Chalet La Varappe

From the moment you step into Chalet La Varappe, it’s clear you’ve arrived somewhere truly special. Originally built by Mr. Pomagalski, founder of the world-renowned “Poma” company, the chalet’s interiors are clad with timber cleared during the construction of Méribel’s first lift system. Once a private family home, it now welcomes guests with the same warmth, character, and refinement of a cherished country retreat.

This stand-alone property combines alpine charm with English elegance, offering delightful terraces, a peaceful garden, and panoramic mountain views. It accommodates up to 10 guests in supreme comfort across five individually designed en-suite bedrooms—each with its own character, from wood-clad walls to romantic four-posters. A spacious attic room provides a cosy hideaway for children.

At the heart of the chalet lies the inviting sitting room, where plump sofas gather around a striking stone fireplace, surrounded by antiques, artworks, and a library of books. The atmosphere is both luxurious and homely, making you feel more like a treasured house guest than a visitor. A separate TV and games room offers a snug retreat for film nights or quiet relaxation.

Wellness is woven into the experience, with a cedar-wood outdoor hot tub, a steam room, and ample space to unwind after days on the slopes. The polished dining table, seating ten, sets the stage for gourmet meals prepared by your private chef, while your dedicated staff ensures every detail is taken care of. After dinner, step out onto the terrace with a glass of champagne and soak in the crisp mountain air.

Perfectly located in the centre of Méribel, just a short chauffeur-driven ride from the main lift hub, Chalet La Varappe is a haven where the best of ski style meets the warmth of an English country home. From dawn until bedtime, every comfort is thoughtfully provided—your wish truly is their command.
