Above the Slopes: Minimalist Ski-in, Ski-out Chalets in the French Alps
Minimalist ski-in, ski-out chalets and apartments across Courchevel, Méribel, Megève and Val d’Isère in the French Alps. Pared-back spaces of wood, stone and light, made for quiet days and the ease of stepping straight onto the snow.
Stillness in Altitude
There’s a certain calm that exists only in the mountains, where design folds into the landscape and comfort takes the shape of stillness. Across Courchevel, Méribel, Megève and Val d’Isère, a new generation of ski-in, ski-out chalets advances alpine luxury not through excess, but through space, texture and restraint.
These chalets and apartments are shaped for those who prefer silence to spectacle. Architecture in dialogue with snow, light and altitude. Each one a private threshold between the mountain’s energy and its peace.
Méribel Rental: Chalet Luna
In Méribel, Luna stands in contrast to the snow with its dark timber, soft light and a sense of purpose in every line. The design is confident yet calm, warmth and weight held in easy balance.
Luna feels hewn from the mountains it occupies. Views are far-reaching, and the amenities, from heated pool to sauna, cover everything you want after a day on the slopes. Inside, texture leads: brushed wood, smooth stone and tailored upholstery. It's a place that restores rather than performs.

Megève Rental: Chalet La Forge
Set within Megève's open countryside, La Forge trades bustle for stillness. Ski-in, ski-out yet ringed by fields and forest, it's more akin to a private estate than a resort chalet. Space is used with restraint, leaving an impression without overwhelming.
Inside, timber and marble set a quiet palette. A heated indoor pool frames valley views; vaulted living spaces, a chef's kitchen and six serene bedrooms make this a home for long, unhurried stays in one of Megève's most secluded settings.

Val d’Isère Rental: Chalet Cervinia
In one of Val d'Isère's most coveted enclaves, Chalet Cervinia feels both extravagant and understated. Close to the Joseray piste yet quietly removed, it balances the mountain's power with a finer hush.
Spread across three levels, the chalet unfolds in warm timber and stone. Six en-suite bedrooms offer framed views of snow and sky; each feels generous, ideal for groups who value private retreat as much as time together. A dedicated wellness floor completes a home designed for recovery between ascents.

Val d’Isère Rental: Chalet Kitsune
Chalet Kitsune feels like it has the perfect setting, part timber, part light and tucked within Val d'Isère's snowline, it brings precision architecture and alpine warmth into easy conversation.
Inside, the proportions feel right: a softly lit pool beneath brushed wood and stone, a sauna that hums low, air carrying that high-altitude hush. Beyond the glass, the slopes draw their lines across the valley that all serve as a reminder that stillness and motion share the same view.
