Chalet Bibi, Verbier

Description

A stunning example of swish Swiss style (try saying that after a couple of glasses of wine), this luxury ski chalet in Verbier is the perfect base for a week in 4 Vallées ski area.

Chalet Bibi’s secluded and elevated position offers breathtaking views over the surrounding peaks. Advanced skiers can ski off-piste all the way from the Savoleyres side of the mountain back to the chalet’s terrace.

When you return from your day’s ski, Chalet Bibi really is a sight for sore eyes. The interior communal spaces are truly spectacular. Cathedralesque high ceilings, rustic woods and natural stone create a dramatic but cosy backdrop. Gathered around the impressive stone fireplace are a capacious sofa and mid-century-modern chairs, all generously festooned with warm throws and cushions to make your snowy bolthole as welcoming as can be.

In the large, farmhouse-style kitchen, which is set a little away from the living areas, a high-spec bar has been installed where you can drink, chat and watch your talented chef at work whipping up a spectacular four-course dinner for you.

The outdoor spaces are pretty special, too, with breathtaking views from the south-facing terraces across the mountains and a superb outdoor sunken cedar wood hot tub to relax in. For those for whom pampering is a priority, there is also a fabulous sauna and Hammam where you can soothe any aching muscles after a few hours on Verbier’s slopes.

Each of the uber-comfortable bedrooms has bags of contemporary Alpine style, the highest quality furnishings and spa-style en-suites, making each the perfect bolthole from the world when you need to find a bit of peace and space. And peace and space you will find here in spades, whether you’re snuggled under a luxury duvet with a book and a glass of wine, or out on the balcony, hands wrapped around a mug of rich hot chocolate, taking in that awe-inspiring mountain view. Up here at one of Verbier’s highest points you’ll feel like king of the world.

When you return to your chalet, afternoon tea, coffee and freshly baked treats are waiting for you. On six evenings, Champagne and canapés are served before dinner, followed by a three-course dinner, each course introduced by your chef, and then a locally inspired cheeseboard, coffees and digestifs. To accompany this delicious food, you have a choice of hand-picked house wines, soft drinks, beers and 3 bottles of house spirits.

If required, your chef can cater specifically to children’s dinner time, with dishes that will appeal to younger palates.
