Chalet Fontany, located in the hamlet of Meribel Village, is a family chalet combining traditional and contemporary styles. Located a few minutes from the slopes and shops, you can access the ski area of the ??3 Valleys in a few steps.
Chalet Fontany is one of the most authentic chalets in Meribel Village with a history of its own Destroyed to be completely rebuilt "exactly respecting the footprints and all that corresponded to the original cottage, the exteriors are identical to the old ones with a more contemporary dimension," according to Rémi Giffon, architect of the Fontany chalet revival. Made of old wood and stone, the facades of this family chalet blend perfectly with the natural environment in which it stands.
In collaboration with the English owners, Atelier Rémi Giffon designed some of the furniture, then built by their carpenter in the same wood as the rest of the chalet. The owners, very invested in the project, imported many pieces from England, taking advantage of different influences. The local Savoyard spinning mill, Arpin, has been used for curtains and headboards that provide warmth through the use of mountain wool. The use of noble and local materials such as old wood, wool or stone make Chalet Fontany a family chalet where it feels good to stay.
This chalet has three magnificent double bedrooms, offering comfort and tranquillity for six guests after a day on the slopes, with a bunk bed room ideal for young adults and a sleek master suite allowing parents to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the Multi Room. The latter, located under the existing terrace, is divided into two areas: a large children's bedroom with two suspended beds and two double beds, and a cosy television room. On the same level, a separate bathroom offers a sauna and a whirlpool bath for moments of relaxation. On the top floor, the living room consists of a television area with fur seating and a space with large sofas arranged in a square for convivial moments, all warmed by an imposing stone fireplace, while the open-plan fitted kitchen invites cooks to concoct meals that can be enjoyed around the long family table.
Chalet Fontany is a chalet that will delight families looking for unforgettable memories in the French Alps. Its beautiful volumes and the perceived luminosity throughout the day, its dedicated spaces and the conviviality that it releases make of Fontany the family chalet by excellence in Meribel.
