French resort offers world-class water skiing

Basking stylishly within the grounds of a beautiful old farm, the ultra contemporary Jiva Hill Park Hotel, near Crozet, France enjoys 35 hectares of its own natural parkland with stunning vistas of both the Jura Mountains and the beautiful Mont Blanc range. Amongst this vast expanse of land lies a multitude of facilities just waiting to be explored; one of the most incredible features among them being the enormous Eurolac water sports centre.

In view from even the top of the Jura Mountains, this breathtaking 650 metre man-made lake has been created and designed with water sports fanatics in mind. Its beautiful mountainside setting and expert blueprint made it the perfect host for this year’s Alizée Cup, where water-ski professionals from all over the world met and competed as part of the prestigious Waterskiing World Championships!

Despite being a top of the range facility, guests of all standards are more than welcome to try their hands at wakeboarding, water-skiing, mono-skiing and even barefoot skiing! All equipment can be provided by the hotel, and instructors are of course on hand at all times. To encourage guests to try this original in-house facility, Jiva Hill Park Hotel has concocted a fantastic water-ski package for two this summer, which for just £305 includes:

• One night in a Deluxe Room with breakfast
• Four 15 minute ski/board rides
• All equipment rental (wetsuit, life jacket, skis etc)
• Fully qualified instructor

Beginners will benefit from theoretical and technical training from the instructor present. There is a wide range of equipment on offer so all different needs are met between standards. Those who are more experienced can even take advantage of Eurolac’s jumps and slalom courses designed for competition level!

And if adrenaline isn’t really your thing, accompanying persons can enjoy the remaining hotel facilities, including a luxurious Carita spa complete with sauna, hammam and swimming pool.

This offer is valid until 30th September 2008. If guests would like to extend their stay, nightly rates at Jiva Hill Park Hotel in a Deluxe Double start from £115 per person (based on 2 adults sharing).
