developments is an intimate enclave of six townhomes located
slope side on the Peaks ski run. Owners and guests will enjoy
the convenience of skiing to and from the front door, as well as
a location just a short stroll to the golf club house. In addition,
Courcheval, which borders open space, rests directly adjacent
to the Village Center, with its array of boutiques and restaurants,
the Peaks Resort and Golden Door Spa, and the gondola transit
system to the Historic Town of Telluride.
Tucked neatly into its perch on the northern edge of Turkey
Creek Mesa, the mesa that all of Mountain Village calls home,
Courcheval boasts sweeping and staggering views of the Wilson
Range and the San Sophia Ridge. Each unit has a front row
seat to those illustrious western sunsets where being bathed
in pink alpenglow is a regular occurrence. A rustic exterior of
log planking and stone, with walls of glass facing the ski run,
Courcheval is as attractive as its surrounding environment. All six
residences are bathed with excellent solar exposure and natural
light, whether cozying-up inside or relaxing on one of the private
decks/patios.
Constructed of the finest exterior materials and interior finishes
and with spacious floorplans similar to a single family residence,
Courcheval townhomes are the quintessential alpine getaway
where every attention to detail has been anticipated. Units boast
four and five bedrooms, with amenities and extras such as multiple
fireplaces, gourmet appliances, in-floor radiant heat, ski
rooms, high speed commercial elevator, two laundry facilities

CAPELLA TELLURIDE
When a dedicated developer and a
legendary hotelier meet at a storied mountain, the result is - Capella
Telluride. The resort will feature a new 148-unit luxury hotel
and residential property in the spectacularly beautiful setting of
the Town of Mountain Village, above historic Telluride, Colorado.
Telluride, known for its intimate setting and unspoiled grandeur, is
a perfect fit for the Capella brand that is committed to providing
the ultimate in personal service.
TELLURIDE, CO (November 9, 2006) – Robert Levine, president and CEO
of RAL Companies & Affiliates LLC and Horst Schulze, president
and CEO of Capella Hotels and Resorts, announced today that
Capella Hotels and Resorts has been selected to operate a new
148-unit luxury hotel and residential property in the spectacularly
beautiful setting of the Town of Mountain Village, above historic
Telluride, Colorado.
The hospitality industry has been eagerly anticipating the announcement
of the first U.S. destination for the new Capella Hotels
and Resorts brand, which has previously announced plans
for hotels and resorts in Austria, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, and
Singapore. Telluride, known for its intimate setting and unspoiled
grandeur, is a perfect fit for a brand that is committed to providing
the ultimate in personal service.
RAL Companies & Affiliates president and CEO Robert Levine
commented, “We evaluated every top-tier hotel flag, and determined
that Capella Hotels and Resorts will offer the very best
service and guest experience in the market.” “My firm built Mountain
Village’s award-winning Inn at Lost Creek and it has been my
family’s second home for the past 15 years,” Levine continued.
“So, we exercised scrupulous and exacting standards in selecting
the operator of our new hotel. We are confident that Capella
Telluride will live up to the expectations of the community, its
guests, and buyers of the condominium units at the property.”
Capella Hotels and Resorts president and CEO Horst Schulze
set benchmarks in the industry before, during his tenure as president,
COO and vice chairman of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company,
where he established renowned luxury service standards.
Schulze is convinced, however, that as existing fivestar brands
have sought to broaden their audiences, they have left open
a niche at the upper reaches of luxury travel that is going unfilled.
Capella’s uncompromising emphasis on personal service
will raise the bar in the hospitality world once again, setting an
entirely new standard.
Designed by Denver-based Ivins Design Group in conjunction
with CDA, a New York-based affiliate of RAL Companies, Capella
Telluride will consist of 100 rooms and 48 residential units in
a superb ski-in/ski-out location at the center of Telluride’s Mountain
Village. Capella’s renowned services will be available to hotel
guests and residential owners. Amenities will include a worldclass
spa, pool, fitness center, ice skating rink, restaurants, entertainment
and retail facilities and other features, with construction
scheduled for completion in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Capella Hotels and Resorts serves today’s top-tier travelers and
residential property owners and is setting a new standard in the
hospitality industry. Capella promises the unique benefits of the
finest boutique hotels, including superb architecture and interior
design, privacy, individualized service and attention to detail
– combined with the amenities and activities of the world’s great
luxury hotels and resorts. Capella, led by founder Horst Schulze,
is a brand focused on customer choice, and offers choices
that no other hotel company in the world can match. Capella is
opening world-class properties in cities and resort destinations
around the world, including: Capella Singapore; Breidenbacher
Hof, a Capella Hotel (Düsseldorf, Germany); Capella Pedregal
(Cabo San Lucas, Mexico); Capella Resort & Spa, Castlemartyr
(Ireland); Capella Resort & Spa, Dunboy Castle (Ireland); and

