In its 2023 Ski Report, Savills examined prime ski property through the lenses of demand, resort investment, regional differences and the appeal of longer stays. This article is a dated reading guide to that report. It preserves the report’s period and attribution so a reader can distinguish the 2023 source from a current market view.

What the 2023 report covers

The report compares ski destinations in North America, the European Alps and the Asia-Pacific region. Its discussion connects residential demand with resort quality, access, investment in mountain infrastructure and the lifestyle reasons people consider a ski home. Those are lenses for reading the document; they are not forecasts for a particular property or buyer.

For a broker or owner reviewing the report, begin by writing down the report date, geography and definition of “prime” used in the relevant section. Then separate observations about an entire destination from the due diligence required for a specific town, building or listing.

North America

Savills’ 2023 discussion describes a North American market supported by interest in the Rockies and by resort investment. Use that section to identify which resort improvements, access questions and local supply considerations deserve a current follow-up. The report itself should remain the cited source for its period observations.

European Alps

The report presents the Alps as an established ski destination with ongoing resort investment and a broad cross-border buyer audience. Read the destination profiles alongside current local information, including planning, access, ownership and operating conditions, before drawing a conclusion about an individual opportunity.

Asia-Pacific

The Asia-Pacific section considers the effect of regional travel conditions, currency and changing participation in skiing. These factors can move quickly. Use the historical report to understand the questions it raised, then source current data before advising a client.

A parting thought

A useful industry report gives a professional better questions. Note which observations are historical, test them against current local evidence and make the limits of the source visible when discussing a ski property with a client.
