Courchevel 1850 Destination Guide
There are few mountain destinations in the world that carry the reputation of Courchevel 1850.
For decades it has been the winter playground of royalty, international business leaders, Middle Eastern families, the Parisian elite, South of France society and those who appreciate exceptional service, remarkable homes and the finest experiences the Alps have to offer. It is a place where private jets arrive throughout the season, Michelin-starred restaurants outnumber any other ski resort in the Alps, and every detail is designed around comfort, privacy and impeccable hospitality.
Yet Courchevel’s reputation is built on far more than glamour.
Positioned at the highest point of the Courchevel villages, it offers effortless access to Les Trois Vallées, the largest linked ski area in the world. More than 600 kilometres of beautifully maintained pistes provide something for every level of skier, from wide beginner slopes and outstanding ski schools to long cruising runs and challenging off-piste terrain with experienced mountain guides.
What to Expect
Life in Courchevel follows its own rhythm. Mornings begin with perfectly prepared pistes, afternoons drift into long mountain lunches on sun-drenched terraces, and evenings are spent in beautiful private chalets, exceptional restaurants or elegant bars where service is every bit as memorable as the surroundings.
Courchevel is not a destination that tries to appeal to everyone. It never has. Guests choose Courchevel because they are looking for something exceptional. They expect outstanding service, complete privacy and access to some of the finest chalets, hotels and restaurants in the Alps. For those seeking one of the world’s great winter destinations, there are very few places that compare.

Why We Love Courchevel
What we admire most about Courchevel isn’t simply its luxury—it’s the confidence with which it delivers it.
Everything seems to happen effortlessly. The finest chalets are discreet rather than ostentatious, outstanding service feels natural rather than rehearsed, and every restaurant, boutique and hotel understands exactly why its guests have chosen to be there.
We also love that Courchevel never tries to justify its reputation. It simply gets on with delivering it. Whether you’re spending the afternoon enjoying a long lunch overlooking the mountains, returning to a beautifully run chalet where every detail has already been taken care of, or dining in one of the Alps’ finest restaurants, the experience feels seamless from beginning to end.
Courchevel knows exactly what it is. It isn’t trying to be the most authentic or the most affordable resort in the Alps. It is unapologetically refined, and for those looking for one of the world’s finest winter destinations, that is precisely its appeal.
