Luxury and what makes something luxurious, has certainly evolved over time. For many, luxury comes with a story. Val d’Isere is certainly no stranger to a story. One that turned a small farming hamlet down a perilous track into one of the world’s finest luxury ski resorts. Despite being at the cutting edge of luxury, Val d’Isere has skillfully retained its heritage, provenance and tradition.

Luxury has been redefined in recent years, with a greater emphasis being placed on experiences, curiosity and time. We are lucky then that Val d’Isere’s luxury ski chalets have managed to retain so much history and charm from the days of the Isère Valley being just that, a lush and verdant valley. There is a constant quest for luxury providing the rare and the unique. It is fortunate that this luxury ski resort can indeed provide just that. One shining example is Domain de Toit du Monde. Built originally as a monastery in Val d’Isere in 1682, one of the oldest and rarest buildings in the Alps can now also claim to be one of the must luxurious ski chalets around. 

If a nod to the farming past fits your luxurious lifestyle better, then let La Bergerie create the most perfect days of the year for you. Dating back to the 17th century, I doubt the then inhabitants of this shepherd’s hut would never in their wildest dreams have imaged the shrine to luxury that it’s now become. 

From entire monasteries and shepherd’s huts to gnarly beams now more used to surround sound than scythes, the evolution of Val d’Isere is clear. It’s this continual evolution that has ensured Val d’Isere remains at the cutting edge of the luxury ski chalet market. It’s clear that what separates true luxury from the idea of luxury is quality. Quality drives luxury consumption. Val d’Isere and its luxury ski chalets know this. Quality that provides a desirable luxury experience will ensure that your dreams are met. At SkiBoutique we are here to do just that. As your friends in high places, we strive to find your perfect luxury ski chalet and we know just the luxury ski resort where you can find it.
