Ultima Collection is delighted to reveal the Grand Opening of Ultima Courchevel on Saturday 12th December 2020 for the new 2020/2021 ski season. The new ultra-luxury resort will be launched with 13 sumptuous chalets complemented by an array of exceptional beauty and wellness amenities in the most sought-after winter destination in the French Alps. The Grand Opening follows the completion in Summer 2020 of the last lot of chalets, two world-class spas, an impressive lobby, treatment rooms, a lavish restaurant and ski rooms with direct exclusive access to the slopes, for the utmost privacy away from the crowds.

Occupying a pristine slope-side position at the heart of the world's finest ski region on the heights of the Tarentaise Valley, Ultima Courchevel will offer the signature luxury services of a five-star resort within the confines of fully serviced private chalets on demand. The residences will be available for weekly bookings as well as full-season reservations.

Located in the charming neighbourhood of Belvedere, Ultima Courchevel is spread over 3,700 square metres and consists of 13 private chalets with spectacular views of the valley and the Dent du Villard summit (2,284 metres). Each chalet is home to four or five bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, sleeping eight to ten adults, ideal for families or groups of friends looking for the privacy and space to relish an ideal post-lockdown escape. Designed as a tranquil retreat in a buzzing destination, the floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies will offer guests the most spectacular views of the verdant alpine landscapes covered in immaculate white snow and fill the chalets with natural light.

Leading feature of the resort, the world-class 350 square metre wellness, beauty and fitness centre at Ultima Courchevel will be for the exclusive use of its residents and provide an oasis of pampering and indulgence. With two spas, an inside/outside swimming pool, a sauna, a hammam, a jacuzzi, and specialist treatment rooms, Ultima Spa will provide the epitome of holistic approaches to beauty and wellbeing.

Ultima Courchevel will also introduce a new restaurant and terrace with scenic views of the mountains. It will be open to non-residents and locals who want to indulge in a gourmet lunch experience with views of the ski slopes or savour a sumptuous dinner with family and friends.

Each chalet comes fully equipped and is available with all the signature Ultima on-demand luxury services including a 24-hour concierge on hand to arrange every element of the guests' stay from beginning to end, as well as housekeeping, butler, and private chef for intimate meals in the comfort and opulent setting of the chalet's private dining room. Located in one of the most accessible ski resorts in the world, guests may travel by car and train, or simply fly to Geneva or Lyon international airports and be picked up in a luxury vehicle. Private jet and helicopter transfers to Courchevel Altiport and Chambéry Aerodrome can also be organised by request for guests expecting extra-privacy and a swift journey.

Renowned for its award-winning interior design, Ultima Courchevel will bring together contemporary lines and traditional French chalet architecture in a true Ultima signature fashion. The finest materials have been meticulously selected to create a luxurious and cosy atmosphere to welcome guests in the most expansive and elegant settings. The pinewood blends in perfectly with the Italian nubuck leather. Bronze mantelpieces, chesterfield leather bed headboards and vast white-veined black marble bathrooms are subtly accentuated with colourful signature artwork.

Located in one of the most elegant and renowned skis resorts, Ultima Courchevel lies at the heart of The Three Valleys (Les Trois Vallées), one of the largest winter ski destinations in the world also including Val Thorens and Méribel. With private ski-in and ski-out access to the slopes, Ultima Courchevel brings the biggest skiing area in the world to guests' front door: 600km of meticulously maintained slopes, 166 ski lifts, and 35,000 hectares of nature.. Ski guides and instructors will be available by request, providing ski lessons and excursions for all levels, for a first alpine discovery or adrenaline-fuelled outings tumbling down the ski runs after admiring the jaw-dropping view from the Creux Noirs summit (2,700 metres). The resort's proximity to the Cime Carron glacier (3,200 metres) also makes for an extraordinary skiing expedition to the glacier all year-round, a truly unique alpine experience.
