Chalet Ambre, Tignes, France

Nestled in a quiet enclave of Tignes Le Lac Chalet Ambre is positioned next to Chalet Opale. Chalet Ambre sleeps up to 11 people in 4 bedrooms or it can be taken alongside Chalet Opale to create an alpine residence sleeping 21. Finished in 2014, this unique chalet is a wonderful blend of modern and contemporary furnishings with authentic alpine décor ensuring maximum relaxation and never ending luxury.

The chalet occupies an incredible position next to the Almes piste in the heart of the Espace Killy ski area, a truly enviable location. An ideal spot for ski enthusiasts who can ski back to the chalet, alternatively the piste is under a minutes’ walk from the chalet.

The chalet uses geothermal technology to assist with heating hot water and keeping the chalet warm. This makes the chalet incredibly energy efficient and reduces our carbon footprint.