ELEMENT 52 An exclusive enclave of residences and townhomes.
E52 will combine the convenience of downtown location
with an array of features and services all centered on promoting
location, luxury and lifestyle. Situated at the end of Davis Street
and south of the San Miguel River it also merges with the Telluride
Trail. Mere steps from downtown this spectacular location
offers convenience to shops and restaurants while having slopeside,
ski-in/ski-out proximity to Telluride Ski Mountain via direct
private lift access to Lifts 7, 8 and the Gondola. The direct private
lift ski-in/ski-out access and the variety of terrain, makes this site
even unique to the town of Mountain Village let alone Telluride.
As a sophisticated, high-end residential development located in
downtown Telluride, Element 52 takes its name to heart. Titled
after the corresponding number on the Periodic Table for tellurium
– the element that named Telluride and was mined in the
surrounding mountains at the turn of the century – Element 52
pays homage to the region’s rich past, while celebrating its status
as a richly appointed resort community today.
But an exclusive name is just the beginning when it comes to
what the spectacular project has to offer. Comprised of 35 exquisitely
crafted luxury residences, Element 52 boasts a unique
location in downtown Telluride, abutting both the ski area base
and the San Miguel River. Units are all ski-in/ski-out and boast
equally superb proximity to shopping and dining, complimented
by upscale amenities. “This is an extraordinary project because
there isn’t anything else like it,” said Steve Catsman, managing
director of Telluride Real Estate Corporation and co-developer
of Element 52. “We’re bringing the complete resort lifestyle, one
that is more typically found in Mountain Village, right into the heart
of downtown Telluride.”
Catsman’s partners include long-time local developers, Steve
Finger, Ralph Finger and Tim Hild; the four together comprise
XYZ Land Development. The project’s architect is Tommy Hein,
also based out of Telluride, and Shaw Construction has been
selected as the contractor. Element 52 recently earned approvals
from both Telluride’s Town Council and the Historic and Architectural
Review Commission. The developers anticipate breaking
ground this coming spring. Element 52’s units will range from two- to five-bedroom homes, ranging in size from 1,200 square feet to 6,500 square feet, and
all residences include elegant finishes paired with an impressive
quality and attention to detail. Among the many amenities
Element
52 will afford its clients is a private ski lift that will provide effortless
ski-in/ski-out convenience to Lifts 7, 8 and the Gondola.
Additionally, the residences will share the exclusive Te Bar, offering
light snacks, après ski, and full bar service; private wine storage
and an extensive wine cellar; fitness center and spa; natural
stone pools, grotto fireplaces with secluded, wooded walkways;
year-round VIP concierge services; underground deeded parking
with private elevator access; year-round management; a ski valet; and a gourmet food service delivery with one of Telluride’s most esteemed restaurants.
Owners and their guests will also have direct access to the Gray
Head Wilderness Club, which features ice skating, equestrian
facilities, snowshoeing, cross-country ski trails, fly-fishing, hiking
(16 miles of hand-crafted trails), tennis, and a restored historic
private owner’s cabin/clubhouse. “Our intention is to be at the
forefront of Telluride residences, offering the absolute best in design,
finishes, amenities and service standards,” said Catsman.
“And just as importantly in a place like Telluride, Element 52 is
a veritable outdoor mecca with unparalleled and immediate access
to just about any mountain sporting activity imaginable.”
By combining Telluride’s heritage with world-class amenities in
an unsurpassed setting right at the base of Telluride’s ski area, Element 52 truly brings all elements together, creating an experience that is none other than Pure Telluride.

GRAY HEAD An exclusive enclave of 24 family ranches, 35
acres or larger, carved out of roughly 900 acres of spectacular
mesa-top wilderness high above the Telluride region. But Gray
Head is also a different kind of mountain retreat.
Thoughtfully designed as a unique and prestigious community within a community, no detail has been overlooked — from
homesites carefully placed to capture unobstructed 360˚ views,
and bathed in sunshine longer than any other site in the region,
to an historic owner’s cabin where neighbors can meet and entertain,
and the list goes on: Gray Head’s amenities parallel it
picture-perfect alpine views. An equestrian center, onsite tennis,
trout fishing pond/ice skating rink, coming soon, ski-in/out valley
parking at Element 52 in downtown Telluride, round-the-clock
concierge and caretaker services, Dial-A-Ride airport and shuttle service, and miles of private hiking, biking and equestrian trails are all part of the package.
Gray Head is defined by privacy; the community rests at the
base of the striking Mount Sneffles Wilderness area, is bordered
by the thick aspen groves of the Uncompahgre National Forest
and sits on the western side of Deep Creek Mesa. Yet homesteads
are anything but remote, located just a few miles past the
Telluride Regional Airport on Last Dollar Road and an easy 15-20
minute drive (where most traffic consists of eagles, elk and other
wildlife) from both the towns of Telluride and Mountain Village.
