Canadiens’ Kirk Muller Joins Luxury Retreats

7/21/2009

Kirk Muller, former National Hockey League player and current assistant-coach of the Montreal Canadiens, has partnered with Montreal-based villa rental specialists Luxury Retreats.

Muller will act as an Elite Partner to Luxury Retreats, promoting the company and private villa rental concept to the NHL and its network of players and staff.

“I’m so excited to be involved with such a classy corporation,” said Muller, who has traditionally avoided sponsorship deals. Muller joined with Luxury Retreats after renting a Caribbean villa through the company.

“When you decide to affiliate your name with a company, it should be something you are passionate about. I’ve always enjoyed travelling with my family and close friends, and the villa experience maximizes the time I have with them, ” said Muller.

The new position will have no effect on Muller’s status with the Canadiens, with whom he is entering his fourth season as assistant-coach. Muller also spent just over three seasons with the Canadiens during his 19-year career as a player, and was part of the organization’s Stanley Cup-winning team of 1992-93.

“It’s great to have such a respected and likeable figure like Kirk on the Luxury Retreats team,” said Luxury Retreats’ CEO Joe Poulin, who personally invited Muller to join the company in a special associate role.

Luxury Retreats’ client list already includes several NHL players, celebrities, and c-level executives from every industry. Its carefully-selected villas are the ultimate in vacation luxury, comfort and privacy, with most homes offering private pools and full staffing. Luxury Retreats also provides complimentary concierge services to tailor unique travel experiences for every guest, from chef demonstrations and yoga instruction to custom boating excursions.

Luxury Retreats is the world’s largest full-service luxury villa rental specialist, offering almost 2,000 elite properties from $400 to $13,000 per night in over 70 worldwide destinations. Founded in 1999, the company has grown into a respected leader in the industry, with over 80 employees in its Montreal headquarters and satellite offices in Hawaii, the Caribbean and Europe.
