The Landing Resort & Spa Promotes Work-Life Balance On Lake Tahoe Ski Slopes At Heavenly Mountain Resort

The Landing Resort & Spa in South Lake Tahoe helps guests combine business and pleasure, pairing executive work offerings and nearby on-slope coworking space at Heavenly Ski Resort with complimentary ski valet and ultra-luxe après options. The Landing’s award-winning comforts allow guests to escape the daily grind knowing they can tend to business as needed while focusing on the pleasure of skiing and relaxing at Lake Tahoe’s only five-star boutique lakeside resort.

More than 42% of employees feel obligated to check email on vacation, a recent study revealed, and even more interestingly, 67% of respondents “reported feeling more productive following a vacation” – which means that they not only checked email while on a trip for pleasure, but also felt more productive when they returned. Lake Tahoe’s only five-star boutique lakeside resort, The Landing Resort & Spa in South Lake Tahoe, California, has the answer for travelers intent on combining work and pleasure this ski season.

While relaxing in luxurious digs at The Landing, guests can keep up to speed on work with the hotel’s high-speed WiFi, in-room desks and convenient executive business center. Slopeside, guests can combine work and play carving turns at nearby Heavenly Ski Resort with its fresh new coworking space at 8,250 feet. With The Landing’s complimentary ski valet and Mercedes-Benz shuttle to the Heavenly gondola, guests can sink into a perfect powder day while still getting done those critical tasks that make it possible to take a vacation in the first place.

“We know how hard it can be to completely disconnect when business needs arise,” says Henri Birmele, General Manager of The Landing. “Our goal is to help make maintaining the best work-life balance a real possibility for our guests.”

A seamless snowy escape – on or off the slopes – is more than possible at the Landing, which handles all the details in the winter wonderland that is Lake Tahoe, helping guests feel as though they’re on a sumptuous personal retreat. An abundance of winter-oriented amenities – such as the complimentary Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van transport, dedicated ski valet service for gear, boot warmers and secure storage, along with in-room rental fittings for guests looking to avoid hauling their own – provide guests with a customized, pampered experience.

For keeping the work tasks on track, The Landing boasts fast WiFi property-wide, as well as oversized desks and fireplaces in the ultra-luxe Premium King or Queen rooms. Individually and lavishly decorated, each guest room offers soft leather chairs, plush robes, luxurious high-thread-count linens and a bath with jetted tub, walk-in rain shower and heated marble floors. And the resort’s comfortable yet efficiently designed Business Center features copying, faxing and complimentary Internet, with state-of-the-art computers and plenty of work space.

In addition, The Landing sits mere blocks from the gondola to Tahoe’s largest ski resort, Heavenly, known for its amazing lake vistas and its dedication to “work hard, play hard.” Heavenly’s new ski-in, ski-out Tahoe Mountain Lab shared workspace allows visitors to schedule hourly or extended time in South Lake Tahoe’s on-mountain coworking option – enabling guests to take care of business without even removing their boots.

Meanwhile, The Landing’s lake-view deck offers an ideal vantage point for après-ski cocktails and savory Greek-inspired snacks from the resort’s award-winning on-site restaurant, Jimmy’s – also ideal for entertaining clients or conducting meetings in the chic-yet-relaxed setting – which was recently named a South Lake Tahoe Best Hotel Restaurant and Best Fine Dining on the South Shore in Tahoe Quarterly. And after a day of having it all, guests can further take advantage of The Landing’s comforts with a visit to the resort’s on-site spa – which offers sport-specific massages using local and organic herbs and and a warm, welcoming vibe – for the ultimate in relaxation and rejuvenation.
