Chalet Marco Polo, Val d’Isere

Description

Marco Polo is a superb luxury ski chalet in Val d’Isère with a colossal 1000sq. metres of space, devoted to giving visitors an ultra-luxurious experience they will remember. Although in a very central position, Chalet Marco Polo is set back from the road, giving privacy combined with wonderful convenience to access the town centre.

The very stylish Chalet Marco Polo has a unique look and is unlike any other chalet in the Alps. It combines contemporary luxury and warm antique reclaimed timbers, all with Asian ethnic twist. Intricate carved wooden panels sit juxta-positioned with crystal chandeliers and state-of-the–art technology.

The large open plan living space is simply stunning and is perfect for entertaining. The central open fire creates a focal point and guests can enjoy après-ski drinks at the dedicated bar area. Opening out from the main living area is an expansive balcony with heated seating from which to drink in the stunning view towards La Face piste.

Downstairs there is a cave for wonderful wine and cheese tastings and to get the party going. If you prefer something else, how about a game of pool in the games room, or maybe a movie – the cinema projector screen discretely appears from behind a beam while you sink into the sumptuous sofas. For further entertainment, there is also an interactive racing car game (think Scalextrics for grownups) for up to 8 players and a biathlon laser shooting game.

Chalet Marco Polo has six beautifully designed guest rooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, and can accommodate ten adults and four children comfortably.

An entire floor of the chalet is dedicated to wellness. The stunning indoor swimming pool has been finished in gold leaf, and guests can ease aching muscles in the Jacuzzi or Hammam, take a massage in the massage room or try the adjacent automatic hydro massage. The swimming pool and Jacuzzi use ozone technology to be completely chlorine-free. The natural freshwater oxygen process provides a non-toxic, healthy and environmentally friendly alternative.

Marco Polo has been designed with incredible attention to detail. The gym even has two of everything so you can work out in pairs.
