LUXURY CHALET RENTALS IN THE ALPS
WITH THE BEST SWIMMING POOLS

Experiencing a ski holiday in a luxury chalet also means taking the time to bask in the pool and spa area of your holiday residence. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, offering in some cases impressively large pools, uninterrupted views of the snowfields and surrounding mountains or some surprising new features, the most beautiful pools in ski resorts are, in themselves, real living spaces. In a previous article, we showed you the most beautiful chalets with swimming pools and spas in our Megève chalet rental portfolio. Now let’s discover the most beautiful swimming pools in our destinations throughout the Alps.

Indoor and Outdoor Swimming Pools (Megève and Val d’Isère Chalet Rentals)

You don’t always have to choose between relaxing in the pool in your exclusive chalet in Megève and the sheer pleasure of doing a few lengths beneath falling snow at dusk, with a view of the mountains. Chalet Mont-Blanc, one of the most stunning chalets in the Alps with 1,500 m² of luxury and sophistication, has two swimming pools: one indoor, the other outdoor. The perfect way to round off an exquisite day on the slopes. Also high above the village of Megève, in the highly sought-after hamlet of Mont d’Arbois, Chalet Aspen boasts a huge heated indoor pool that extends outside thanks to a low wall and a detachable bay window. The experience of being immersed in the mountains and snowfields is absolute. This feature, which is unique in the Alps, makes Chalet Aspen a truly unrivalled chalet. In Val d’Isère, the Chalet Étoile du Nord East Wing is also one of the few chalets in the Alps to offer an indoor/outdoor swimming pool using a removable bay window. Launched in 2023, it is part of the Étoile du Nord project, comprising two adjacent chalets, Étoile du Nord East Wing and Étoile du Nord West Wing. Linked by the garage and the first floor, they can be rented together or separately. Located close to the slopes and the village centre, they are among the most spacious and luxurious chalets in the resort, with the combination of these two ‘stars’ providing accommodation for up to 28 people. The swimming pool at Chalet Étoile du Nord West Wing has no outside extension, but it is original. The pool is 4 metres deep and has an underwater bay window so you can watch the bathers from the TV lounge.

Swimming Pools with Movable Floor (Megève Chalets)

Megève is renowned for its unspoilt charm and relaxed style, but equally for the high-tech and luxury features of its most beautiful chalet rentals. Some have stunning swimming pools with removable floors, enabling a room to be transformed and made watertight at the wave of a magic wand. This is the case at Chalet Magic Megève or Chalet des Sens. At nightfall, these pools can also turn your relaxation area into a huge dance floor. From private bars to home discos, you can party the night away at Chalet Jaguar on Mont d’Arbois, or Chalet Dana, reputed for its stylish interior design and proximity to the centre of Megève, where the nightlife is also in full swing.

Scenic Swimming Pools (Luxury Chalets in Megève, Val d’Isère, Verbier and Oberlech)

Chalet rentals in Megève and other Alpine resorts offer a wide range of memorable experiences. The epitome of Alpine relaxation and luxury, diving into crystal-clear water while gazing at the surrounding snow-capped peaks is just one of these memorable moments. The swimming pools in the Mont-Blanc and Ultima chalets in Megève provide breathtaking views of the Mont-Blanc massif, the highest peak in the Alps, and of Megève’s iconic peaks (Mont d’Arbois, Rochebrune, Mont Joly). Chalet Aspen stands out from the rest, while Chalet Crazy, with a whole chalet dedicated to the pool and spa area, boasts a large pool with mosaics beneath a domed ceiling and features large bay windows.

Swimming in Val d’Isère is also a truly spectacular experience: surrounded by traditional timber and stonework, the swimming pool at Chalet Ô Valala is the ideal spot from which to admire the surrounding winter wonderland. What’s more, behind the bay window you’ll find an outdoor Jacuzzi that seats 7. Chamonix’s prestigious Swiss neighbour, the resort of Verbier in the Swiss Valais, also has several luxury chalet rentals with swimming pools where you can escape and admire the magnificent scenery of the winter landscape and the unspoilt surroundings of the ski area. Chalet Dent Blanche boasts a heated indoor infinity pool, while Chalet Norte‘s beautiful pool is perfect for contemplating the landscape. Also, in our Verbier chalet rental collection, the garden level of Chalet Calima has a magnificent heated indoor swimming pool with mosaics, which gives you the impression of swimming in the open air because of the superb view. 

