Host and Director
Daniel
Daniel is a very active family man who loves to spend his free time in nature, mountain biking, skiing, hiking and surfing. Dani also likes to grow his own vegetables and is always trying out new vegetarian dishes. Dani has been at Peaks Place since August 2020.
Favourite places in the region:
Hiking from the edge of the Fidaz forest to the Belmont ruins, then into the high valley of Bargis and up to the „Cathedral“ waterfall in Alp Rusna. Or picnic with the family at the barbecue area in the Rhine Gorge near Versam railway station and meditate in the forest at the lower part of the Trutg dil Flem with its countless waterfalls.
The best thing about Peaks Place is…
… the motivated team, our team spirit that shapes us, as well as the deep connection with this beautiful place.
Team Leader Réception
Sandra
Sandra has been with us in Laax for almost six years. Before coming to Peaks Place, she lived and worked in Azerbaijan and Germany for over three years. Hence her great passion for travelling and discovering the world. When Sandra is not at Peaks Place, she likes to hike through the Grisons mountains or go swimming. As a balance to the active hours in nature, Sandra has discovered crocheting for herself.

Receptionist
Brigitta
As an open and communicative power woman, Brigitta loves to laugh – even at herself. She loves the Flims Laax Falera region especially for its diversity and variety in summer and winter. And her sporting heart beats a lot faster when she can discover nature in her free time on hiking boots, mountain bike or on skis. Brigitta also knows where to pick the tastiest mushrooms – who knows, maybe she’ll reveal a spot. Brigitta has been working for our guests at Peaks Place since 2019.
Favourite places in the region:
Hochmoor-Segnesboden, Ruinaulta, Belmont Fidaz ruins and the Segnes Pass.
The best thing about Peaks Place is…
The familiar and collegial working atmosphere. And our guests – especially when we welcome them back.
Technician & Allrounder
Paul
Paul is the technician at Peaks Place and makes sure everything works as it should day and night. He grew up in Germany and has been at home in Laax since 2008. That’s why he knows where the most beautiful spots are. He loves to ride his bike to the Dutjer Alp or to Alp Nagens. In winter, Paul also spends his free days snowboarding with friends. In his free time, Paul is also interested in technology – he is interested in everything to do with multimedia and cars.
The best thing about Peaks Place is...
… is the good mood in the team and the wellness area La Senda.
Technician & Allrounder
Ivan
More than four years ago Ivan moved from warm Portugal to Switzerland and has been working at Peaks Place for two years now. The helpful technician and allrounder is great with kids and likes the contact with other people. That’s why you can always have happy conversations with Ivan. On his days off, he likes to play soccer or go swimming. In winter you can find Ivan on the board. That’s exactly why he finds Laax so great: Because you always have something to do.
Favourite places in the region:
The two villages of Flims and Laax themselves, and Lake Laax.
The best thing about Peaks Place is…
… that we, both the employees and the owners, are like one big family.
Trainee Marketing & Communication
Samira
This upbeat and cheerful marketing and communications trainee grew up in Surselva and knows the region well. At the age of 10, Samira moved to Abu Dhabi with her family for two years – which is where her enthusiasm for traveling comes from. In August 2021, Samira started her studies at the College of Higher Education for Tourism in Grisons. As a „summer person,“ like she says of herself, you won’t find Samira far from lakes or rivers during the warm days. On such days she takes it, as we say in Graubünden, «patschifig» and enjoys nature.
Favourite places in the region:
Hikes through the Rhine Gorge and trips to Lake Cauma.
The best thing about Peaks Place is…
… the team – you can feel at home here from the first moment!
Chef at s’nani
Bilo
Bilo is an always cheerful person who is originally from Germany. He previously worked in several hotels in Germany and Switzerland until he finally ended up at Peaks Place in early December 2021. As the passionate chef at s’nani, Bilo is fully committed to his work at the stove, because cooking is his greatest passion. And when he’s not cooking at s’nani, he heads to the lake for a leisurely day. Besides cooking and relaxing trips to the lake, Bilo also loves to travel around the world. He has been to Morocco five times and knows Spain like the back of his hand.
Favourite places in the region:
Lake Cauma and the village of Falera – A place where Bilo can unwind.
The best thing about Peaks Place is…
… definitely the team! There is a family-like working atmosphere and everyone is on equal level with each other.
Chef de Service at s’nani
Lara
Lara grew up in the canton of Aargau and completed an apprenticeship as a hotel manageress. Laax has become her new home. Because Lara likes the fact that so many different nationalities from all over the world come here together. She also loves the calm and the breathtaking nature of the region. Lara loves being a hostess and is particularly interested in the well-being of other people. That’s why the empathetic Aargauer loves to cook for people and do something good for them. On her days off, she enjoys swimming in the beautiful lakes of the Grisons.
Favourite places in the region:
Lake Cauma and Lake Cresta, as well as the numerous mountains – especially in winter when there is enough snow for snowboarding or skiing.
The best thing about Peaks Place is…
… that it’s like a home and Lara enjoys coming to work every day anew.
