Chalet Mottaret

Perched amidst the enchanting landscapes of Méribel, Chalet Mottaret is a mere 150 metres from the bustling heart of Méribel Center. This internationally acclaimed resort is revered for its picturesque location, architectural charm, and impeccable services, making it a haven for mountain enthusiasts. Nestled in the largest ski area globally, Les Trois Vallées, Méribel shares its glory with neighbouring valleys, Courchevel and Belleville, boasting the coveted title of the 3 Valleys.

Skiers and snowboarders will revel in the close proximity to the golf chairlift, which offers swift access to the expansive slopes at just 200m away. The rabbit trail, a stone's throw from the chalet, promises scenic descents for all skill levels, while within 3000 metres you could be at the ski school…it’s a location that caters to both seasoned enthusiasts and those eager to refine their skills.

Beyond the winter wonderland, Méribel transforms into a vast playground in the summer. From hiking and horse riding to mountain biking and golf, the options are as diverse as the landscape itself. Thrill-seekers can take to the skies with paragliding or enjoy the breathtaking scenery from a tourist plane departing from the Altiport, while water enthusiasts can explore the Méribel Olympic Park or indulge in white water activities in the surrounding rivers - there really is something for everyone.

Méribel Center, the bustling main village, is a sprawling expanse on the eastern flank, offering a plethora of accommodations, shops, and activities. The heart of this charming village beats along the Route de la Chaudanne, adorned with shops, pubs, and restaurants like L'Abreuvoir, La Taverne, Le Savoy, and La Cantine d'Alvar. The focal point, La Chaudanne, is not only a culinary delight with restaurant terraces but also the nerve centre of the ski area, where five state-of-the-art ski lifts converge. These lifts whisk skiers away to Courchevel or the Belleville valley, embracing destinations like Saint Martin de Belleville, Les Menuires, and Val Thorens.

Méribel's exceptional infrastructure, including the Olympic Park with its ice rink, swimming pool, gym, spa, and game library, alongside cutting-edge ski lifts, solidify its status as one of the world's premier ski destinations. Chalet Mottaret, with its proximity to these attractions, ensures an unforgettable alpine retreat, blending luxury with the allure of Méribel's mountainous wonders.

Méribel is a village with a true alpine heart. You won’t find blocks of hotels and purpose-built facilities here. Instead, the compact and lively town centre is picture-postcard perfect, and its atmosphere is quaint and fairytale-like. It is without a doubt the most romantic resort in the area and if you’re planning a couples holiday in the snow you’ll definitely want to take a closer look at Méribel. 

At the centre of the world famous Trois Vallées (Three Valleys), Méribel makes up part of the largest ski domain in the world. Across the valleys, it has six sister resorts. You can either get a single-resort lift pass and keep to the fantastic beginner and intermediate terrain there, but you also have the option of purchasing a pass that covers the whole area. 

The advanced lift system at Méribel will let you maximise your time on the snow and make sure you’re not waiting around in queues. With 67 runs to try out just in the resort itself, there is no time to be wasted. Just beware of the afternoon sun cutting things short on the west-facing slopes and prepare to get up with the sun if you’re after untouched powder. At it’s highest skiing point Méribel reaches an altitude of 2952 metres and the descent from this point is known to be one of the most scenic runs around.

Aside from the world-class skiing, Méribel is also known to be one of the liveliest resorts in the Three Valleys. Many of its residents and bar-owners (as well as plenty of its visitors) are expat-Brits who certainly know how to party. The après-ski scene here is truly top-notch!
