Luxury Ski Chalet Rentals in Megève
Elegant chalets in the most stylish village in the French Alps, with Mont Blanc on the horizon
As featured in
The chic French ski village, created with a little help from the Rothschilds
Megève became a ski resort in the 1920s, when the Rothschild family, looking for an Alpine answer to St Moritz, chose this medieval market village as the place to build it. A century later it remains the most elegant resort in the French Alps: cobbled streets, a church square, horse-drawn sleighs, fur-trimmed boutiques and some of the best food in the mountains.
Our Megève collection runs to 80+ chalets, many of them in the classic Megève style of old wood, stone and open fires, set on the slopes of Mont d'Arbois and Rochebrune or a short drive from the village. The best have views across to Mont Blanc, private spas and a chef for the evening.
Here is a guide to the village, the skiing and the pleasures in between.

The village for walking to dinner, Mont d'Arbois for chalets on the snow and the best views of Mont Blanc, Rochebrune for families, and Chamonix a short drive up the valley.
A medieval square, sleighs and very good shopping
Megève's car-free centre is the reason many people come: a medieval church, a square lit by lanterns, horse-drawn sleighs waiting for passengers, and lanes of boutiques, delicatessens and cafés. It is a resort for strolling, for long lunches and for dressing for dinner, and it feels lived in rather than built for tourists.
Chalets in and around the village put that within a short walk, while those higher up on Mont d'Arbois trade the stroll for views and ski-in access.

Scenic, sociable and wonderful for cruising
Megève's slopes are lower than the big purpose-built resorts, and they are among the prettiest in the Alps, with tree-lined runs and long blue pistes looking straight at Mont Blanc. Mont d'Arbois connects with Saint-Gervais, Rochebrune is popular with families, and Le Jaillet links towards Combloux.
This is skiing to be enjoyed rather than conquered, with a mountain restaurant at every turn. For bigger mountains, Chamonix is a short drive away.

The gourmet capital of the Alps
Megève has a long-standing reputation for gastronomy, with Michelin-starred restaurants in and around the village, rustic mountain tables serving Reblochon and local charcuterie, and a market for those staying in. It is also a resort for non-skiers, with sleigh rides, snowshoeing, a spa culture and very good shopping.
Our concierge can book restaurant tables, private chefs, sleigh rides and ski instructors, and arrange transfers from Geneva.
