Ski like a billionaire in Courchevel 1850

Courchevel 1850 is one of the most sought-after ski resorts in the world with billionaires, oligarchs and film stars fighting it out for accommodation in this small and exclusive enclave.

Flexiski are delighted to announce that staying in Courchevel 1850 just got easier. For the first time – and unique in Courchevel 1850 – flexiski is able to offer short breaks to the resort.

The Hotel Saint Louis takes visitors for long weekends, mid-week breaks, or traditional seven-night holidays. The hotel is situated opposite the Bellecôte piste with doorstep skiing, can sleep up to 85 people in a choice of ensuite rooms and offers facilities for meetings, events and conferences as well as private dining and evening entertainment.

The Saint Louis is a traditional French chalet-style building with rooms decorated in a contemporary alpine-chic fashion. The lounge area has an open-plan fire and bar called ‘1226’ (the year that Louis IX became King of France) serving cocktails, wines and champagne in a warm and relaxed atmosphere. ‘Cognac Corner’ provides a more intimate library feel with deep carpets, leather sofas and wood-panelled walls.

The hotel also has a separate top floor apartment, ‘Le Chapiteau’, which can be booked for up to 17 people and offers its guests an additional element of privacy with its own open-plan living area, lounge, library and south-facing balcony.

Prices start from £490 per person for a three-day stay including buffet breakfast, afternoon tea and cakes, pre-dinner drinks and canapés, four-course evening meal. Also included are delivery of lift passes, a ski orientation service and the organisation of ski tuition, après-ski activities, massages, beauty treatments and childcare as well as reservations at mountain and resort restaurants, if required. Flights, transfers and all extras are booked to suit the individual requirements.

And, as you may not have your own private office to organise every element of your holiday let flexiski’s event management service can do it for you. flexigold provides a UK-based personal travel consultant dedicated to plan your requirements for the holiday and provides your own personal ski event manager in the resort – think of having a personal assistant, expert skier and events manager there with you. The ski event manager will organise and supervise everything you want: from a picnic on the piste to a hot air balloon ride to building an igloo or wine tasting to jumping queues for the nightclub! Price is from £160 for a day.

Flexiski has been organising corporate ski trips for high profile clients for 20 years to the top ski resorts in Europe including Courchevel, St Anton, St Moritz, Val d’Isère and new this year, to Courmayeur and Madonna di Campiglio in Italy.
