What MMV does
MMV is a French mountain holiday specialist founded in 1988 that operates a portfolio of 22 Club Villages (full-board, all-inclusive resorts) and Club Residences (self-catering apartments) across French Alpine ski destinations including La Plagne, Val Thorens, Tignes, Les 2 Alpes, Alpe d'Huez, Les Menuires, Val Cenis, Flaine, and Serre Chevalier. The company serves primarily families with children through its differentiated Anim'MMV kids' club program spanning ages 18 months to 17 years, alongside couples, groups, solo travelers, and pet owners seeking Alpine experiences in both winter (ski) and summer seasons.
The technology layer is conventional hospitality infrastructure: an integrated online booking platform on mmv-holidays.co.uk, the MMV Club mobile app for bookings and activity registration, a reservation center, and standard third-party tools (Septeo for web, Selligent for email marketing, Moneweb for payments, LoungeUp for guest messaging). There is no proprietary AI/ML, no API platform, and no SDK offering. The company's differentiators are physical and service-based — ski-in/ski-out access at most properties, Green Key sustainable tourism certification at 19 of 22 clubs, an 85% customer recommendation rate, and bundled services (ski passes at up to 30% discount, equipment rental at up to 50% discount, ESF ski lessons, Vac'Assur travel insurance, wellness/spa, kids' clubs).
Revenue is generated primarily through accommodation bookings (Village Club full-board stays from approximately €132.80/person/night; Club Residence apartments from approximately €113.60/night), supplemented by ancillary services including ski lift passes, equipment rental commissions, wellness treatments, dining, kids' club fees, and travel insurance. Pricing follows pay-as-you-go billing with seasonal variation and promotional discounts (up to 24% early booking, up to 20% last-minute). Distribution is direct-to-consumer via website, mobile app, reservation center, and walk-ins, with travel agencies and Travelski as partner channels. The company is privately held, headquartered in Saint-Laurent-du-Var (France), operates as a simplified joint-stock company (SAS), and is a subsidiary of the Compagnie des Alpes group. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed; the company secured a €16 million capital increase led by Nov Tourisme in June 2021.
