Step 1: Resort Choice: Chatel
We discussed at length the brief with our clients as they were understandably very keen to pick the perfect resort for their short break ski honeymoon. They wanted a romantic, beautiful, authentic French mountain resort and the ideal resort for their needs was Chatel.
Unspoilt, cute, “chocolate box” pretty village.
Several, small, boutique style, intimate hotels.
Wonderful in-resort and on the mountain restaurants.
Fantastic, intermediate standard slopes across the mountain.
Step 2: Accommodation Choice: Hotel Fleur de Neige***
This was undoubtedly the perfect hotel.
Family owned for several generations, the wonderful warm welcome, the attention to detail and the little extras offered by the caring, personal owners is perfect for a romantic break.
All rooms have been recently renovated and offer a fantastic mix of traditional exposed wood beams alongside contemporary facilities.
Breathtaking mountain views, perfect for a cocktail on your balcony.
Amazing in house restaurant with a wonderful a la carte menu.
Swimming pool and spa facilities.
Walking distance to the cute resort centre.
Step 3: Airport Transfers
Hanski organised an efficient, private and immediate airport transfer service so the couple were met at Geneva airport by a driver and transported to Chatel without delay maximising their time in resort.
The vehicle was a fully licenced and insured 8 seat minibuses with professional drivers guaranteeing a safe, reliable and efficient service experience.
Step 4: Ski Lessons, Lift Passes and Equipment Hire
Ski Lessons : The couple were keen to have a private lesson with an instructor for a few hours on every other day. We arranged this with one of our trusted suppliers and the lessons were a real success!
Lift Passes: These were arranged to be collected from the delegates at the hotel reception on their arrival.
Equipment Hire: The delegates were able to pre-order their equipment online, have it fitted on their arrival in resort and then delivered to the hotel. This was then simply left at the hotel on their departure from resort at the end of their stay!
Step 5: Romantic, on the mountain lunch
We chose the area in part due to its fabulous mountain restaurants so it was a pleasure to discuss the numerous, wonderful options and then book a table with a view to die for at one of the resorts best fine dining establishments.
We even arranged for a crystal blue sky weather day!
Client Feedback
Paul and Helen really are at the top of their game in the ski holiday market, our experience with Hanski was perfect as they organised a comprehensive package that exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be using them next year!
