Discover the pinnacle of mountain luxury with a catered chalet ski holiday. Staying in a private luxury chalet combines generous living spaces with hotel-style service, ranging from private chefs to welcoming chalet hosts. Located in the most iconic resorts in the French Alps, Chalet exclusive by Villanovo's collection of ski chalets offers the perfect setting for a comfortable and personalised Alpine retreat. Each offers a range of services paired with our signature concierge expertise to craft your perfect stay.
A catered chalet offers the ultimate effortless escape, combining the privacy and expansive living spaces of a private home with the tailored service of a luxury hotel. Unlike self-catered properties where guests need to take care of everything, a dedicated team — that can include a professional chef and chalet host — provide excellent service, whether preparing a gourmet meal, serving daily breakfast or managing housekeeping from start to finish. This indulgent approach makes catered chalets particularly well suited to families, groups of friends, celebrations, and multi-generational holidays, ensuring every guest unwinds in total comfort.
A catered chalet includes a range of services for an exceptionally seamless stay. Depending on the chalet, guests can enjoy a dedicated house staff, private chef, discreet housekeeper, chalet manager and attentive host. Dining is a central highlight, with the option of hearty breakfasts, indulgent afternoon teas, and exquisite multi-course evening meals. While daily culinary service, housekeeping, and local concierge support are typically included, additional bespoke experiences can also be readily arranged. From in-house childcare and relaxing spa treatments to door-to-door ski equipment fitting, private ski instructors, and airport transfers, every detail is expertly tailored before or during your stay.
