Nestled amidst the breathtaking beauty of the French Alps, this charming chalet promises an unforgettable holiday experience that combines luxury, comfort, and unparalleled natural surroundings.
As you approach Chalet Mardinian, you'll be captivated by its traditional Alpine architecture, adorned with charming wooden accents and surrounded by fairytale-like snow-capped peaks. Stepping inside, you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, with rustic yet elegant furnishings that perfectly blend authenticity and modernity.
Spread across three levels, Chalet Mardinian offers ample space for you and your loved ones to relax and unwind. The spacious living area is a haven of comfort, featuring soft, comfortable sofas, a crackling wood fireplace, and large patio windows that lead onto a cosy outdoor terrace with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. This is the perfect spot to gather with friends and family, share stories of your day's adventures and play board games, or simply curl up with a good book and a hot cup of cocoa.
To the rear of the living space, the chalet boasts a fully equipped kitchen, where you can channel your inner chef and whip up delicious meals using the finest local ingredients. Once finished, you can enjoy your culinary creations around the generous dining table which provides a delightful setting for memorable evenings spent together while the snow falls outside.
A separate TV lounge is located on the lower levels with additional seating and a Netflix-enabled flat-screen TV allowing you to keep up with your favourite shows while away.
After a day on the slopes, retreat to one of the four luxurious bedrooms on offer, each tastefully decorated with alpine-inspired touches. Three bedrooms offer double beds and access to a private en-suite bathroom while the fourth is ideal for children with four cabin-style bunk beds and access to a communal bathroom.
For those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation between activities, Chalet Mardinian offers a private spa area that is second to none. Immerse yourself in the soothing warmth of the sauna after a long day on the slopes within an oasis of serenity designed to melt away any remaining tension and leave you feeling refreshed and revitalised.
The chalet is available year-round, but facilities, property and local amenities may vary depending upon season.

The Resort
Picturesque St Martin de Belleville is the gateway to the Trois Vallées ski system, and what you might call the quiet little brother of the famous ski family. Not much goes on at this resort except for high-quality snow sports, and that’s just the way we like it. St Martin remains an old Savoyard village with a majestic church tower at its centre and more locals than tourists. Its charm lies in small-scale excellence and a well-kept sense that you are not staying at a ski resort but in an old alpine community. Life here is slow-paced, relaxed and quintessentially French.
This family resort is excellent for beginner and intermediate skiers and snowboarders. Across the 78 slopes, the best runs are long, rolling, and just the right degree of challenging. In the winters you are pretty much guaranteed good snow coverage due to the close proximity to Val Thorens, but because of the relatively low altitude of St Martin village, you might want to rethink a late-season even though pistes stay open until April. Sailing down the slopes of St Martin de Belleville you’ll get familiar with some seriously attractive views and gorgeous wooded landscapes. Overall there are 1448 metres of downhill skiing available and on top of that you can, of course, gain access to the rest of the Three Valleys system.
Fair warning, St Martin is not the place to go for parties. If its après-ski you’re after, then you’re better off staying in neighbouring Méribel. There are a few bars around town, but no real nightclubs. Instead, spend the evening at one of the many top-notch restaurants as the village is known for its gourmet cuisine (including the triple Michelin starred La Bouitte). Although it is a small town, there is a lot of variety when it comes to food. But before heading to your restaurant, make sure to catch one of the après-ski concerts held in the town church.
