Italian Hospitality Collection has opened its first ski venture, Le Massif, a five-star hotel in Courmayeur, Italy at the foot of Mont Blanc.
A member of The Leading Hotels of the World, Le Massif houses 80 bedrooms and suites, two on-site restaurants and an expansive spa.
Centred around Italian Hospitality Collection’s signature Equilibrium philosophy – pioneered at the collection’s Tuscan spa properties – the treatment menu at Le Massif Spa has been curated to tackle internal inflammation.
Drawing on spa knowledge accrued in Italy over the millennia, the Equilibrium philosophy considers wellness of the body and spirit as one. It teaches guests how to manage stress and lifestyle to create balance and harmony, and helps to equip them with knowledge to embrace a healthier way of living.
It includes nutrition – a special Equilibrium diet based on the principles of the Mediterranean and macrobiotic diets is available at the restaurants each day – as well as stress control through relaxing rituals and forest bathing; physical exercise and soothing and anti-inflammatory treatments based on essences found in the mountains.
Secrets of the Wood is a collection of treatments that bring together knowledge about the Alps with the therapeutic properties of the flora found in its prairies and woodland, including heather, mountain lavender and marigolds and the aromas of herbs, berries and conifers, all used in harmony with the seasons and cycles of nature.
The Le Massif Spa is also designed to offer an antidote to a day on the slopes, with a range of treatments, including alpine stone massages, designed to soothe aching muscles.
In addition to the nearby skiing, Le Massif offers other activities such as heli- and para-skiing, as well as hiking, golfing and cycling.
Le Massif joins Italian Hospitality’s other properties, which include Chia Laguna resort in Sardinia and the thermal spa hotels Grotta Giusti, Bagni di Pisa and Fonteverde in Tuscany.
