Luxury Chalet Rentals in Courchevel 1850

Our collection of luxury chalet rentals in Courchevel 1850 represents the finest properties available in this exclusive resort. From grand chalets with private staff and wellness facilities to elegant ski-in ski-out apartments, each property has been carefully selected to meet the expectations of the most demanding international guests.

Ski Access: the Real Reason People Choose 1850

Picture this: you click into your bindings at the chalet door, push off, and you are on a groomed piste. No bus, no car, no waiting. That is the number-one advantage of staying in Courchevel 1850, and it is one that guests rarely fully appreciate until they experience it.

The resort was built around the mountain, not beside it. Every level of skier benefits: beginners have gentle runs right in the village, intermediates can cover the entire Three Valleys without retracing a run, and experts drop into the couloirs above the Saulire at 2,738m. You never need to get in a car during your entire stay.

Shops, restaurants, ski hire: everything is either on the pistes or a short ski traverse away. It sounds simple, but it changes the rhythm of a ski holiday entirely.

An Ultra-Luxury Resort by Design

The town council made a deliberate choice decades ago: position Courchevel 1850 at the very top of the luxury market, and protect that positioning. It worked. The result is a resort where the quality of service across hotels, restaurants, and shops is consistently high, and the infrastructure exists to support the most demanding guests.

One thing that surprises first-time visitors: how good the overall experience is regardless of what they came for. Whether skiing, eating, shopping, or simply walking through the village, the standard is noticeably above other alpine resorts.

Shopping: the Avenue Montaigne of the Alps

The comparison insiders use for the main shopping street in 1850 is the Avenue Montaigne in Paris. It is not an exaggeration. Chanel, Dior, Hermès, Prada, Louis Vuitton all have boutiques within a few minutes' walk of each other in the village centre.

If you plan to shop during your ski week, build in a morning. The boutiques here are full-format stores, not airport-style concessions. Staff know their clients.

Nightlife: it Starts Late and Runs Later

Courchevel 1850 nights do not follow normal restaurant hours. Most serious dinners begin around 9:30 or 10pm, and kitchens are ready for it. La Ferme Saint Amour, La Mangeoire, Kinogawa and Sumo all run second sittings deep into the night, long after most resorts have closed their kitchens.

The focal point for après-ski is La Saulire, on the Tremplin terrace, open every evening with a DJ. It fills up from around 6pm and transitions into a proper bar night. For a resort of its scale, the nightlife is more concentrated and more consistent than people expect.

The Honest Part: the Prices

There is no point glossing over it. Courchevel 1850 is expensive, and the gap between here and other resorts is real. A round of drinks at a bar on the Croisette, a dinner for four at a mid-range restaurant, a week in a good chalet during half-term: the numbers stop a lot of people.

That is not a flaw in the product. It is the cost of the positioning. The town invested in exclusivity, and prices reflect that. If the budget fits, the experience is hard to match anywhere in the Alps. If it does not, Courchevel 1650 offers the same mountain with more realistic price points.

Dining and Wellbeing

Beyond the Michelin restaurants, our ultra-luxury chalets feature private spas, indoor pools, and wellness facilities. Our concierge services can arrange everything from private chefs to helicopter transfers, ski guides to spa treatments, taking care of every detail before you arrive.
