Insider tips to the best Chalets in Switzerland

Swiss ski resorts have won the reputation of being incredibly quaint and picturesque and it’s understandable why. The jaw-dropping alpine scenery, the chocolate box villages, traditional red trains and romantic luxury Swiss chalets will leave you with memories that will last a lifetime.

With so many luxury chalets on offer across the country, we have picked some of our favourites for you to book for your next luxury ski holiday.

WHICH LUXURY CHALETS IN SWITZERLAND ARE GOOD FOR FAMILIES?

We know that skiing is one of the world’s greatest ways to make lasting memories with your kids, but finding the perfect family-friendly luxury ski chalet can be overwhelming.  There are a number of luxury Swiss ski chalets, which are perfect for a family ski holiday.

Children will love Chalet Makini’s private pool, perfect for splashing around in and burning off any leftover energy. The cinema room is ideal for nestling down pre-bedtime for a movie. The all-day in-resort driver will whisk kids to and from the slopes for lessons or into town for a hot chocolate – it really is a great family-friendly chalet. 

Calima is a truly world-class chalet in Verbier, and is great for families. Kids will love the indoor swimming pool, which has an adjustable floor, so you can choose the depth that suits you, a fantastic facility for young children. After they have burnt off any excess energy in the pool, the kids can settle in front of a film in the cinema room while the parents enjoy drinks in the lounge.

Chalet White Pearl in Zermatt has everyone for a fantastic family ski holiday. From a large swimming pool and outdoor jacuzzi to a cinema room with a pool table and ping pong, there is something for everyone. Older kids will love the Nintendo Wii and extensive DVD library.  

Chalet Grace in Zermatt is a magnet for families. Child friendly, this luxury ski chalet has bags of room for exploring, whether taking full advantage of all the high-tech entertainment in the cinema room, to setting up your favourite board games, to playing hide and seek. Take a splash around in the hot tub, followed by some downtime in the star-lit relaxation area before bedtime. Children’s tea can be prepared early and extra care is taken on pre-planning menus for even the fussiest eater.

WHICH LUXURY CHALETS IN SWITZERLAND ARE GOOD FOR CELEBRATIONS?

Celebrations don’t get any better than within your own luxury ski chalet in Switzerland! Whether you are wanting a private bar, a wine cellar, an outdoor hot tub for apres-ski drinks or an impressive games room, luxury ski chalets in Switzerland are the perfect place for a party.

Selected by the London Times as one of the ‘20 coolest chalets in the Alps for two years running, Heinz Julen Loft is truly spectacular and certainly has the WOW factor! It is made for partying with a B&O music system, a grand piano, a dance floor and an internal Jacuzzi bath on the living room mezzanine floor, plus incredible views of the village.

Accessed via a private funicular railway through the mountain, Chalet Maurice delivers on all counts. An utterly gorgeous super luxury ski chalet with bags of Scandinavian style and unrivalled service – we’re talking food of 3* Michelin standard. The wow factor continues with a large outdoor jacuzzi hot tub with a view of the famous Matterhorn mountain, and its own private wellness area.

The grand dame of Verbier chalets, at 900m2, Chalet Chouqui is infinite in views and grandeur and having seen this super stylish and sophisticated luxurious chalet, it’s brilliant for groups of friends or family as it sleeps a whopping 16-20 in 9 bedrooms.

For those looking for a large chalet, look no further than the luxury Bella Coola Estate. Comprising two chalets, this luxury property in Verbier is perfect for groups and families. And with an ideal location, set back from the road on Chemin de Clambin in the heart of Verbier, you can see why this is one of our guest’s favourite chalets.  Want to do something a little special? The hosts can prepare drinks at either of the two bars for you to enjoy or have pre-dinner drinks on the spacious terraces while you take in the spectacular mountain views and watch the sunset over Verbier.