Stunning Basement Swimming Pools (Chalet Rentals in Megève, Courchevel 1850 and Oberlech)

Some luxury chalet rentals also stand out because of the sophisticated and imaginative design of their pool areas. With its prestigious ski-in/ski-out chalets just a stone’s throw from the countless luxury boutiques in the centre of the resort, Courchevel 1850 is naturally among the very best. The 1,500m², six-storey Chalet Le Petit Palais, rated one of the most exclusive in the Alps, devotes an entire level to its pool and spa area. A large 14x5m swimming pool adjoins a Jacuzzi and a water wall, creating the most relaxing atmosphere. A sauna, steam room, hair and beauty salon, lounge area, massage room and relaxation room combine to make up this wellness paradise. In a more traditional atmosphere, with a focus on vintage wood, the neighbouring chalet Le Petit Château also boasts a beautiful swimming pool. Another remarkable Courchevel chalet, Chalet Pearl, also has a very Alpine decor, with a swimming pool in the basement, complete with a waterfall and magnificent emerald-green natural stone. In the Nogentil district of Courchevel 1850, Chalet Le Coquelicot is the setting for an attractive 10x4m underground pool, surrounded by chic black and white marble walls. All are fully ski-in/ski-out, so you can make the most of the huge 3 Valleys ski area. Chalet Snow Cat is a new chalet rental option in Megève, launched on the market in 2023. Remarkable in more ways than one, it is just a stone’s throw from the slopes and a few minutes’ walk from the Four Seasons, in the most sought-after area of Mont d’Arbois. Its 6 rooms spanning 950m² will appeal to the most discerning guests. Upstairs is a huge living room with a cathedral ceiling and monumental fireplace, while the basement of the chalet has a magnificent 9x3m swimming pool with sunbeds, designer lighting, grey stone walls and mirrored ceiling: a stunning and peaceful setting.

And what about the swimming pool at Chalet N in Oberlech, Austria (soon available on our web site)? The bright green of its mosaics sparkles against a backdrop of old wood and local stone. Behind the bay windows, the snow-capped peaks of Vorarlberg can be seen. The huge swimming pool on the garden level is the centrepiece of a level devoted entirely to relaxation. The outstanding spa includes two outdoor Jacuzzis, two saunas, a cold-water pool, an ice fountain and a steam room, alongside relaxation areas, a massage room and a gym. In tune with this fabulous wellness area, Chalet N is the epitome of luxury, and undoubtedly the most prestigious in the Alps. Spanning 1,800m², its ten en suite bedrooms can accommodate up to 22 people. These include an incredible 180m² master bedroom with an open fire, lounge area, bar, dining room, dressing room and large bathroom. The facilities at your disposal and the services included rival those of a palace, with a wine cellar worthy of a gourmet restaurant and a plethora of staff to look after you throughout your stay, from the chef to the chauffeur, not forgetting the chalet manager, the housekeeping team and the concierge service.

Fireside Swimming Pools (Verbier and Zermatt Chalets

Relaxing in front of a roaring fire while unwinding in the pool after a long day on the slopes: some of the chalet rentals in our collection offer this unique experience. At Chalet Makini in Verbier, where the independent spa area is one of the largest in the resort, the swimming pool adjoins a lounge area with an open fire. This delightful feature can also be found elsewhere in Valais, at Chalet Kilimandjaro in Zermatt, where an ethanol fireplace adorns the pool area. Lech and Oberlech in Austria are not to be outdone in terms of prestigious chalet rentals. Chalets Arula 1 and 2 (soon available on our web site), nestling in the heights of this charming village in Vorarlberg, have designed their respective swimming pools into a haven of peace and relaxation, featuring an ethanol fireplace. They can be rented together, and in this configuration can accommodate up to 30 people comfortably occupying an area of 2,600m²: a unique concept in the Alps.
