High altitude, quadruple-aspect duplex penthouse with sweeping mountain views in all directions
Perched at 1930m in the tranquil Le Fornet area of Val d’Isère, the luxuriously appointed and beautifully decorated Arolay Penthouse offers a unique alpine experience as one of the highest duplex penthouses in the French Alps. This chic four bedroom retreat featuring an impressive double height, quadruple-aspect living space, sleeps up to eight guests and combines modern elegance with the warm, inviting charm of a traditional chalet. It provides a serene mountain escape while being just five minutes walk from the slopes and only a five minute ride to the vibrant village centre using the complimentary shuttle bus system that stops at the bus stop outside and runs from 7.30am to 2am in winter.
Occupying the top two floors of an exclusive chalet, newly built in the traditional style, Arolay Penthouse is entered directly from the private lift. Arriving on the first floor guests are greeted by a spacious hallway leading to the master suite and three additional en-suite double bedrooms. All bedrooms benefit from supremely comfortable pillow-top Hypnos mattresses and luxurious Hungarian goose down bedding. This floor also includes private laundry and drying facilities as well as a guest WC.
The master superking/twin bedroom offers balcony access with beautiful views, a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a separate shower and full-size bath tub. This bedroom has a built in dressing table, ample wardrobe space and a smart TV.
The three other en-suite bedrooms each offer a serene private sanctuary with two of these bedrooms providing access to wrap-around balconies with stunning south and west-facing views. One of these bedrooms features a full-size bathtub, perfect for unwinding after a day on the slopes. High-quality reclaimed wood, natural stone, and luxurious textiles create a warm, sophisticated atmosphere throughout.
Ascending to the top floor, you'll discover what makes this luxury duplex penthouse unique: an impressive double-height living space with sweeping quadruple-aspect mountain views of the Bellevarde, Solaise, Signal, and Tovière summits. This bright, light-flooded space features an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, complete with a cosy wood-burning fireplace, bespoke art, thoughtful lighting options and oversized sofas. An ideal, cosy vantage point from which to watch the weekly torchlit descents down La Face de Bellevarde by the ski school instructors and the regular, magical firework displays above the village.
The well-equipped, sleek kitchen is perfect for social gatherings, while the adjacent dining area is crowned by an impressive oversized wicker chandelier, adding a touch of rustic elegance.
Step outside onto the generous south-facing roof terrace for al fresco dining or simply soak up the panoramic mountain views from the outdoor seating area. Spend winter evenings stargazing or watching the piste bashers at work on the moonlit mountains.
A private ski room for you and your guests is equipped with heated boot warmers is conveniently located near the main entrance to the chalet on the ground floor. This is accessed via the elevator. The parking facilities are located on the lower ground floor, also accessible by elevator, and include three underground parking spaces, a rarity in Val d’Isère.
Located just 200m from the Le Fornet cable car and the blue Mangard ski run, Arolay Penthouse offers a peaceful and luxurious mountain retreat while providing easy access to Val d'Isère’s 300km of pristine pistes. The vibrant après-ski scene, world-class restaurants, and boutique shops of Val d’Isère are just a five minute ride away on the frequent, shuttle bus, making this penthouse the perfect base for those seeking both adventure and relaxation.
