Apartment Yellow | 2-Bedroom Chalet with Spa in Courchevel

Apartment Yellow sits at 1550 metres in Courchevel Village, placing you minutes from the Grangettes lift and direct access to hundreds of kilometres of Three Valleys terrain. Six guests can base themselves here for a winter season that combines mountain-village quiet with immediate slope proximity—the kind of location that eliminates lengthy transfers and maximises time on snow.

Inside Apartment Yellow

Apartment Yellow sleeps 6 guests across 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, occupying 67 square metres on the third floor of a contemporary alpine residence. The apartment’s open-plan living and dining zone functions as the social hub: large sliding doors frame the surrounding peaks, while a furnished balcony extends the living area outdoors. A six-seat dining table anchors the space—purposefully sized for shared meals, fondue evenings, and the kind of relaxed conversation that defines mountain stays. The kitchen runs the full depth of modern convenience: full-sized appliances, dedicated fondue and raclette equipment, and counter space that accommodates both quick breakfasts and multi-course preparation.

The master bedroom houses a king-size bed, wall-mounted television, substantial wardrobe storage, and an ensuite bathroom featuring a bathtub, double vanity unit, and separate WC. A private balcony extends from this room, capturing south-facing views across the valley. The second bedroom contains twin beds configured to convert into a double, its own ensuite shower room with heated towel rail, television, safe, and a second private balcony facing the same alpine panorama. A separate guest WC serves the living areas.

Practical amenities run throughout: Wi-Fi connectivity, boot warmer for ski equipment, washing machine and tumble dryer, iron and ironing board, hairdryer, and television access in both sleeping quarters. Cots and high chairs are available on request (subject to additional charge), making the space workable for families with very young children.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The furnished balcony functions as an extension of the living space rather than an afterthought. Morning coffee here, with the mountains silent and the valley still waking, becomes part of the rhythm of your stay. The balcony captures natural light throughout the day and opens directly from the living area—no transition, no barrier between inside and out. Underground parking in the residence’s dedicated garage eliminates the frustration of street parking or external lots; your space is yours alone.

The residence itself houses shared wellness facilities: a sauna and steam room, plus a gym. After a morning of steep descents and mogul fields, these facilities provide genuine recovery rather than tourist-season alternatives scattered across the village. A private ski locker within the building means your equipment remains at hand, dried and ready, without occupying apartment space.

Location: Courchevel and the Surrounding Area

Courchevel Village functions as the entry point to the Three Valleys—Europe’s largest ski interconnect by terrain size. The Grangettes lift sits moments from Apartment Yellow; from there, a single connection reaches Courchevel 1850, the resort’s hub. From 1850, the Tovets piste provides direct descent back to village level, creating a natural circuit that defines most skiing days. The broader Three Valleys network spans 600 kilometres of marked runs across Courchevel, Méribel, and Val d’Isère, with cable car and lift connections that eliminate return transfers.

Courchevel Village itself operates as a functional rather than glamorous settlement. Traditional chalets line pedestrian streets; a dedicated ski school occupies its own compound near the Grangettes lift; rental shops and repair specialists cluster near the village centre; bakeries open early for pre-dawn starts; restaurants range from casual crêperies to seated dinners. The Aquamotion leisure centre in neighbouring Courchevel 1850, roughly 2 kilometres uphill, provides an alternative to skiing on lower-visibility days: indoor swimming pools, sauna, and spa treatments occupy a modern facility designed for families and recovery.

The nearest major airport is Chambéry-Savoie Airport, approximately 80 kilometres away, with a drive time of around 90 minutes via the N90 and A43 motorway. Geneva Airport, 160 kilometres distant, requires approximately 2.5 hours by road and serves as an alternative for international arrivals. Grenoble-Isère Airport, 100 kilometres away, functions as a secondary option with less consistent international service.

Winter dominates the calendar here, with reliable snow from December through March. January and February represent the peak season: coldest temperatures, deepest base depth, and highest visitor numbers. Late December and early January attract families during school holidays. March and April remain viable, though daytime warming accelerates; spring snow is less predictable. Summer transforms the valley entirely—hiking, mountain biking, and golf replace skiing—but this region exists for winter sports.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Families with children aged 5–15 find the setup particularly functional. The two bathrooms mean morning routines don’t bottleneck; the cot and high chair availability (on request) accommodates younger guests; the sauna and gym provide adult decompression while kids settle for the evening. The ski school operates directly from the village, eliminating complex logistics.

Groups of friends—three or four couples, or a mix of couples and siblings—use the two bedrooms and sofa bed comfortably. The dining table seats six naturally; the living area accommodates group socialising without feeling cramped. The shared gym and sauna facilities provide solo time without leaving the building.

Multigenerational parties (grandparents, adult children, grandchildren) benefit from the balconies on both bedrooms—private spaces for different age groups—and the nearby ski school for younger members. The underground parking eliminates mobility concerns for older guests.

Solo skiers and couples travel lighter here. The apartment feels appropriately scaled: not oversized, not cramped. The Wi-Fi enables remote work for those blending skiing with professional commitments.

Non-skiers—partners, family members, or friends—occupy the space comfortably. Courchevel 1850, 2 kilometres away, offers shopping, restaurants, and spa facilities. The Aquamotion centre provides swimming and wellness. Mountain walking trails operate year-round.
