Andre, thanks for good post.
thoughts regarding ski-in/ski-out properties/destinations?
comments on omnia? (or matterhorn focus? i plan to try both.)

Omnia or the Matterhorn Focus...conceived by Heinz Julen (the local "superstar" artist/gallery owner

Omnia is a full-service resort set right above the village of Zermatt with direct access to town, while the Matterhorn Focus is an upscale B&B set about a 15 minute walk from town right by the Matterhorn Express cablecar station.
somehow i missed that focus doesnt have restaurant
its pool/spa look great (like omnia)
