Just a three-minute stroll from the heart of Chamonix, Chalet Saphir combines a highly convenient location with easy access to the town’s restaurants, boutiques and ski slopes. Spanning 272 square metres of living space, this luxury ski chalet in Chamonix features five en-suite bedrooms that comfortably accommodate up to twelve guests. With the Le Savoy pistes only 300 metres away, the Brévent-La Flégère ski area is within easy reach. Situated within the exclusive Hameau des Plan, the holiday home can be booked on either a Catered or Self-Catered basis.
Traditional timber architecture blends thoughtfully with contemporary furnishings, giving the chalet a distinct character. Beneath an impressive vaulted ceiling, the airy living room centres around exposed beams, comfortable sofas and a substantial stone fireplace. Large picture windows frame the dramatic peaks surrounding the valley, while the adjoining dining area and fully equipped kitchen complete the open-plan design. Outside, the south-facing terrace provides an expansive setting with comfortable seating and uninterrupted alpine views, particularly appealing for sunny winter afternoons or warm summer days.
The five en-suite bedrooms offer flexible configurations for families or groups of friends. Four double bedrooms are located on the ground floor, each featuring a private shower room and direct access to the terrace. Tucked beneath the sloping roof above the main living area, a charming mezzanine space holds four single beds and its own shower room. This unusual layout is particularly appealing for children sharing a room, while the natural wood and understated décor preserve the authentic alpine atmosphere.
For relaxation, the outdoor hot tub is positioned to take full advantage of the dramatic scenery under the open sky, complemented indoors by a private sauna for unwinding after a day of skiing. During the warmer months, the extensive terrace serves as a peaceful spot for sunbathing and enjoying the fresh mountain air. These private wellness facilities make Chalet Saphir just as appealing for a summer escape in the French Alps as it is for a winter skiing vacation.
Practical features include a dedicated ski room with boot warmers, an internal lift, laundry facilities, bedroom air conditioning and garage parking for two vehicles. For larger gatherings, Chalet Saphir can be reserved alongside neighbouring Chalet Alaska and Chalet Azurite. Together, the three independent properties accommodate up to 41 guests, allowing extended families, friends and corporate groups to stay close while retaining their privacy during luxury ski holidays in the French Alps.

LUXURY SKI HOLIDAYS IN CHAMONIX
Majestic Mont Blanc, one of the world’s natural wonders dominates the area. Chamonix is an ancient mountain town with a stylish atmosphere and a blend of French charm, varied skiing and modern facilities that few other Alpine resorts can match. People return time after time and always discover something new.
The ski resort Chamonix with its pedestrianized cobbled streets and squares, beautiful buildings and fast running river has an excellent choice of quality shops, boutiques, cafes, bars, restaurants, clubs, casino and a Saturday market that should not be missed. Chamonix offers a wide range of outdoor activities; from skiing and snowboarding to hiking and biking, and much more.
Chamonix is also a mecca for mountaineering and climbing. The skiing resort has an attractive, bustling old town centre, and the smaller, quieter ski villages of Argentière, Les Houches and Vallorcine offer a different style of resort life.
Around 5pm, the Après-Ski starts with many options, such as the Chambre Neuf Bar, the Jekyll and Hyde pub, Bar du Moulin, La Cantina and the bar d’UP. Very popular bars are Folie Douce, Elevation 1904 where you can have cocktails, you also will find a huge selection of beers. From a culinary point of view, Chamonix is not a blank slate either. Enjoy a menu at the Atmosphere restaurant in the city centre (traditional Savoyard cuisine) or be seduced by the Italian delicacies of the Tuscan chef Auro Bucci at the L'Impossible restaurant.
The undisputed best restaurant in Chamonix is the Michelin-starred restaurant Albert 1er. We also recommend dining at restaurant Le Sérac (1 Michelin star) in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, only 13 kilometres distance to Chamonix.
