Spa. While the Riva Privée was previously hosted as a temporary space in the renowned Stube 1872, it will make its grand return in 2026, coinciding with the reopening of the newly reimagined Mandarin Oriental Cristallo.

During its earlier iteration, the Riva Privée offered an exquisite menu crafted by Chef Marco Pinelli, blending traditional Cortina cuisine with flavors that evoke the sea. Guests were transported into the magical world of the Riva legend, surrounded by decor inspired by the timeless elegance of the iconic Riva yachts.

The reopening in 2026 promises to elevate this unique dining experience further, as the Cristallo transitions into a luxurious Mandarin Oriental property. Guests can look forward to breathtaking views, refined culinary offerings, and the unparalleled charm that has defined Riva for nearly two centuries. Stay tuned for the next chapter of this legendary collaboration in the heart of the Dolomites.
