From Sea to Snow: A Luxury Winter Itinerary

How many days do we need for a winter trip to Lebanon?

To fully experience both the Mediterranean coast and the alpine slopes, a four-day Beirut winter itinerary is highly recommended. This allows adequate time to balance thrilling winter sports with coastal relaxation and high-end gastronomy.

 

A perfect 4-day sea-to-snow itinerary

• Day 1: Arrive at your suite on the shores of the Mediterranean. Spend the afternoon exploring Beirut's cultural highlights before dining on authentic Lebanese winter mezze.
• Day 2: Depart early for the Mount Lebanon range and enjoy a full day of skiing in Lebanon, followed by a cosy chalet lunch. Return to the coast in the evening.
• Day 3: Visit the historic Byblos Christmas tree and explore the artisan markets along the northern coast.
• Day 4: Dedicate the day to recovery at our luxury spa before concluding your stay with a lavish waterfront dinner.

 

Which ski resorts are best for luxury travellers?

For the ultimate Lebanon ski resort experience, Mzaar Kfardebian and Faraya are the premier destinations. Located just an hour from Beirut, they offer pristine slopes, modern infrastructure and a chic après-ski scene featuring upscale mountain lounges and roaring fireplaces.

 

How to arrange transportation to the mountains?

Navigating mountain roads in the winter requires expertise. Our Concierge service takes care of the details, organising your entire alpine excursion. We provide luxury chauffeured vehicles, secure your ski equipment rentals in advance and handle all the logistics for a flawless day trip.

 

Where to dine after the slopes

Return to the warmth of Cilantro Restaurant and indulge in rich, comforting international cuisine. During the holidays, our culinary team prepares spectacular festive spreads to satisfy a post-skiing appetite.

 

Where to stay for a coastal basecamp?

There is no need to pack and unpack at a remote mountain chalet. Make Kempinski Summerland Hotel & Resort Beirut your luxurious base. Our luxurious rooms and suites on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea allow you to ski in the morning and fall asleep to the sound of ocean waves at night.
