If you are looking forward to snowy vacations after the closure of the ski resorts in 2021, the new magazine Luxus + Mag autumn-winter has put together a special guide for you: “Escape to the Mountain”
Luxury real estate, addresses, shopping… follow our special mountain guide to spend excellent stays surrounded by snow.
Luxury real estate
Despite the pandemic, the demand for luxury real estate is not drying up, continuing the trend observed over the past 2 years. Properties located near French resorts such as Courchevel, Megève, or Val d’Isère are attracting more and more investors. And this trend is confirmed in our Swiss neighbors, as for example in Gstaad. According to a study by seloger.com, 30% of French people consider that luxury real estate remains a safer value than before the crisis and 64% of respondents believe that the time is right to invest in a prestigious property. The first quarter of 2021 was “the strongest in 20 years” with nearly 400 million euros of property sold, according to Sotheby’s International Realty France.
David Prétot, head of Barnes Mont-Blanc explains to Luxus + Mag: “With the crisis, many owners needed a place in the countryside where to spend the holidays in the best way. (…) they found in the mountains the peace and isolation necessary for the best possible conditions for remote work.”
Our good addresses

Finally, to equip yourself in the mountains and protect yourself from the cold, there is nothing like a shopping session before packing your bags. And what could be more fashionable than a Fendi suit, a Miu Miu quilted jacket and Gucci après ski boots? To complete the look, the Camille Fournet calf leather holster, from their “Mobility” collection, will accompany you everywhere, even on the slopes, to ski with style.
