An intimate chalet-apartment in the very heart of Val d’Isere, nicely set back from the high street and completely secluded. The decor is VIP’s signature contemporary Alpine style: sleek, chic and elegantly restrained, yet still wonderfully warm and inviting against the chill of mountains in mid winter. The apartment enjoys a small terrace with views to the Fornet. Rather unique to have a property of this quality for groups as small as four.

Location

Set back off the high street in the very centre of resort and only 300m from the lifts and nursery slopes.

Room 1

Double bedroom with terrace, en suite bath, handbasin and WC. Limited space for an extra temporary bed or cot.

Imagine all the pleasure of a dinner party with friends every evening for a week; without the cooking, the taxi, the babysitter or the washing up. You don’t even have to bring a bottle, our celebrated sommelier has taken care of that. Nothing whets the appetite quite like a day on the mountain. Fuel your passion with a full hearty breakfast and then reward your daily exertions with a seductively sinful teatime treat balanced by an evening of healthy fine dining.

Our Executive Chef is passionate about food and hugely sensitive to the appetite of hungry skier and healthy palate. The new and refined 2012 menus are heavy enough to reward mountain exertion yet light and simple enough to leave you grinning not groaning.

If you are staying in one of our larger CLUB chalets then your chef will be offering canapés and a choice of menu every evening; a little more choice to pander the penchant of everyone in the party.
