First trip advisor review of the season.

The first guest of the season have returned home and we are pleased to have recieved our first review of the season.

This link takes you to the review and our past comments.

Just back from another fantastic trip to the Christiania. The atmospher is second to none, it is in a fantastic location on the slopes and the management cannot do enough to make sure your trip is simply brilliant. Les Gets was shut one day so as early as 8.30am mini bus was ready to take us to Avoriaz only twenty minutes away. Apres Ski tea is fantastic, bar fun and then huge well cooked dinner. Food is of a high quality far better than two star would suggest. Sauna and Hot Tubs add to the apres ski entertainment. Above all else the fun atmospher is hard to beat and whatever the weather i feel guests are bound to have a fantastic time and great value for money.

Get fit for skiing - Week 10

Well now its December and the staff are all set to arrive at the hotel Christiania in the next few days the count down to the start of the ski season 2011/12 is just about complete, we have in association with Steve Bonthrone, a personal trainer from Perth put together a series of 10 exercises to help get you fit to get the most out of your skiing. If you search for Fitness on this blog you can find the other nine of the 10 exercises that have already been published. We trust you have enjoyed the exercises and would welcome any feedback here or on our facebook page.


For the final exercises Steve again states "that we return to more advanced core work. If you need any help or assistance with this or any of the other exercises in the programme please contact me via my website http://www.stevebonthrone.com/.
10. Back Raises on the ball

You will probably be familiar with this exercise as well. Lie in the prone position with the waist on top of the ball. For the beginner, place the knees on the ball and for the advanced exerciser, extend the legs and push up on the toes. Place the finger tips by the side of the head and raise the chest up, pushing the stomach onto the ball and then return to the starting position. Breathe out as you rise up and breathe in as you return. Do 3 sets of 15 reps. As with any exercise using the ball, perform the repetitions slowly and with control for full effect.

The snow is coming

If the weather forecasts are correct there should be snow all over the Alps this weekend.

Just in time for the arrival of most of our staff and before the hotel opens for the season on the 9th of December.

As soon as the snow starts to fall we will send you some pictures from Les Gets

Last weekend's wedding

Thanks to those who have asked us about last weekend's wedding involving Callum from our sales team who got married to his long term girlfriend Lisa. Our office manager Martin was the best man.

Everything went well and the picture below shows Callum and Martin before the evening reception.
