Chalet De Verbier, Verbier, Switzerland

The Xtra Chalet de Verbier is in a truly enviable location on one of Verbier’s principal streets, just off the well known ‘Place Centrale’, and only approximately 5 minutes’ walk away from the main Medran gondolas, which quickly take skiers up to Les Ruinettes and on towards La Chaux and Mont Fort. To start your ski day in another part of the resort, such as the pretty Savoleyres section, take one of the regular resort shuttle buses from the bus stop just 50m from the chalet. If you fancy lingering in one of Verbier’s fun bars at the end of the day, there are plenty to choose from within only a short distance too.

With our holidays including our extensive breakfast with hot options, afternoon tea and cake, and 4-course dinners with complimentary wine, skiing in this desirable, chic Swiss resort is within your reach, offering excellent value for money.

The chalet interior is rustic and traditional, offering a welcoming ambience in the spacious lounge complete with open fire and cosy corners, and in the classically-styled dining room with beams and adjoining bar with satellite TV. The refurbished bedrooms are all en suite, with appealing modern touches such as cable TV, free Wifi and hairdryer, and hints of Alpine style with wood-panelled walls and features. Several also have the bonus of a balcony. Certain rooms on the 3rd floor have exposed beamed ceilings, and are partially under the eaves, adding to their charm. There’s a good variety of room sizes here for mixed groups, from a single and twin/double bedrooms to a four-bedded quad and three family suites, each with two separate rooms which inter-connect (with their own doors off the corridor), and sleep up to 5 guests, sharing a bathroom and balcony.

A lift operates between the ground and third floor to ease access to all bedrooms, whilst the lower ground floor houses a ski and boot room with individual room lockers.

We set very high standards for our cuisine, and train our staff extensively before the season starts, to ensure that you will thoroughly enjoy every meal on your holiday with us. We also take our Health and Safety responsibilities extremely seriously, so all our chalet and Chalet Hotel staff involved in food preparation are trained to the City & Guilds qualification – Level 2 in Food Safety during the pre-season training course. There is a continental breakfast is every morning and a breakfast hot option, afternoon tea and evening dinners are provided for six days of the week in both chalets and Chalet Hotels.

Breakfast

A good breakfast is essential on a ski holiday, so we provide both a hot option, as well as a continental selection with a choice of cereals or porridge, fruit juices, plentiful tea, coffee and bread (and croissants in France), cold meats, cheese and preserves, which is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself. On our staff day off, only the continental breakfast will be provided.

Afternoon Tea

The traditional ‘welcome home’ after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff day off. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready.

Children's High Tea

In chalets and Chalet Hotels with family guests, High Tea provides children under 11 years with a healthy menu, tailored more towards children’s tastes and puréed food is available for infants on request. High Tea is at 5.30pm, and children do not join the main adult-only dinner.

Dinner in Chalets

In the evenings our hosts will cook you a three-course adult only meal six nights a week. This starts with a glass of prosecco followed by an appetiser, main course and dessert – with unlimited complimentary red, white and rosé wine during service! There is also an option for vegetarians, please warn us in advance.

One of these meals will be a regional meal with the menu depending on which country you are staying in.

On the staff one night off per week just a continental breakfast is provided and it’s a great opportunity for you to experience some local restaurants in your resort. Speak to your resort representative for recommendations and help with reservations.

Vegetarian and Special Diets

Vegetarian options are available in our properties – just advise us at time of bookings so that we can ensure that our staff can prepare. Other special diets can generally be catered for at a cost of £35 per person per week. Any dietary requirements must be advised to us at the time of booking in order for us to be fully prepared. Our Chalet Hosts will discuss your dietary requirements with you upon arrival to the chalet or Chalet Hotel.

Christmas and New Year

All of our chalets and Chalet Hotels will serve a traditional Christmas dinner with a glass of Champagne to start off the evening. This will include roast turkey with all of the trimmings, Christmas pudding, mince pies, crackers and party hats plus a fantastic Alpine atmosphere in which to enjoy the day.

A special festive menu will also be served on New Year’s Eve, alongside the added bonus that many resorts put on fantastic firework displays. A glass of fizz, whilst watching fireworks over the snow-capped peaks of the Alps.. what better way to bring in the New Year!

Our Quality Wines

We are very proud of our wine selection for chalets and Chalet Hotels, which combines crisp and fruity whites with medium to full-bodied reds, for a variety of palates. We select our wines in conjunction with our good friends Nicolas and Véronique – the third generation in the Perret family’s fine wine business based in the Savoie. Nicolas is a qualified wine expert, having trained at the prestigious Burgundy Wine University in Beaune. Each season in October, Nicolas & Véronique bring over a new selection for us to sample (someone has to do it!) and together we choose our wines for the coming season, based on our menus and their pure enjoyment factor. Wine is an incredibly subjective and emotive subject, however, the feedback we have received from our guests over recent seasons endorses our aims of providing wines to enhance your meal and to suit most tastes. We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do!
