Family Chalets and Apartments in Courchevel
Room for the whole family: four bedrooms or more, eight guests or more. What each house has for small children is on its own file. Ski school and kindergarten differ from one village to the next: the ESF nursery in Courchevel 1850 takes children from 18 months, and ski lessons start at age 3. Kindergarten and nursery options are compared village by village in our guide.
Room for Family Holidays
This selection is built on room and capacity, the two things the catalogue records for every house: four bedrooms or more, eight guests or more. Everything below is what we arrange around that, and it is worth asking property by property rather than assuming it comes with the category.
Four bedrooms or more, which is one half of what this page selects on
Eight guests or more, which is the other half
Childminders and nannies arranged on request, with two to three days notice in peak weeks
Ski school booked with the ESF from age 3, and an ESF nursery from 18 months in Courchevel 1850
Game rooms, bunk beds, baby cots and high chairs appear on a property's file where the owner lists them, so we check them house by house on your shortlist, and ask the owner where the file says nothing

Choosing a Family Chalet in Courchevel: Near the Ski School and Kindergarten
The best family chalets in Courchevel are the ones where parents can relax. That means a games room that actually holds the children's attention, a layout where younger kids can be in bed while adults have dinner, and enough bathrooms that mornings are not a logistical crisis.
Proximity to ski school matters more for families than any other guest type. Chalets within walking distance of the ESF meeting point in Courchevel 1850 save time every morning; the distance to the ski school is on the property file where it is recorded. In Courchevel 1650, ESF Moriond offers a Club Piou Piou for young children.
For families with children under 6, Courchevel 1650 is often the better choice. The nursery slopes are genuinely gentle, the village pace is slower, and Aquamotion, the resort's covered pool complex, is walking distance from most properties.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age is Courchevel suitable for children?
From 18 months, the ESF nursery in Courchevel 1850 looks after children, without ski lessons; ski lessons start at 3 with the ESF Club Piou Piou. Teenagers find the Three Valleys terrain endlessly varied. Courchevel works for all ages, the question is which village suits your youngest child best.
Are family chalets safe for young children?
The catalogue does not record safety equipment such as stair gates or balcony enclosures, so this page cannot answer it for you. Ask about them, and about where the children sleep, for each house on your shortlist; we put those questions to the owner.
Which is better for families: Courchevel 1850 or 1650?
For families with teenagers or strong skiers, 1850 gives direct access to more challenging terrain. For families with young children or beginners, 1650 is quieter, the slopes are gentler, and it costs far less: on our own catalogue on 25 September 2026, taking each property's median winter week and holding the service standard equal, a Comfort self-catered chalet in Courchevel Moriond ran 37% below the same standard in Courchevel 1850 (6 properties against 8), a Comfort self-catered apartment 57% below (11 against 22), and an Essential self-catered apartment 45% below (46 against 24).
Can the concierge arrange childcare in Courchevel?
Yes. We arrange qualified childminders or nannies for evenings, allowing parents to dine out. Advance notice of 48-72 hours is recommended during peak weeks.
