The Ultimate Ski Chalets is our latest podcast episode. https://actionpackedtravel.com/show/the-ultimate-ski-chalets
Globally, there's just a handful of specialist operators who look after their guests on this giddy level. London-based Consensio Holidays is the leader of the pack. They’ll cater for every whim.
"We had a lady a few weeks ago who is allergic to colour. She doesn’t like colour around her in the chalet. So in order for her to be able to come on holiday with us, we had to tone everything down in the chalet. So we had to remove any throws or bright coloured pictures and replace them with other things. We had to make sure the curtains were all to her liking. Yes, it’s difficult in some places, as you can imagine, but essentially we had to go over the entire chalet, remove all the colour and replace it with beiges, beiges and greys basically is what she wanted. Even the flowers.”
