When you rent a luxury chalet for 10 people in Megève, the concierge service is essential.

The private chef
Calling in a private chef is a privilege, especially for 10 people. This service, which is particularly popular with groups, allows you to enjoy exceptional cuisine in the privacy of your chalet.
For a gourmet Sunday brunch, The chef can prepare a selection of home-made pastries, scrambled eggs with truffles, smoked Norwegian salmon and blueberry pancakes, accompanied by freshly squeezed fruit juices and café grand cru. This convivial formula allows all guests to get together around a generous buffet, without rushing.
Savoyard dinner revisited is a must. Imagine an Alpine cheese fondue prepared with four carefully selected local cheeses, served with an assortment of artisan breads and fine charcuterie. Or a premium raclette with cellar-aged cheeses, mountain potatoes and grilled vegetables, followed by a signature dessert such as a wild blueberry tart with génépi ice cream.
For a gourmet dinner, The chef can compose a five-course menu: butternut velouté with chestnut slivers, snacked scallops on crushed Jerusalem artichokes, fillet of Salers beef with Savoie wine sauce, a platter of exceptional cheeses, and hot soufflé with Grand Marnier. Each dish is carefully presented and accompanied by wines selected by a sommelier.
The aperitif dinner is also a popular option for groups: the chef prepares around thirty refined bites (mini venison burgers, caviar blinis, gourmet verrines, vegetable tempuras) that can be enjoyed standing up, in a relaxed but elegant atmosphere.
The chef also takes care of all the logistics: shopping for fresh produce at local markets, preparation in the kitchen, preparing the dishes, serving at the table and cleaning the kitchen. All you have to do is sit down at the table and enjoy these gastronomic moments together.

Practical advice for your rental
Looking ahead to secure the best properties
Exceptional chalets are generally booked six to twelve months in advance for school holidays. Not only does this guarantee the availability of the property you want, but it also means you can benefit from more advantageous prices. For stays outside the school holidays, booking three to four months in advance is generally sufficient.
Optimum length of stay
While weekly rental (Saturday to Saturday) remains the classic formula in high season, chalets often accept shorter stays in off-peak periods. An extended weekend of four nights may be enough for a first taste, but a full week allows you to really immerse yourself in the rhythm of the mountains and explore all the activities on offer, without rushing.
Things to watch out for before booking
Check the rental conditions carefully: amount of deposit, cancellation policy, insurance included or to be taken out separately, and services included in the basic price. Make sure that the chalet has the advertised number of bedrooms with private bathrooms, and not mixed configurations with shared bathrooms. Confirm the maximum capacity and any restrictions (age of children, pets allowed). Finally, ask about the availability of parking, which is crucial in Megève, where parking can be difficult.
