  1. These ski chalets look incredible. I’ve stayed in the neighbouring Val Thorens and Meribel many times but I’d love to stay in Courchevel too. The Three Valleys ski area is my all time favourite place to ski – such a vast area with great snow conditions. As for these chalets… I think they may be a bit out my budget but a girl can dream!

  2. I would be torn between the leisure facilities at the chalet, pools, gym and home cinema etc and going skiing. Tough choices.

  3. I’ve got nothing but admiration for the architects who design these chalets. They really do think of everything, including every last luxury.

  4. I feel there is some disconnect about the feel of Courchevel from the outside to the inside. Very rustic, cottage, and chalet vibe on the exterior, but very modern and city-like in the interior. I would want something more rustic like Chalet Pearl to make me feel like I’m really in the French Alps. The other chalets look like you’re staying in a luxurious hotel in the city. But I love all the amenities that you can have access to for days when you’re snowed in or cannot do any outdoor activities.
