Press Release Body: Ljubljana, Slovenia, October 22, 2008 - Last month, the Pierre & Vacances Group joined MountVacation.com, the internet booking platform and catalogue specialized in mountain tourism. As a partner, the group can now feature its 70+ residences located in French ski resorts on the MountVacation.com website and reach its international clientele through it.
The well known Pierre & Vacances Group of course comprises the Pierre & Vacances residences, and also the Maeva residences as well as the Latitude hotels. The group can thus provide accommodations to individuals and families in about 40 French ski resorts and the vacationers have a mountain of options to choose from. A 4 stars residence, a 2 or 3 stars apartment, in holiday villages or not, a room in a 3 or 4 stars hotel, from self-catering to full-board, with or without kids' club or extra services, everyone will find what he or she expects of ideal mountain vacations.
The Pierre & Vacances Group also offers a snow guarantee (your money back if there is no snow). That's good news since about 70% of Pierre & Vacances' alpine residences are ski in/ski out, you are assured to have all-about-ski vacations! The residences and hotels are located in the most prestigious and famous ski resorts, and the unique resorts of Chamonix, Courchevel, Val Thorens and more than 35 others all offer different although equally great skiing opportunities. For Dejan Romih, CEO of MountVacation.com, this new partnership brings a perfect addition to the already rich offer of MountVacation.com: "The clients that Pierre & Vacances accommodates and the public we target are the same: families and individuals wanting to spend some great time on and by the ski slopes. Undoubtedly, our customers will be very satisfied with the diverse accommodation options offered by Pierre & Vacances, whose reputation is already well established."
Customers will find prices offered on MountVacation.com suited for all budgets and always fair. For example, 7 days at the Latitude Hotel du Golf in Les Arcs will cost you about 580EUR per persons and in the Maeva residence Tourotel in Val Thorens, guests will spend as little as 96.25EUR per person for one week in a 4-beds studio cabin. In addition, there are great saving opportunities for those who book early.
MountVacation.com is fairly new on the market but is already the European market leader of online mountain vacations reservation. At this time, the website offers more than 850 accommodation options (hotel rooms, apartments and chalets), equally to winter and summer mountain tourism enthusiasts, through its website. These accommodations are located in about 400 ski resorts in Andorra, Austria, Italy, Germany, Greece, Spain, Slovenia and Switzerland. Consistently, both the customer and the partner support teams can offer assistance in English, French, German, Italian, Slovene and Spanish. These international and multilingual aspects are of those that seduced Pierre & Vacances, as Mrs Olga Escoffier, International Sales Manager, explains: "Although we operate our own booking platform on the pierreetvacances.com website, MountVacation.com offers great advantages. By being specialized in mountain tourism, it reaches a wide international public and allows clients who don't know Pierre & Vacances and would not directly visit our website to discover our offer."
