Luxury Ski Chalets in Megève, France

Luxury Ski Chalets in Megeve, France

Megève is one of world’s most famous and iconic ski destinations. The rich and famous gather on these slopes every year to marvel at the spectacularly beautiful valley, incredible skiing, charming car free village and peruse some of the Alps’ finest retail emporia. 

Megève came about over a century ago in response to the chic resort of St Moritz in neighbouring Switzerland. Seeing the rise of this glitzy ski village, a member of the Rothschild family proposed building a resort in France to compete. The result is the rather magnificent Megève. 

The luxury French ski resort has maintained its history admirably and is centred around its original village which dates back to the 13th Century. The ancient cobble stone streets wobble their way through the glamorous resort lined with modern restaurants and boutiques oozing Gallic charm and Alpine chic.

Megève is also a place where you’ll find a plethora of fine dining establishments and boasts home to the only three Michelin starred chef in the Alps. Sat under the watchful eye of the Europe’s highest mountain, the resort is part of the Mont Blanc Massif ski area affording Megève access to 116 lifts and nearly 450km of pistes.

In keeping with the ancient farming village the buildings here in Megève are given strict guidelines to follow; no high rise hotels or masses of concrete are visible in the village and the plethora of new and old luxury ski chalets in the valley are designed to resemble the traditional farmhouses of generations gone by.
