Choose Courchevel for your luxury ski holiday and you won’t be disappointed. Residing at an impressive 1850 metres above ski level, it’s a snow sure destination, offering a long ski season from December to mid-April for skiers of all abilities to enjoy.
The resort of Courchevel is actually four separate ski towns, with our portfolio of chalets in the most luxurious of them; Courchevel 1850, France’s first purpose-built ski resort.
Set within the vast Three Valleys, there is access to an amazing amount of runs from Courchevel – 600km in fact - all easily reached via the junction of chairlifts which comes together in the town. You can access six neighbouring ski resorts with ease, including the world-renowned Val Thoren and Meribel.
There’s plenty of other ways to spend your time beyond skiing, with options to give Moriond racing, snowshowing, snow mobiling and even dog sledding a go! But this exclusive, prestigious, high-end resort is for skiers or snowboarders who want more than just gleaming pistes and plenty of choice for their snow sport…Courchevel is all about the après!
Here you can celebrate the start of your holiday with a Michelin-star dinner from an extensive selection of 14 restaurants; sit in a café with a hot chocolate and celebrity-spot; or peruse the likes of Louis Vuitton and Chanel at the high-end brand boutiques in the town.
To match this indulgent setting we have chosen only the very best luxury ski chalets that Couchevel has to offer; many of which feature first-class facilities such as heated pools and their own cinema. Your Inspiring Travel Specialist will be able to find the ideal Courchevel luxury ski chalet for you and your party.
