Framed by the peaks of the Portes du Soleil and the alpine serenity of Montriond village, Chalet Grand-Duc offers an elegant escape for up to twelve guests. This five-bedroom chalet pairs sweeping mountain views with understated luxury, creating a refined retreat within minutes of Morzine and the Ardent cable car to Avoriaz.

Crafted in traditional timber and softened by warm, natural textures, the interiors balance alpine character with contemporary design. The open-plan living area is a social hub, where sunlight spills into the dining space and a sleek kitchen with a large island sets the tone for shared meals. Curl up on the vast corner sofa beside the fire, sip cocktails at the bar, or settle into the reading nook before movie night on the 110-inch cinema screen.

Outside, the pace slows. Mornings begin with coffee on the terrace as the sun climbs over the valley. Children can explore the garden and play area while grown-ups take to the pétanque court or enjoy a game of table tennis. After a day in the mountains, unwind in the jacuzzi or gather around the fire pit beneath a sky full of stars.

Each bedroom offers a peaceful sanctuary with mountain views, natural wood beams and soft neutral tones. The master suite, Roc d’Enfer, opens onto a wide balcony and features a statement bathroom with walk-in shower and freestanding tub. Lindarets, on the main floor, is a stylish en-suite double, while the lower level includes three more bedrooms: a charming bunk room for four, a flexible twin or king-size room, and a queen-size double with its own bathroom and terrace access.

With thoughtful touches at every turn, from EV charging to family-friendly amenities, Chalet Grand-Duc is a place to reconnect, recharge and embrace the alpine rhythm of life.

The chalet is available year-round, but facilities, property and local amenities may vary depending upon season.
