Located on the Face de Bellevarde piste high up in Les Carats, Val d’Isère’s most exclusive enclave, Chalet Montana is the finest ski-in and ski-out chalet in the resort. Each of the six sumptuous bedrooms has splendid views across the tow and the sunny balcony is the perfect perch for afternoon tea, served by one of the chalet’s five staff. Montana’s wow factor is boosted yet further by its fabulous pool where you can have a slope-side splash complete with mountain views.

In the know
Eating and DrinkingChalet Montana has its own chef who prepares breakfast and afternoon tea daily and conjures up delicious gourmet diners on six nights a week. You can enjoy these out on the terrace on warmer evenings. There’s a Perrier Jouët Champagne reception upon your arrival and the chalet has a well-stocked open bar. Supermarket: The nearest large supermarket is in Bourg Saint Maurice but you are unlikely to require anything but essentials given the level of service here. The Spar in the centre of town near the Tourism Office has a surprisingly good deli counter and an impressive selection of regional and international wines.
Deli: There’s a weekly market every Monday in the centre of Val d’Isère. It sells everything from ski gear to jewellery but is also a good place to browse for excellent Savoyarde meats and cheeses.
The chalet has five staff including a chalet manager who acts as your personal concierge throughout your stay. Montana’s expert chef prepares breakfast and afternoon tea every day and a gourmet evening meal on six nights a week.

Children’s lunch and dinner menus are available, too. Let your chalet manager know about special occasions, such as birthdays and anniversaries, and they will be happy to help with arrangements.
