Courchevel, France
Six Senses Courchevel
Alpine Splendor
What it is
A 28-residence retreat of over-the-top luxury in Courchevel 1850, including a serene indoor pool and high-tech spa and a topnotch sushi joint.
What it isn't
Just about skiing. Experiences here range from husky sledding and helicopter tours to champagne breakfasts at sunrise in a hot air balloon lofted 1,000 feet above the craggy mountain peaks.
What we think
If you want to feel like you live in Courchevel 1850—and who doesn’t?—it doesn’t get better than this. Residences at Six Senses are equipped with kitchens, balconies and living spaces and finished with the best: supple chestnut leather, porcelain tile, and spruce timber that summons the feel of an ancient ski chalet. The Five-Bedroom Prestige Penthouse is a fairytale-worthy favorite; with 2,903-square-feet of breathing room and cozy design touches, including hanging egg-shaped chairs on the lantern-lit terrace that are ideal for cuddling up and taking in the panorama of mountain peaks beyond. Spend as much time as you can in the Six Senses Spa, which has earned every glowing accolade it gets (don’t miss the 90-minute rose diamond facial, speaking of glowing.)
You're here because
Service is impeccable for all ages, and includes a ski concierge and a Guest Experience Maker that will help you plan the most memorable outings imaginable, including pony rides and ice skating for little ones.
The Moment
Sumosan may just have the best sushi you’ve had outside of Kyoto, but it’s so much more—as your black caviar rice pizza will attest. Soon, your waiter is back to torch your unagi with cotton candy sauce tableside. Talk about hot.
