Artisanal Splendor in the Exclusive Enclave of Le Crêt

There’s a minimalist hygge charm to the recently-finished Chalet Valala that draws you into its warming depths. Step from the wintery chill of snow-strewn lanes and rush towards the thawing embrace of a roaring fire – it sits at the heart of a wondrous open-plan living room that sets the alluring ambiance of this tranquil palace. It’s little wonder the chalet takes its name from Valhalla: the dwelling of the Norse Gods and a place for warriors to find peace. As you marvel at the breathtaking peaks of the Espace Killy, you’ll struggle to tear yourself away from your spacious abode – even as the panoramic mountain-scape calls your name through myriad vast glass façades.

Space to Unwind from Morning ‘til Night

There’s an art to imbuing such charming character – Valala strikes a perfect balance with open fires, candle-lit enclaves, and considered use of relaxing stone and wood finishes throughout. Drift from a capacious living space that lies beneath vaulted ceilings, and relish a pre-dinner aperitif from the in-chalet bar. Then, venture onto the balcony before retreating back indoors; nothing will set taste buds racing like the executive chef rustling up a lavish banquet. So, be seated at the 14-seater dining table – enjoying the anticipation before you indulge in a glorious feast.

Descend into a Spa Nirvana and Prepare to Unwind

The lower ground floor is a sanctuary of refuge: whether you settle in for an evening in front of the spell-binding home cinema experience – Apple TV, Netflix, and games console come as standard – or you take to the wellness area, weary muscles will be thankful for the delightful amenities. Swim a few gentle lengths, admire stunning surrounds from the outdoor Jacuzzi, or find a moment for a massage treatment and give your body a much-welcomed revitalizing kick.

Homely Comfort Amidst Snow-capped Peaks

Each of the six stunning en-suite bedrooms boasts a similar splendor, offering up to 13 guests unencumbered slumber in the midst their own peaceful abode. Stone-clad bathrooms add a touch of Scandinavian elegance, with generous showers and opulent bathtubs offering dreamed-of respite as you tumble from the fluffy powder and before seek refuge in the softness of your sheets – or a balcony awaits through double-doors for guests who wish to admire the tantalizing view one final time before sunset. The ground floor hosts four of the guest bedrooms: choose twin setups or opt for a double room, Valala is designed to cater for groups of all sizes. A fifth double bedroom sits on the top floor, neighboring the palatial master suite – one lucky couple gets reside at the apex of the chalet, imbibing unbridled panoramas of one of the most famous ski resorts in the Alps.
