If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to have an entire mountain to yourself, La Plagne has an unusual answer.
The resort’s new ‘Over The Moon’ experience offers couples the chance to spend a night in a converted snow groomer, high above the ski resort, with spectacular views towards Mont Blanc.
Bookings are now open for the coming winter, giving visitors the opportunity to enjoy one of the French Alps’ most unusual overnight stays.
‘Over The Moon’ is a specially converted snow groomer that has been transformed into a luxury private suite, positioned at 2000m above sea level.
It offers an extraordinary combination of mountain adventure, comfort and seclusion, with the surrounding snow-covered peaks providing a rather special backdrop.
A ‘Thousand-Star’ Hotel
The experience begins at Plagne Bellecôte, where guests are collected and transported up the mountain by snow groomer. The journey takes them towards the summit of Arpette, where their unusual accommodation awaits.
Inside, the former piste machine has been transformed into a cosy retreat for two. There’s a large comfortable bed, heating, atmospheric LED lighting, a coffee machine and a home cinema and music system.
However, the real highlight is outside. Guests can enjoy a private whirlpool bath with panoramic views towards Mont Blanc, before settling down for an evening away from the lights and activity of the resort.
With the snow-covered mountains all around and the night sky above, it’s a very different way to experience a ski resort. The sense of privacy is a major part of the attraction, with guests effectively having their own mountain hideaway for the night.
An unforgettable mountain morning
The experience doesn’t end when the sun goes down. After a night at altitude, guests can enjoy breakfast prepared for them before taking in the early morning views as the first light reaches the surrounding peaks.
There is also the opportunity to make the most of the setting before the ski area gets busy. Guests can then choose to ski back down or return to the resort by chairlift.
