Editor's Review
Nestled in the hamlet of Les Rives d’Argentiere Chalet Cristal is on the banks of the River Arge and faces south towards the great Mont Blanc. Part of a stylish set of Chalets, you have full use of the shared fitness suite with gym, sauna and steam room, a large cinema and library. If you are after a little privacy then this chalet has a beautiful hot tub on the private terrace and space for you all to spread out inside.
Overview
Sleeping up to 8 + 5 guests, the stunning Chalet Cristal is the perfect alpine escape. In the evening spend time relaxing around the fire before supper or perhaps you’ll be curled up with a book on the reading mezzanine. The mood within is cool, fresh but still cosy – lots of the traditional wood mixed with muted tones and crisp linens and cosy blankets.
This chalet is minimalist in style, with no fuss, clean lines and crisp furnishings. The huge floor to ceiling window means you can take in the surrounding views whilst you nestle yourself in the deep comfortable sofas.
During your stay, you have your own private hot tub to enjoy, ideal for relaxing in after a day on the slopes. The shared facilities available make it feel like a boutique private hotel, from the library complete with magazines, art books and a mix of bestsellers, to the cinema suitable for a private viewing of your favourite movie. Perhaps you’ll want to spend more time in the fitness suite – whatever it is the staff here will be sure to be on hand to help.
Chalet Cristal is self-catered, but there is the option to add on catering. Whether you want a more relaxed dining experience with evening meals delivered or the full ‘VIP Catering’ package, you can choose the style you want. And if you want to add on an in-resort driver service, just let us know.
With the other chalets being bookable together you can arrange a holiday for anything from 10 to 50 here.
