The 5 Best Luxury Chalets in Val Thorens

Four chalets and an exceptional apartment in Val Thorens, chosen for their pools and spas, their access to the slopes and their views over the peaks of the Belleville valley.

Updated 13 November 2026

Val Thorens, at the very top of the 3 Vallées

Perched at 2300m at the head of the Belleville valley, Val Thorens bills itself as "the highest resort in Europe". According to the tourist office, 99% of its ski area lies above 2000m: this is where the season begins, from late November, and where it ends, in early May.

Above the resort, the Cime Caron cable car climbs to 3200m, and the Péclet glacier draws out the winter. Val Thorens is also where the Funitel was born, invented in 1990 by the resort's lift company. From the village you reach the 3 Vallées and their 600km of linked slopes: head off in the morning towards Méribel over the Col de la Chambre, push on to Courchevel, and ski back home in the evening.

The resort is compact and car-free: Les Balcons above the village, Plein Sud turned towards the light, the lively heart around the Grande Rue, and Péclet at the foot of the glacier. To compare Val Thorens with its neighbours, see which resort to choose in the 3 Vallées.

Our agents have chosen four large chalets, from 320m² to 340m², and a 173m² single-level apartment, all with direct access to the slopes.

In the evening, guests gather upstairs around a prestigious wine collection, and the house chef composes the pairings for dinner. This ski-in, ski-out chalet looks out over the mountain range and the resort. On the ground floor, the wellness area brings together a pool, a sauna, a hammam and a massage room, with a gym; a cinema room and a games room with a simulator draw out the evenings, followed by a smoking room and a terrace. Five bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and a team that looks after the welcome, breakfasts, dinners and afternoon tea.
