Situated in the authentic Savoyard village of Les Bois, 2 km north of Chamonix, Chalet Bibendum is a tastefully renovated holiday home where the comfort of a luxury hotel service meets the magic of a bygone time.

Open all year round, the chalet is run by the owners – Jolanda & Olaf, two sophisticated travelers who combine the pleasure of living in such a spectacular location with the struggle of teaching others the art of “living like a local” in a luxury, comfortable way.

Everything started from a need of sharing with the world their own experiences and passion, so they ventured in picking up one of the oldest farmhouses in the area and transform it in a unique home away from home.

The Chalet

The spacious chalet enjoys a beautiful sunny exposure, providing visitors the opportunity of soaking up the dramatic sights of Mont Blanc. Everything, from the 8 meters high panoramic windows, the balcony as well as the lovely garden are designed to deliver a one-of-a-kind experience of 360-degree breathtaking views. It is like living in a post card!

Boasting four en-suite bedrooms and an expansive living area divided in two by a fireplace, the chalet suits perfectly 8 guests. Both, the fully equipped open-plan kitchen, as well as the dining area provide incredible views.

What better way of ending an enjoyable day in the mountains, than chilling out in a hot tub; relax in a sauna or curling up into a comfortable sofa? Well, Chalet Bibendum prides itself of featuring an amazing sauna and an outdoor wood-fired Jacuzzi where visitors can pamper themselves in a wonderful setting surrounded by incredible views and fresh mountain air.

In order to provide an even more enjoyable stay, the chalet comes with a great range of entertaining options such as: Wi-Fi network for Internet access, Apple TV, Sky, videos and a music system, iMac, printer, and good old fashioned board games.

Among the multitude of quality amenities, tourists will be treat with L’Occitane bath & shower products, wood for the fireplace, BBQ and fresh flowers upon arriving.
