Chalet Elevation, Chamonix

Description

High ceilings, glass walls and all the designer mod-cons you could wish for ensure this isn’t just your average ski chalet. In fact, with its sleek modern décor, feature chandelier and four spacious floors, Chalet Elevation feels more like a stylish Bond villa, albeit with a few cosy alpine touches.

The main open-plan living areas take over the chalet’s first floor, which is almost entirely clad in glass, and opens out onto a large balcony with an outdoor dining table and barbeque. From here, look out onto your private garden and outdoor hot tub, and admire uninterrupted views of the famous Aiguille Verte and dramatic Drus Mountain.

When it’s too cold to be outside, relax on the huge cream sofa with the wood burner roaring and a drink from the well-stocked bar in hand. Beautiful wooden beams, pitched ceilings, and fluffy soft furnishings ensure you still feel like you’re in the Alps – if the mountain views weren’t clue enough.

As well as six bright and airy bedrooms to relax in, plus a gorgeous kitchen-dining area, the chalet also has several surprises tucked away. Descend down into the lower ground floor and you’ll find a dedicated spa area, complete with a sauna and indoor swimming pool with massage jets. A large cinema room and chalet-wide Bose speaker system complete the package and seal the deal on this being the ultimate ski holiday party pad.

Eating

Before you even arrive at Chalet Elevation the holiday indulgence will have begun, as your professional chef will consult you on menu preferences and your chalet host will ensure the bar is well stocked. When you walk through the door, expect to be greeted with canapés and champagne – because how else would you start a luxury ski holiday?

During your stay, you’ll be able to enjoy hearty breakfasts with a selection of hot dishes and a delicious continental buffet on offer every day. There will also be afternoon tea, cakes and a selection of pastries waiting for you after the slopes.

On six days a week, a delicious four-course dinner will be served at the spacious dining table, along with a selection of carefully selected wines. Your chef will also be happy to serve an early evening kids’ tea so that children don’t have to be on their best behaviour and adults can enjoy a more relaxing meal post-bedtime.

You’ll have one evening to sample the local restaurants on staff’s day off and your chalet host will be more than happy to make recommendations and bookings.

For those who want to experience all Chamonix has to offer, Chalet Elevation can be taken on a self-catered basis, allowing you to venture out in the evenings and discover the town’s many wonderful restaurants and bars.

With an indoor swimming pool and a basement cinema room, your kids will think they’ve hit the jackpot at Chalet Elevation. In fact, you may struggle to get them to ever leave the lower ground floor – which might not be the worst thing, as it means the adults can enjoy the views and the living space upstairs in peace.

The outdoor hot tub is sure to be another winner with the youngsters, as is the large garden, which is perfect for making snowmen and snow angels in.

At the end of another fun day, junior guests will enjoy hunkering down in the bunkroom. Two of the double bedrooms can also be converted into twins should you have more children in the group.

Cots and highchairs can be provided for smaller guests and childcare can be arranged on request.
