MORE THAN SIMPLY providing<br />
just a luxury property for the<br />
perfect stay, Le Collectionist<br />
creates once-in-a-lifetime<br />
experiences. The Francebased<br />
company, founded by<br />
three friends – Max Aniort,<br />
Olivier Cahané and Eliott<br />
Cohen-Skalli – sources<br />
properties around Europe,<br />
spreading out from a base that<br />
began in the South of France,<br />
but now incorporates much<br />
more, including some of the<br />
finest properties in the Alps<br />
for winter adventures. Villas<br />
from Portugal, Italy, Greece, to<br />
Spain, Croatia and Switzerland<br />
– as well as further-flung<br />
properties in Morocco and the<br />
Caribbean – are the building<br />
blocks for a business that relies<br />
as much on the old-fashioned<br />
idea of personal service. From<br />
an emphasis on dealing with<br />
potential clients over the<br />
phone rather than the faceless<br />
world of cyberspace, to having<br />
on-site teams to smooth the<br />
experience as the holiday goes<br />
on, all is catered for.<br />
While one thing remains<br />
constant – the quality of the<br />
property – Le Collectionist<br />
aims to tailor very individual<br />
getaways, depending on a<br />
client’s whims. From the<br />
basics like airport transfers,<br />
grocery delivery and a personal<br />
chef, to the more niche –<br />
cocktail classes and a massage<br />
therapist – the aim is to have<br />
all bases covered, ensuring the<br />
client has a perfectly relaxing<br />
time and, perhaps, allowing<br />
thoughts to turn to the greater<br />
adventures that can be had<br />
beyond the confines of the luxe<br />
accommodation.<br />
And here, Le Collectionist<br />
continues to excel, with<br />
truly authentic experiences.<br />
For example, the culinary<br />
minded can indulge in a<br />
gourmet version of fondue in<br />
a Courchevel yurt, or sample<br />
a true Marseille bouillabaisse<br />
in a fisherman’s cabin.The<br />
more adventurous can explore<br />
Comporta in Portugal on<br />
horseback or follow in footsteps<br />
of Napoleon in Pays-Basque –<br />
in a Citroën 2CV. And the everinquisitive<br />
can gain intimate<br />
insights into a perfumier’s art<br />
or the hand-rolling of cigars in a<br />
Tuscan factory.<br />
Simply put, Le Collectionist<br />
aims to tailor-make dream<br />
holidays – and has all the<br />
resources to do just that.<br />
