Chalet Elodie
Rising seven stories above the famous Bellecote Slope in France’s Les Trois Vallées, Chalet Elodie is the largest luxury ski chalet in Europe.
Its location at 1,850 meters is considered one of the best in the world, offering direct ski-in/ski-out access to the vast Three Valleys area.
Built in 2012 after two years of careful construction, the chalet masterfully captures that inviting, classic Alpine atmosphere through its exposed wood-beamed ceilings, multiple cozy fireplaces, and natural stone accents. Yet behind this traditional charm lies every contemporary comfort and convenience you could wish for, creating spaces that feel both authentically mountain-inspired and thoroughly modern. The property’s most extraordinary and talked-about feature is undoubtedly its private nightclub, complete with a full-service bar, professional dance floor, and a breathtaking waterfall feature that cascades dramatically past the bar area into the swimming pool on the level below. This spectacular venue provides a fantastic space for hosting family celebrations and special occasions of all kinds, and The Sun Secret Collection team can work with you to organize every detail, from entertainment to a customized fine dining menu.

This professional team handles everything from the practicalities of your ski vacation, including arranging the best local ski instructors, experienced mountain guides, and reliable babysitting services, to organizing comfortable airport transfers by car or the ultimate convenience of a private helicopter. Your ski equipment will be professionally fitted, collected, and brought directly to the chalet each day, while your meals and drinks are carefully tailored to your personal preferences by talented chefs and sommeliers.
This highly personalized, comprehensive service approach allows you and your loved ones to simply relax and focus completely on what matters most: enjoying the magnificent mountain environment and creating lasting memories together in this extraordinary Alpine setting.
