Chalet Abade

Awarded the title of World’s Best New Ski Chalet in 2022, Chalet Abade is a breathtaking luxury alpine retreat that masterfully combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design and comfort. Located in an exceptional ski-in, ski-out position in Val-d’Isère, this newly renovated chalet is a stunning sanctuary for up to 12 guests, offering an unmatched blend of elegance and practicality.

The chalet spans three floors, featuring five beautifully designed bedrooms. Renovated by the internationally acclaimed interior design firm Turner Pocock, Chalet Abade is both luxurious and inviting, making it the perfect winter retreat for large families or groups of friends seeking sophistication and relaxation in an idyllic alpine setting.

Situated directly on the piste, the chalet offers unparalleled access to the Olympique and Solaise ski lifts, allowing guests to step out and ski with ease. From the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows in the living area, guests can recline on the plush velvet chaise lounge and watch skiers glide by against the backdrop of snow-covered mountains. For moments off the slopes, the chalet is conveniently located just a five-minute drive from the village center and only a minute’s ski from the main lift station hub of Val-d’Isère, making it an ideal base for exploring both the slopes and the vibrant village life.

The ground floor of the chalet welcomes guests with a well-equipped ski and boot room, complete with heated boot warmers to ensure comfort before a day on the slopes. Three of the five bedrooms are located on this level, including two twin or double rooms with en-suite shower rooms featuring sensor-activated lighting for a touch of modern convenience. The third bedroom is a spacious quad bunk room with an en-suite bathroom adorned with stunning patterned tiles and sleek finishes, making it a perfect choice for families. This floor also houses a luxurious hammam, a rain shower, and a tranquil massage room, offering a private space to unwind and rejuvenate. A large laundry room is discreetly tucked away off the corridor for added practicality.

The first floor of Chalet Abade is dedicated to entertainment and relaxation. The living area, with its soaring double-height ceiling, exposed wooden beams, and grand fireplace, is a showpiece of the chalet’s design. A striking chandelier adds to the wow factor of the space, while two sumptuous sofas positioned back-to-back create distinct areas for enjoying the warmth of the fire or engaging in board games, quiet reading, or an afternoon tea. Natural light floods the room through expansive windows that frame breathtaking views of the piste and the surrounding mountains.

Adjacent to the living area, the dining space is an elegant setting for shared meals, featuring stylish wishbone chairs and its own open fireplace for added ambiance. Discreet Sonos speakers are seamlessly integrated throughout the floor, allowing guests to set the perfect tone for any occasion. Off the dining area, the state-of-the-art kitchen offers modern amenities and opens onto a balcony furnished with a table and chairs, making it an inviting spot for sunlit lunches. Outside, the hot tub provides a soothing retreat for tired limbs, surrounded by the serene majesty of the alpine landscape. For quieter moments, a cozy TV room with soft lighting, a plush sofa, and warm, dark tones offers a perfect space for family movie nights. The chalet is equipped with the latest technology, including high-speed fiber-optic Wi-Fi, Netflix, and Apple TV. A guest WC is also located on this floor for added convenience.

The top floor is dedicated to two impressive master bedroom suites, each offering a haven of tranquility and sophistication. The first master suite includes an en-suite bathroom with a separate shower and boasts a private balcony that provides stunning views of the mountains. The second master suite also features an en-suite bathroom with a separate shower and WC. Both bedrooms are thoughtfully designed with a focus on luxurious comfort, incorporating warm, sophisticated interiors, soft sensor-activated lighting, and ample built-in storage to ensure a restful and indulgent experience.

Chalet Abade is the ultimate alpine retreat, offering a harmonious balance of luxury, comfort, and convenience. Whether relaxing in the hot tub, lounging by the fire, or stepping directly onto the slopes, this exceptional chalet provides an unforgettable experience in the heart of Val-d’Isère.
