The most important story I will ever tell is the story I tell to myself about myself. This story creates my reality and moves my life towards my passion and purpose.

Check out my new UTAH SAVVY DIVA Blog
As you can see, I did a little bit of an experiment here in my blog featuring where I work, and I was surprised that I have increased my readership just by featuring my resort. Since I wanted to keep doing this blogging of my work, I have created a new blog just dedicated for my professional life and my passion in promoting Utah as a travel destination, especially the Wasatch County area, emphasizing on fun things to do and where to go in Heber Valley and Midway, Utah, where I live and work! So if you like my Zermatt Resort Blog, please follow instead my new UTAH SAVVY DIVA Blog at http://czarinatrinidadatwork.blogspot.com/. See you there!

My R&R Weekend at the Zermatt Resort in Midway, Utah
Last Saturday, March 21st, was the first sunniest and warmest day of the month. It was a perfect 67 degrees! I took a weekend of retreat and recreation here with a couple of my friends for a relaxing spa get-away. We started with an awesome Pancake breakfast buffet at the Schneitter's Restaurant that Saturday morning, then hiked around the block of Zermatt Resort, until we reached the top of the Homestead Crater just across the street from Zermatt.
I didn't know that I could be incognito for real to my co-workers at Zermatt just by showing up with no make up, with wavy hair and headband, and in my athletic gear! Not sure if they were still impressed with my low maintenance look during my weekend retreat (I usually look like a diva on a good day at work at Zermatt!!), but this is how I look then! This is gutsy of me to post these photos but I wasn't that bad without make up.
This was at the driveway going the hotel and conference center building at Zermatt Resort!

This was taken at our famous waterfalls hot tub in our indoor pool area. It's my first time in a two piece swim suit as well!! This is my "polished" look after my three-hour spa treatments at the Zermatt Spa. So shiny and exfoliated! (Flawless!)
To give you a good summary of our R&R experience (facial, massage, body scrub, swimming, hot tub, steam room, relaxation room, fitness center, everything is included in your spa treatment!) at our Best of State's Zermatt Resort's European Day Spa, I picked our video in Youtube for you to see how you can enjoy your own R&R at this beautiful place!

Relaxing at Zermatt Resort
The best way to relax my dad and brother is to let them play chess, whether it's in our outdoor life size chess area, or indoor in our upper lobby!
My mom just likes to relax by just looking at the beautiful view of Heber Valley. She tells me how lucky I am that I live in this country, especially in this peaceful valley, and that I work at an amazing place. This is their view from their Penthouse Suite's balcony of Hotel Der Baer.
This is Zermatt Resort's finest accommodations! Penthouse Signature Suite with two queens is ideal for family! I spoiled them for a few days here!
This is our Spa Lounge by our Wellness Center. If you have a spa appointment, this is where you will be meeting your therapist. This room is so cozy and relaxing!
This is our Wellness Center where our guests can work out during their stay. We also have a big Steam Room, another relaxation room, and individual wet/dry sauna in the male and female locker rooms!
This our Best of State Day Spa! This is my personal favorite place. Last weekend, I treated my self to a 3-hour half day package! I got an hour body scrub, an hour massage, and an hour facial! It was definitely a spa heaven on earth! I deserved it!
When you have multiple treatments, this is your in-between-treatments waiting area!! When you buy a treatment, you are also privileged to use our steam rooms, wellness center, relaxation rooms, indoor and outdoor swimming pools and hot tubs! That's why people can spend a whole day just relaxing here at Zermatt Resort while being pampered! Click here to check our Spa Menu!
The best hot tub ever with waterfalls! This is inside our indoor pool area. Our outdoor pool is connected to the indoor pool. There is also a separate hot tub outside! Every hotel guest at Zermatt Resort has a photograph at this waterfall!
This is at our Schneitter's Restaurant where we have our Best of State Sunday Brunch! We also have the best Seafood Buffet on Fridays, and the new Italian Buffet on Saturday nights. We also have a Pancake Buffet for breakfast on Saturdays! Yum!
This is at our Matty's Bistro, our comfort-food resto just right across the hotel lobby. My favorite items here are the Knife and Fork Caesar Salad with Salmon, Chicken Burger, and the Reuben!!! We have the best french fries, too!
Come and visit and taste Zermatt Resort now so you have your own story to tell! My top two highly recommended activities while at Zermatt: spend a day at our wellness center and spa, AND indulge in one or two or all of our buffets at Schneitter's Restaurant! For more info, visit our website at http://www.zermattresort.com/.
PS: I don't really understand why I have my glasses on that day in this photo! I look like a dork! But I'm sure I enjoyed my lunch!

Family Activities at Zermatt Resort
Upon arrival to Zermatt Resort, our warm and friendly Bell staffs will greet you and make sure you are well taken cared of at the Front Desk. They will even take you (and your luggage) to your room and will tell you more about Zermatt's history, amenities and interesting activities!
You don't see these kinds of vintage cars everyday at Zermatt Resort, but this one sure looked good in our driveway!
When you are at Zermatt Resort, you have to take a photo of yourself at this signage! Manila, Philippines is about 10,000 miles away from Zermatt Resort, and that's where my family came all the way from to visit me here. My dad can tell you that it's worth the trip!
This is our 18-hole executive putting golf course, which I also call our glorified mini-golf! This is a great family bonding activity. It's not as easy as you think, but it is so fun and the views from here are just breath-taking!
After doing the putting golf, my family can not resist not to stop by our Best of State Bakery called the Backerei & Eis to have a homemade gelato!
We also have a life size chess (and shuffle board) area. My dad and brother love to play chess so they spent a lot of time in this corner.
This is the most memorable of all! Zermatt Resort is Swiss-themed, so we have a Carousel! I have never seen my mom and dad so child-like until they were riding on it. They said it was their very first time ever to ride a carousel in their lives.... Sure, we don't have this in the Philippines!
This is me! I don't really get to ride this a lot... But hey, this carousel is so much fun!! I love riding the wild boar!

Zermatt Resort in Midway, Utah
I found out that people blog about Zermatt Resort for the longest time. They post photos of their activities during their stay and write about their memorable experiences to share with their readers, family and friends. Today, I browsed in our TripAdvisor and I am convinced that I should blog about this beautiful place because this is where I work everyday and I love everything about Zermatt Resort, from its wonderful location at one of America's most pristine valleys (Heber Valley) to the best hotel employees I have ever worked with in the past 14 years.
So, I am revealing half of my identity here (my professional life, yikes!) and I can't believe my gut that I waited for more than a year to do this. I wanted the world to know about my thoughts, so why not share my "other beautiful world" at the Zermatt Resort in Midway, Utah.
I posted here some photos of my family when they visited the Zermatt Resort back in the summer in 2008. I thought of posting my personal photos here rather than copying what's already in our website. And why not use real people and guests such as my Mom, Dad, my husband and brother as models?
Driveway to the hotel building! You'll see flagpoles with European flags!
Hotel lobby! You will see a lot of authentic Swiss-Bavarian sculptures and paintings! All these decors are imported from Europe!
We have a professional shot just like this in our website. Here's my own shot with my family in it!
I thought I would post several blogs about Zermatt tonight, so you'll see more above this with more posts and photos of my family bonding at Zermatt Resort!! How fun! (Now, I'm missing my family, and wishing it is summer soon! It's still snowing up here...)

This is the front of the Hotel Der Baer. A friendly, accordion-playing bronze bear statue will welcome you!
I always mention our big blue skies here in Utah, and here's a proof! This is not in Switzerland, but it definitely looks like and feel like you are in Switzerland!
