Chalet Chic

Ultima Megève sets the scene for a ski sojourn in the French Alps with a well-considered array of luxury touches.

At the centre of the alpine action in Haute-Savoie, Megève is a four-season ski resort that those in-the-know, seeking powder and elegant off-piste activities, gravitate towards. These insiders also know that Ultima Megève, a pair of properties conceived as not-your-typical chalets, offers guests a stylish alternative in which to spend their time in Megève. For ski enthusiasts, the nearby Mont D’arbois, Rochebrune, and Le Jaillet comprise 325 kilometres of snow-capped terrain, where one could test their snow-sports prowess.

With its location deep in the bucolic French countryside and its idyllic setting overlooking the legendary Mont Blanc, one might assume that Ultima Megève could veer towards the conventional side. But these two private chalets have been designed with both luxury and privacy in mind. Ultima Megève’s sprawling living spaces – that seem like they’re always ready for a high-fashion photoshoot at the drop of a couture hat – are perfect for hosting multi-generational families or large parties of close friends.

Designed to cater to the lifestyles of A-listers, Ultima Megève comprises an arcade room, an underground private club, and a stocked wine cellar for those in the mood for entertainment and nightlife. The chalets’ wellness amenities, on the other hand, include a gymnasium and a full spa with a hammam, a massage room, and hairdressing facilities. Exclusive treatments by expert spa therapists can also be arranged. Likewise, if guests seek beauty pampering before evenings on the town, the space is designed to seamlessly facilitate such services. Meanwhile, an indoor-outdoor pool with sweeping mountain views, an accompanying outdoor hot tub, and an indoor jacuzzi are all perfect to sink into after a busy day on the slopes.

A haven for foodies, Ultima Megève also boasts an impressive yet intimate dining room and outdoor terraces –perfect settings to impress when one is hosting, whether it be a small get-together or an elaborate party. An efficient and intuitive concierge is always on hand to arrange exceptional experiences or to make reservations at some of Megève’s most popular tables, often at a mere moment’s notice.
