CHALETS ALPAGA - MEGEVE
LOCATION
L’Alpaga (formerly known as the "Hamlet of Mavarin") is situated in the heart of the Alps. At 1,100 metres, this hamlet offers breathtaking views over Mont Blanc. The ski season runs from Christmas through to Easter.
Renowned for its prestigious guests who have stayed there since 1910 and for its beautiful ski resort, Megeve is a picturesque village perched between 1,000 and 2,500 metres. South-facing, the hotel and chalets overlook the entire Val d’Arly.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The six wooden chalets, each built over three floors, are all named after mountain guides. They blend seamlessly into the countryside whilst still offering living space with all modern comforts. The large south-facing balconies invite guests to sunbathe. Each chalet consists of a contemporary living space coupled with traditional details: wooden roof shingles, exposed beams, carved wooden balconies and wooden chimney stacks.
The chalet Gaspard comprises four two-bedroom apartments suitable for families or friends wanting to enjoy the comfort of a chalet in a more intimate space.
The 22 bedroom hotel, opposite the six chalets, accommodates the lobby and bar, a restaurant with sun terrace, and a superb spa with a dark stone swimming pool, two treatment booths and a fitness suite.
