Chalet Iona Méribel, France

INSIDE THE CHALET

Chalet Iona is a tranquil and luxurious retreat set within its own private orchards in the Méribel Valley. Guests are treated to breathtaking views across 13 picturesque villages, stretching toward the Vanoise National Park, with the dramatic Grand Bec rising 3,400 metres to the east. Surrounded by nature, the only sounds are birdsong, making it easy to relax and fully enjoy the peace and comfort of this exceptional chalet.

The property comprises two buildings. The main chalet, fully rebuilt in 2017 and renovated in 2024, sleeps 10 + 2 guests across two master bedrooms, a family suite, and two king bedrooms. The adjoining Chalet India provides additional accommodation for up to three guests in a mezzanine bedroom with a king-sized bed, single bed, open bath and washbasin, and a separate WC. The main chalet’s entrance opens into a grand, high-ceilinged living space with a modern open-plan kitchen, cozy seating around a suspended fireplace, and a hand-crafted oak dining table framed by east-facing panoramic windows.

A staircase leads down to an elegant sitting room with a wood-burning stove, a cinema area, reading nooks with board games, and direct access to the large jacuzzi terrace. The first master bedroom is also on this level, offering privacy and spectacular views. On the lower floor, four individually styled bedrooms—ranging from Art Deco and Biedermeier to seasonal or family-inspired designs—each feature their own bath or shower room.

Chalet India offers a flexible space ideal as a children’s playroom, a massage or yoga studio, or a private retreat for a couple or small group of friends.

Amenities include a ski room with heated boot warmers, outdoor hot tub, sauna, extensive terraces and gardens, private parking, and a range of entertainment options including Apple TV, Full UK Sky channels, a DVD library, and a Nintendo Switch. Guests also enjoy a complimentary bar of wine, beer, spirits, and soft drinks, as well as personal laundry facilities.

Chalet Iona is a 5–10 minute chauffeured drive from the nearest Olympe telecabine at Les Allues and 15–20 minutes from Méribel centre, offering the perfect combination of peace, privacy, and easy access to the slopes and village life. Whether soaking in the outdoor hot tub, relaxing on the terraces, or enjoying the cinema room, this chalet delivers an unforgettable alpine escape.
