Chalet Face à Face

Chalet Face à Face — where storybook alpine mornings meet five-star living

Awarded World’s Best New Ski Chalet 2021, Chalet Face à Face french alps perches in a lofty, ski-adjacent position in Val d’Isère, delivering jaw-dropping views and true ski-in / ski-out convenience. Imagine waking under a cathedral ceiling, stepping out onto a balcony to inhale crisp mountain air and watching La Face roll beneath you — this is a house that turns every winter day into a memory.

A welcome that feels like coming home

You arrive on the ground floor into a wide, practical hallway with a generous ski room — complete with boot warmers and storage for all your mountain kit — plus a guest WC and laundry facilities. Practical touches like these mean less fuss in the morning and more time shredding the slopes.

The living heart — top floor theatre of light and space

The top floor hosts the dramatic open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. Double-height windows and a five-metre vaulted ceiling frame alpine vistas; an elegant hanging fireplace and carefully chosen furnishings create a warm, social space for cocktails, long dinners and late-night conversation. The dining table seats 10, and the open kitchen overlooks the room — perfect for social cooking or for a private chef when booked on a catered basis. Step out to the balcony to drink in the panorama, or sink into the mezzanine TV snug above the living room where children can nest on beanbags for movie nights.

Bedrooms & capacity — a home for big groups

• Master suite (first floor): floor-to-ceiling windows, sublime views of La Face, en-suite with a separate shower.
