Summit Starlight

This chalet is built for large groups seeking a sophisticated stay in the mountains. Inside, a gas fireplace is the heart of the main living area, a temperature-controlled wine room elevates the après-ski experience, and an array of en-suite bedrooms ensures everyone has their own space. When you want to come together, the dining room is perfect for long, lazy dinners – all backdropped by frost-capped peaks. Outside, the hot tub on the wrap-around deck boasts views that stretch across the valley – it's the kind of setting that makes it hard to leave. When you do want to hit the slopes, you'll find walk-to-ski access to the resort's gondolas right on your doorstep.

Home truths:
* The sixth bedroom sleeps eight people. It has a regular bunk bed and two single-over-double bunks. We think it's more comfortable for children.
* The walk-to-ski convenience depends on snow conditions and individual ability. We recommend checking current conditions with your host before planning your first day on the mountain.
* Wi-fi is available here, but the mountain location means the signal can be patchy at times. If you're planning to work remotely or stream during your stay, it's worth having a backup plan.
* You have a private garage here, which makes coming and going in snowy or icy conditions much more straightforward. 4X4 vehicles and/or snow chains are recommended for travel in snow and winter weather conditions.
* The lead guest must be at least 25 years old.
