Our collection boasts some of the most magnificent chalets in Megève and Magic Megève is one of them. However, Magic Megève is more than just another luxury chalet. It stands out head and shoulders in every way, particularly in terms of its accommodation capacity, its location, ultra-contemporary design and services, making it an outstanding chalet. With a surface area of 1,100 m2 and 10 bedrooms, it can host 22 people in a unique ski-in ski-out location (a rarity in Megève) and a breath-taking view. Magic Megève is not just a lavish chalet, but a series of immersive experiences taking chalet rental to a new level and dimension:
Primarily an art experience:
Art is the centrepiece of this brainchild of the owners, both lovers and collectors of contemporary art. The structural elements of this renovated farmhouse (floors, staircases, ceilings), as well as the lighting, some furniture and even most of the rooms were designed and created by renowned contemporary artists such as Jorge Pardo for the lounge bar (a combination of architecture, design, sculpture and contemporary paintings) and the staircase tiles with their vibrant colour palettes and eclectic patterns; Francesco Vezzoli, one of the most significant Italian contemporary artists, for one of the rooms designed in tribute to Jean Cocteau, a regular in Megève; Mike Nelson for the staircase that connects the three floors of the former barn, creating an impressively powerful yet simple work, and Conrad Shawcross who leaves a distinctive impression, at the frontiers of geometry, philosophy, physics and metaphysics, throughout the chalet with, among other things, the doors, the mechanical lighting of the spa and the high-tech ski room. An outstanding collection of artworks, sculptures and installations by Antony Gormley and Darren Bader, among others, complement this distinctive renovation that breaks the mould of the traditional mountain chalet.
The artistic experience extends beyond the chalet, on a plot measuring approximately 12,000 m2, in both the garden where you will find several sculptures and a library designed by Sylvie Fleury, as well as the terrace and summer kitchen also designed by Jorge Pardo.
So, you can see, everything in this chalet is unique and original and is based on the concept of “living or experiencing art” through interaction and a symphony between the works and the room functions.
Swiftly followed by multisensory immersion:
– Culinary experience: the sensory immersion kicks-off with a sophisticated gourmet proposal by Italian chef Alberto Lazzoni who trained in various star-rated restaurants and among the best chefs in the world. He will offer you high-quality Italian cuisine as well as tailor-made menus designed according to your wishes. A food truck serving Apulian specialities is also at your disposal to add an original and relaxed touch to your après-ski or snacks.
– Oenological experience: the sensory immersion is complemented by an outstanding oenological service featuring a diverse collection of prestigious wines assembled in an unconventional wine cellar where the sommelier will be delighted to conduct tasting sessions.
– Mixology experience: the floor-to-ceiling lounge bar designed by Jorge Pardo is another step in this sensory experience where you can indulge in a range of cocktails and aperitifs in an unexpected and warm setting.
– Wellbeing experience: finally the multisensory immersion is a wellbeing experience in a spa including a swimming pool, a steam room, a sauna, a massage room and the first Clever light therapy room. Thanks to its innovative technology, the Clever light, can control melanopic stimulation and simulate the circadian rhythm that our body is programmed with, to help its user reach optimal health and wellbeing. A massage therapist totally dedicated to the chalet will offer you a varied and exclusive range of treatments, at a time of your choice for their undivided attention. Among the range of treatments offered choose between relaxing and sports massage, Human Tecar physiotherapy (muscle and sleep repairing treatments as well as anti-age and anti-stress treatments, a first in chalets), rejuvenating facials, various beauty treatments, acupuncture, cryotherapy, and hairdressing treatments.
Last but not least Magic Megève offers a variety of shamanic experiences such as the bio-energetic, MIR method, quantum touch, integral therapy, soul retrieval and power animal journey.
A sporty experience:
Magic Megève immerses you in the world of skiing and mountain sports with high-performance instructors, including a former professional ski racer and national ski team coach. But Magic Megève offers also an innovative high-tech ski room known as the “Ski Clinic” (a first in a chalet, enabling you to find the equipment best suited to your level), and a mountain activities expert who will source you the best service providers in your choice of activity and organise original adventures such as “avalanche training” or a tailor-made picnic in a special location.
In addition, the chalet has a fully equipped gym with the latest equipment, supervised by a sports coach upon request. Yoga classes are also available.
More details of the full chalet services are in the Services section below.
Magic Megève can be rented in the winter and summer. The owners, who are passionate about art, do not consider it exclusive and would like it to be available to everyone, which is why they do not want to limit the renting options. Specific events will also be held that are open to the public.
In the summer, the Magic Megève concept is extended to Ibiza with Magic Ibiza and to Forte dei Marmi (Italy) with Magic Forte. Please contact us for further information or to request a brochure.
