Chalet Magy | 7-Bedroom Chalet with Spa in Les Gets
Holiday Home Rental Description
Fifteen guests arrive at Chalet Magy in Les Gets and discover what serious alpine entertaining looks like: seven bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, a sauna carved into the hillside, and views that stretch across the Portes du Soleil. Located just one kilometre from the vibrant centre of Les Gets and within easy reach of both the Perrières and Chavannes ski lifts, this 400-square-metre property functions as both a winter ski fortress and a summer mountain retreat for families and groups who refuse to compromise on comfort or space.
Inside Chalet Magy
Chalet Magy sleeps 15 guests across 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, spread across three floors with logical separation between sleeping quarters and shared living areas.
Ground Floor anchors the practical side of chalet life. The first bedroom features two single beds, a television, and an en-suite bathroom with shower. A second bedroom accommodates five guests with three single beds and two high beds, television access, and an en-suite shower room. This floor also houses the games room—equipped with table tennis and table football—the dedicated ski storage room (essential when you’re metres from the slopes), a full sauna for post-powder recovery, and a laundry room with dryer and ironing equipment.
First Floor is where the group gathers. The living room dominates this level: an L-shaped sofa faces a wood-burning fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling glass opens onto a wraparound terrace with panoramic mountain sight lines. A separate TV room offers quieter refuge with built-in sofas and its own screen. The kitchen is professionally equipped—gas hob, electric oven, full-sized fridge-freezer, dishwasher, microwave, and a wine fridge for après-ski provisions—with a breakfast bar for casual mornings and a substantial dining table for group meals. Three additional bedrooms occupy this floor: two with double beds, televisions, and en-suite shower bathrooms; one with a double bed, television, en-suite bathroom featuring both bathtub and shower attachment for guests who want options.
Second Floor contains the final two bedrooms, each with a double bed, television, and en-suite shower bathroom. Both feature mezzanine sleeping areas with additional mattresses—valuable flexibility when group configurations shift or when teenagers claim their own territories. This upper level creates natural distance from main living areas, ideal for families managing different sleep schedules.
Central heating throughout means winter comfort extends beyond the fireplace. A sound system (speakers distributed through the property) lets you curate the soundtrack for dinner parties. The practical infrastructure—integrated storage for bikes and skis, laundry facilities, multiple televisions, reliable Wi-Fi—signals that this chalet was designed by someone who understands what large groups actually need, not what marketing copy suggests they want.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
The terrace extends across approximately 25 square metres, positioned to capture southern exposure and mountain views. This is the property’s third living room: where morning coffee happens before descending to the Perrières lift, where late-afternoon groups congregate waiting for dinner reservations, where evening conversations stretch until the temperature finally forces retreat indoors. During summer months, when Les Gets transforms into a mountain biking and hiking destination, this terrace becomes a staging point for daily adventures—you check weather, plan routes, return with tired legs and hungry appetites.
The surrounding gardens provide privacy from neighbouring properties while the hillside location eliminates the sensation of being hemmed in. Dedicated parking accommodates multiple vehicles, and the bike storage area indicates the property’s year-round readiness: winter gear stored below, summer bicycles ready for the extensive trail network surrounding Les Gets.
Location: Les Gets and the Surrounding Area
Les Gets sits within the Portes du Soleil—a 600-kilometre linked ski domain straddling the France-Switzerland border—making this single resort destination one of the world’s largest interconnected mountain playgrounds. Chalet Magy’s position one kilometre from the village centre means you’re close enough to reach restaurants and shops on foot or a short drive, yet far enough to enjoy genuine quiet.
In winter, the Perrières and Chavannes lifts stand approximately one kilometre away, providing immediate access to terrain ranging from beginner-friendly green runs to challenging black slopes. Ski rental shops, instructors, and dedicated snow-sports schools cluster around the village core. The après-ski culture peaks in January and February: restaurants like Clin d’Oeil and La Terrasse serve fondue and raclette to crowds of international visitors, while wine bars and nightlife venues operate until late. Morzine, 10 kilometres south of Les Gets, functions as the larger hub village with additional restaurants, supermarkets, and equipment rental options.
Summer shifts the mountain’s purpose entirely. Hiking trails radiate from the village through alpine meadows toward higher elevations—the walk toward Lac de Nyon (8 kilometres) offers swimming in mountain water and views toward Mont Blanc on clear days. The region has earned serious recognition among mountain bikers: dedicated downhill trails, cross-country routes, and the legendary flow trails at Bike Park Les Gets attract enthusiasts from across Europe. Weekly markets operate year-round in the village square, selling local cheese (Reblochon from nearby Haute-Savoie), charcuterie, and fresh produce. Paragliding schools operate from May through September, launching from higher elevations and landing back in the village.
Geneva Airport sits 90 kilometres northwest—approximately 90 minutes by car via the A40 motorway—making international arrival straightforward. The journey from Geneva involves climbing through French Alps valleys, with landscapes shifting from suburban to genuinely alpine within an hour. Chamonix (45 kilometres south) is accessible for day excursions to Mont Blanc’s visitor areas and Mer de Glace glacier. The Portes du Soleil itself spans from Morzine in France across to Abondance and toward Champéry and Monthey in Switzerland, meaning border crossings are straightforward and frequent (though your Swiss friends will need travel documentation).
December through March represents peak winter season—reliable snow coverage, daily lift operation, and the busiest social calendar. Spring (April-May) brings warmer days, lower prices, and thinner crowds, though higher elevations remain snowy. July and August peak for summer visitors, with warm days (typically 18-22°C), consistent sunshine, and full mountain biking calendars. September offers the sweet spot: manageable crowds, clear days, and cooler temperatures perfect for hiking without overheating.

Who This Villa Suits Best
Chalet Magy functions perfectly for large families managing multiple generations: grandparents, adult children, and grandchildren occupy separate bedrooms yet share the main living areas for group meals and evening activities. The games room entertains teenagers during afternoon transitions between outdoor activities and dinner, reducing the pressure on adults to supervise constantly. Families with younger children benefit from the flexible sleeping arrangements (the bunk room, mezzanine areas, and multiple bathrooms mean less competition during morning routines) and on-site catering options—professional chefs or babysitting services can be arranged, transforming parent stress into actual relaxation.
Groups of friends celebrating milestones—a skiing trip, a reunion, a birthday cluster around Christmas—find the layout ideal: enough separate bedrooms that couples and individuals have privacy, yet common areas engineered for group dining and entertainment. Corporate retreats and incentive trips use properties like this for team-building activities; table tennis competitions and sauna sessions break the formal meetings dynamic.
Multi-family groups with diverse interests (some skiers, some non-skiers, some hikers) appreciate the sheer range of activities accessible from this location without requiring separate accommodation coordination. One group tackles the slopes, another explores hiking routes, a third visits the weekly market and cafes—all using the same home base and reconvening for dinner.
Couples seeking alpine seclusion will find it quieter during shoulder seasons (April-May or September-October), though the property’s design caters toward groups rather than romantic intimacy—it’s architecturally optimised for scale, not cosiness.
