With each winter, the French Alps unveil a new level of alpine luxury, and next season is set to be no exception. Whether you’re seeking slope side elegance, world-class service, or award-winning design, these five standout chalets promise unforgettable experiences.
Here’s your first look at the properties turning heads for all the right reasons.
1. Chalet Marco Polo – Val d’Isère
A masterpiece of alpine elegance, Chalet Marco Polo offers over 1,000m² of impeccably styled interiors in the heart of Val d’Isère. Set discreetly back from the main road yet close to the town centre, it’s the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.
Sleeping up to 14 guests across six en-suite bedrooms, this chalet is as luxurious as it is spacious. The standout feature? A gold-leaf-covered swimming pool designed by Christian Lacroix — entirely chlorine-free thanks to ozone technology. From its bar area and cinema room to its games den and private fromagerie, Marco Polo is a sanctuary of relaxation, complete with panoramic views over La Face piste.
2. Chalet Le Namaste – Courchevel 1850
Tucked within the exclusive gated Hameau de Cachemire and once the summer retreat of Baroness Margaret Thatcher, Chalet Le Namaste blends history with high-altitude glamour.
With ski-in/ski-out access to the Bellecote piste, this 400m² chalet is a Courchevel icon. It sleeps up to 12 adults and 4 children, and features a private spa with a mood-lit pool, Hammam, massage room, and yoga space. Spread across multiple terraces with sun-trap spots for every hour of the day, it’s a property designed for relaxation. Inside, modern art, a mezzanine workspace, and state-of-the-art tech complete the experience.
3. Chalet Bacchus – Courchevel Moriond
Named after the Roman God of wine, Chalet Bacchus is an entertainer’s dream. With ski-in/ski-out access on the Belvedere piste and 560m² of contemporary alpine style, it’s a chic base for larger groups.
Seven spacious en-suite bedrooms (each with balcony access), a double-height living area, and a private spa floor make this chalet truly special. Think 10-metre pool, sunken jacuzzi, sauna, hammam, cinema room, and an outdoor heated courtyard — all just steps from the slopes. The wine cellar and oversized balcony hot tub are perfect for après-ski evenings.
4. Chalet Le Grenier – Méribel
Positioned opposite the Morel chairlift and Hulotte piste, Chalet Le Grenier offers true ski-in/ski-out convenience in the heart of Méribel. Designed by the celebrated Nicky Dobree, this five-floor chalet is the perfect blend of alpine tradition and elegant interiors.
Six en-suite bedrooms, including two generous primary suites, accommodate up to 12 guests. The main living area features triple-height ceilings, vast windows, and mountain-facing terraces, while the downstairs spa boasts a sunken jacuzzi, sauna, massage room, and gym. A games room, cinema-style snug, and study space ensure there’s something for everyone — whether you’re working remotely or just enjoying a winter escape.
Located in the heart of Val d’Isère, Chalet Lhotse is a rare gem offering both a central location and panoramic views of the infamous La Face piste. Spanning 500m², this elegant alpine retreat sleeps up to 12 adults and 2 children across six en-suite bedrooms and a cosy adjoining bunk room.
The open-plan living space includes a grand piano, fireplace, and bar — ideal for evening gatherings. The dining area offers stunning views, while the private downstairs bar and games room elevate après-ski to an art form.
The wellness facilities are standout, with a chlorine-free ozone indoor pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, Hammam, massage room and gym — all wrapped in warm alpine design and cutting-edge tech. Lhotse is also wonderfully family-friendly, featuring a dedicated mezzanine lounge for children complete with games console and widescreen TV.
