Guestbook

'A perfect chalet; everything was so effortless'

'Wonderful food, a fantastic chalet and perfect snow'

Smith tip

Courchevel is famously popular with Russians so New Year here has some unusual elements to it. Russian tradition says tthat his is when Ded Moroz, or Father Frost, and his grand-daughter Snegurochka the snow girl pay a visit. Father Frost certainly isn’t Father Christmas; he wears blue and can freeze anyone who’s been naughty, so behave yourselves! Children sing songs or recite a poem before receiving gifts hidden underneath a decorated pine tree.

Courchevel, France[view map]

Style
Slope-side sophistication
Setting
Courchevel, French Alps

Courchevel has gained a reputation in recent years for high-altitude razzmatazz, where your style off the slopes is as important as your finesse on them. As part of the Trois Vallées, Courchevel is the largest ski area in Europe with over 400 miles of runs. At Chalets de Vanoise’s properties you get the best of both worlds. Set in the secluded hamlet of Belvédère, Chalet Chamois sleeps 14 guests and is right on the slopes and within easy reach of the resort’s rarefied glitz.

Packing tips
