Snow to Sun: Winter Olympics ends under the sun in the Riviera

What an incredible Winter Olympics season it has been in Milan and Cortina this year. For us at Luxuria Tennis, this included a different vision: combining the energy of Olympics in Milan with sunshine and tennis on the Riviera. 


The concept was simple, but certainly exceptional. 


Milan was our starting point with Olympics access, which included premium seating, Olympics hospitality lounges and seamless private transfer between events. This experience was further enriched by a trip to the Olympic Cauldron light show at the Arch of Peace. What a memorable view this was, being so close to the Olympic Flame with the Sforza Castle in the background. 


We further enriched this experience with luxury accommodation as well as reservations at the most refined restaurants Milan has to offer. Our client insisted on having a variety of experiences, which included the most authentic Milanese restaurant for risotto alla milanese, accompanied by ossobuco; to a rooftop lounge for cocktails overlooking the Duomo. 


As our client said farewell to the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, within hours, the setting changed entirely. From the Alps, our clients travelled to the Cote d'Azur via private transfer, where the sun was as bright as it could be. They chose to stay at a smaller town at an exclusive hotel known for its views, and this is where our client experienced private tennis sessions by the Mediterranean, followed by long lunches under the sun. 


At Luxuria, this is what we do. With our meticulous planning, combined with our access to most special events, our client was able to experience the Olympics downhill in the snow, only to play tennis on the most special clay courts a few days later. 


2030 Winter Olympics Takes Place In the French Riviera!  

As we say goodbye to Milan, we are excited that the French Riviera will be hosting the 2030 Winter Olympics alongside French Alps. Nice will host the Closing Ceremony on the Promenade des Anglais, the iconic seafront boulevard in Nice, right on the backdrop of the most beautiful Mediterranean views.


This will mark a rare moment when the Côte d'Azur sits directly within the Olympics spotlight, offering a unique possibility of combining winter competition with Mediterranean lifestyle in a single destination. 


We are already getting ready for this momentous occasion with planning for bespoke Olympics programs which will include: 


  • Premium event access and hospitality 

  • Private aviation and ground transfers

  • Luxury accommodation across multiple destinations 

  • Exclusive tennis experiences on the Riviera

  • Corporate hosting and fully tailored itineraries for private groups and individuals. 


We believe true luxury is not having to choose between seasons, but experiencing them both. Contact us to curate an experience that is bound to be special.
