August 8, 2024 by Natasha Royal
There’s so much to be said for taking people out of their usual environments. Outside the office, co-workers can bond with far more ease, resulting in stronger relationships that are proven to boost business and job satisfaction. So, why not treat your company to a trip that goes well-beyond the comfort zone… on a luxury corporate ski holiday! Step away from your desks for a moment, and embrace the crisp mountain air. Celebrate successes, growth, and each other, with a stunning alpine backdrop to motivate your team.
At Ultimate Luxury Chalets, snow business is our business! Our world-class ski resorts are carefully selected, offering renowned corporate skiing experiences. For adventurous team members, why not try a spot of Heli-skiing from Chamonix? Or, you can try a mouthwatering meal in a top ski resort Michelin-starred restaurant! At the core of a luxury ski holiday in the Alps is, of course, the stunning pistes to explore. Take a leisurely cruise, following a lunchtime bite, with the most incredible views to savour for months to come.
Additionally, our luxury chalets offer a vast array of wellness facilities. This can include some of the best hot tubs, stunning swimming pools, and even dedicated massage rooms.
