Chalet Lapin Blanc
Sleeps up to 15 (14 + 1)
Nestled in the heart of Méribel, this ski-in, ski-out chalet is one of the most luxurious and best located in the valley.
Magnificent from the outside in, this striking chalet spans four floors and is flanked by sundrenched wraparound balconies, which boast enviable views of the Tougnète side of the mountain.
Sumptuously furnished throughout with local wood and stone and peppered with British and French aesthetic, this luxurious home from home balances spacious alpine style with much-needed comfort, making it an ideal retreat after a long day on the slopes.
The chalet’s pièce de résistance has to be its enormous sitting and dining room, which with its central open log fire strikes a dramatic first impression. The dining area easily accommodates 14 people and because the sitting room opens to the mezzanine above, the sense of space is remarkable.
For that well-deserved glass of champagne, the south facing picture windows open onto a sun terrace, and for ultimate rejuvenation, the outdoor hot tub beckons aching muscles.
Comprising seven individually decorated large king/twin rooms all with stunning en-suite bathrooms, it’s also possible to have extra beds for young children. There’s always space for a little one!
Situated at the bottom of the magnificent Georges Mauduit piste, Lapin Blanc is only seconds from Méribel’s main lift centre and ski school meeting points. For evenings out with friends, it’s just a short distance from the centre of Meribel.
Combine the chalet with the outstanding chalet service and gourmet cuisine, and you have the makings of a truly unforgettable holiday.

Location
The chalet is ski in ski out. Located on the side of the Georges Mauduit piste at the end of a private road opposite the main lifts of Meribel at La Chaudanne.
In the mornings, your personal driver, dedicated to your chalet, will be on hand in a toasty warm vehicle from 08.30 until 11.00 if needed, to take you to the slopes and help you load and unload your skis (and children!).
One of our drivers remains on duty and on-call from 11.00 to 17.30 (all our drivers have mobile phones). With just 20 minutes notice he/she can pick you up from anywhere in the valley and take you back to your chalet.
After 17.30 and before dinner, your designated chalet driver is available to pick you up and take you back to the chalet.
You can be driven to, and picked up from, anywhere you wish within the valley. This extends as far as Les Allues and Le Plantin.
Your private chauffeur service continues after dinner if needed (please pre-book with your driver before you sit down to dinner), until 12.00 midnight.

What's Included
Freshly prepared breakfast
Afternoon tea every day
Delicious four course dinners six days of your stay
Fine chateau and domaine-bottled wines
Unlimited champagne at any time. Complimentary bar of wine, beer, spirits and soft drinks
Skillfully prepared and elegantly presented, our professional chefs meticulously balance flavours and textures to create truly remarkable and memorable dishes. From breakfast through to sweet treats, canapés and dinner, our gourmet quality cuisine is what makes days on the mountain so satisfying.
Beautiful food calls for exceptional chefs, which is why we only hire fully qualified professionals with experience in top quality restaurants. Using seasonal and locally sourced ingredients wherever possible, every meal is defined by flavour, texture and balance.
Setting yourself up for a great day on the slopes and rewarding yourself afterwards are some of the best elements of a skiing holiday. You'll start your day with a beautifully presented breakfast of fruit juices, a freshly made "smoothie" or fruit / vegetable juice, fresh coffees, teas, yoghurts, cereals, porridge, a hot dish - like a "Eggs Royale" or a "full English breakfast", jambon cru, cheeses, fresh fruit salad, fresh bread and freshly baked croissants and jams.
After your day on the slopes, homemade cakes and biscuits await you in the sitting room.
Dinner is the pièce de résistance. Before your meal, canapés and champagne allow you to unwind in true style. You're then treated to an exceptional four-course meal, rounded off with freshly ground coffee, a digestif and homemade truffles.

CHILDREN AND CHILDCARE
Children love staying in this chalet, and so do their parents. We’re always looking for ways to make your holiday and your children’s as happy and hassle-free as possible.
For instance, our chauffeured minibuses mean you don’t have to worry about getting the little ones and their ski equipment to or from the pistes. And we’ll gladly serve children’s high tea in the early evening so that you can relax and enjoy dinner with your friends later, while they play in the sitting room nearby or go to bed! Or, if you wish to eat together, your chef will tailor the food to suit young palates. On the chef’s night off, we provide children’s high tea and complimentary babysitting so that the adults can – if they wish – have a child-free evening, secure in the knowledge that their children are well looked after.
We’re also happy to book ski lessons (available for children over the age of four), lift passes and ski equipment in advance so that there’s less to think about when you arrive.
Children’s equipment such as cots, high chairs, sterilisers, baby listeners, a selection of games, sledges, toys and children’s DVDs are available and we can even stock up on nappies and wipes to save you bringing them with you. We also have a small number of pushchairs available, or can hire these for you if needed.
NANNIES
For childcare during the day, we're fortunate to have some fantastic childcare companies and professionals operating in Méribel and Val d'Isère and with whom we have excellent relationships. They’re able to offer private nannies to look after your children in the comfort of your chalet.
All the nannies we recommend and work with are English speaking, qualified to NNEB or equivalent standard or have significant formal childcare experience, and all hold an up-to-date paediatric first aid certificate and have had their references and police records checked, so you can rest assured your children are in safe hands.
This service must be pre-booked as availability is limited. You can either book a nanny for the whole week or outside school holiday periods more flexible packages are available.
