Chalet Rikiki, Courchevel 1650

We are delighted that the owners of this fabulous chalet made a lot of important improvements to the Chalet Rikiki we all know and love last Autumn. In the lounge new sofas, new armchairs and new coffee tables have made a big difference. In the bedrooms there are new headboards and new bedside tables and in the entrance hall new benches and ski storage.

A week in Rikiki is what we believe chalet holidays are all about: great piste-side location, comfortable ensuite bedrooms and a lively atmosphere with likeminded people sharing stories around the dinner table!

Our largest chalet in Courchevel, Rikiki is close to the nursery slopes and was built to a superb modern design, giving all 12 bedrooms ensuite bathroom facilities with either bath or shower.

The double height ceiling makes the lounge and dining area bright and spacious, especially as the French windows open onto a large piste-side terrace. A large open log fireplace adds to the cosy atmosphere in the lounge.

The chalet was built - and is still owned by - a local family with the classic mix of winter time ski instructors and summertime builders. They clearly have a sense of humour too - Rikiki is enormous but in French slang it means "absolutely tiny".

To access the pistes, grab your skis from the boot room and walk up the side of the chalet, across the snow and you’ll be on the nursery slope less than a minute's ski to the main lift.

You can also ski back right onto the terrace of Rikiki and you could even get straight into the hot tub - but we'd recommend changing out of your ski gear first...

Rikiki really is the perfect Alpine chalet, which is why it is always booked so far in advance! Get in here while you can.
