Iona Chalet
6 bedroom Chalet in Meribel. Sleeps 12
The chalet is set in its own secluded orchards, with breath-taking views from full height windows. The property actually comprises 3 buildings, offering a great option for larger groups.
The main chalet has an impressive open plan living room with large, high ceilings, a stunning modern open plan kitchen, inviting seating areas around the dramatic, suspended fireplace and a huge, hand-made oak dining table close to the large east-facing panoramic windows, which provides the perfect place to relax and socialise during dinner.
Stairs lead down to an elegant sitting room with wood burning stove, cinema area, reading corners with board games and this area opens onto the terrace with jacuzzi where you can relax with a glass of champagne after a day on the slopes.
There is also a ski room with heated boot warmers.
For larger groups, guests can spill over into the two smaller chalets. Chalet India is next door and Chalet William is just across the road. Both chalets have their own living and dining areas, allowing some groups to have a bit of space and privacy during your stay.
