The combination of elevation, ski access and exclusivity makes Jardin Alpin the benchmark address in the French Alps.
Ski access here is as direct as it gets in Courchevel. Guests can leave the chalet on skis, cross directly onto the Verdons or Creux piste, and reach the Three Valleys network within minutes. Return is equally direct — no shuttle, no waiting, no compromise.
Chalets in Jardin Alpin are typically large, purpose-built for the rental market, and equipped to the standard that guests at this price point expect: heated pools, cinema rooms, spa facilities, professional kitchens and full staff accommodation.
