The 10 Best Luxury Chalets in Megève

Ten exceptional chalets in Megève, chosen for their architecture, their wellness spaces and their mountain views.

Updated 11 November 2026

Megève, a village before a resort

Megève is nothing like a purpose-built resort: it is a mountain village that lives all year round, a market town ringed by seventeen hamlets, at an average altitude of 1113m. In the centre, cobbled lanes lead to the square of the church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste, and horse-drawn carriages cross the village at walking pace. Our ten chalets sit between 1099m and 1313m, from the heart of the village to the heights of Mont d'Arbois and Princesse.

Everything changed during the First World War. Baroness Noémie de Rothschild was looking for a French site that could rival St. Moritz; on the advice of her ski instructor, she settled on the alpine pastures of Mont d'Arbois. The Palace des Neiges opened in 1921, a golf course followed in 1923, and in 1926 she entrusted her chalet to a young architect, Henry Jacques Le Même, who would go on to design more than 200 chalets in Megève.

On 10 December 1933, a red cabin rose towards the summit of Rochebrune: it was the first cable car in France built for skiers. Today Rochebrune, the Cote 2000 and Mont d'Arbois open onto a ski area of some 400km of slopes according to the operator, linked to Saint-Gervais and Saint-Nicolas-de-Véroce, facing the Mont-Blanc massif.

Our agents have chosen ten chalets in the spirit of the village: in the heart of Megève, on the slopes of Mont d'Arbois and Rochebrune, or in the quiet of Princesse, facing the mountains.

The journey begins in Princesse, on a high slope, where Megève turns into a landscape of hamlets and snowy meadows.

Chalet DarbailletsThe valley at its feet, in Princesse

Discover the chalet

Snow on the roofs, and the whole valley below.

In Princesse, on a high slope, the chalet looks out over the valley and straight across to the peaks. People come here for the calm rather than the bustle of the village. The light shifts through the day, and in the evening everyone gathers in the sitting room around the fireplace; most of the bedrooms open onto a terrace or balcony facing the valley. A whole wing is given over to relaxation, with an indoor pool, a private cinema, a bar and a wine cellar.

The living room revolves around a central fireplace, flowing into the dining room and a kitchen made for entertaining. After skiing, a hammam, an indoor hot tub and a massage room; in the evening, a private cinema. Six bedrooms, each with its own shower room, including a bunk room for the children.
