Luxury Chalets Courchevel Moriond:
Premium Ski-In/Ski-Out & 5-Star Alpine Rentals (2026)

Courchevel is the crown jewel of the French Alps, synonymous with ultra-luxury skiing, Michelin-starred dining, and exclusive alpine living. Within this prestigious resort, Courchevel Moriond (also known as Courchevel 1650) offers the perfect blend of accessibility, authentic mountain charm, and world-class skiing – all at a slightly more approachable price point than Courchevel 1850.

Renting a luxury chalet in Courchevel Moriond provides the ultimate French Alps experience: ski-in/ski-out convenience, private wellness facilities, gourmet catering, and impeccable service in one of the world’s most glamorous ski destinations.

Why Choose Courchevel Moriond (1650)?

Courchevel is divided into five villages at different altitudes: Le Praz (1300), Village (1550), Moriond (1650), 1850, and Le Hameau (1850+). Each offers a distinct experience.

Why Moriond Stands Out:

More Accessible Luxury:

• 20-30% less expensive than Courchevel 1850

• Still extremely high-end, just not “billionaire-level”

• Better value without sacrificing quality

Authentic Alpine Charm:

• Traditional Savoyard village atmosphere

• Less ostentatious than 1850

• Family-friendly and welcoming

Excellent Ski Access:

• Direct access to Courchevel slopes and Les 3 Vallées

• Ski-in/ski-out chalets available

• Less crowded lifts than 1850

• Quick connection to entire Courchevel network

Family-Friendly:

• Excellent ski school

• Beginner-friendly slopes

• Family-oriented restaurants and activities

• Relaxed, less “scene-y” vibe

Convenience:

• Supermarkets, bakeries, and shops

• More practical for self-catered chalets

• Local atmosphere
