Discover the Art of Long European Summers with Ultima Collection

(MENAFN- PRCO) For many travellers from the GCC, summer in Europe is more than a holiday. It is a season-long ritual. Families relocate for weeks at a time in search of cooler climates, fresh mountain air and the comfort of beautiful homes where life unfolds at a slower pace.

Ultima Collection’s portfolio of ultra-luxury properties offers exactly this: a collection of extraordinary villas and chalets designed for extended stays, where guests can settle in and experience the season as if it were their own home abroad. From the Swiss Alps to the Mediterranean coast, each property combines the ease of a residential setting with the services of a world-class hotel.

Whether overlooking alpine pastures, perched above the Ionian Sea or hidden within a botanical sanctuary on the French Riviera, Ultima Collection invites GCC travellers to embrace the art of a long European summer.
