Megève: An Alpine Classic

Megève has never needed to make much noise. Chic Parisians and old French families have been coming here for generations, drawn as much by the village as by the skiing.

A good lunch, a browse through the boutiques, a coffee that turns into another: this is a place where a day off the slopes is a day well spent.

The chalet suits that rhythm. Children have their own bedroom and play area, while anyone leaving their skis at home has plenty to keep them occupied, both in-house and in the village, a short walk away.

There’s a driver on hand for the return journey, too, particularly useful when a little shopping becomes rather a lot❄️

Spend your days at a secluded Greek home, where a beautiful beach lies just a few steps away and the clear Aegean waters are perfect for swimming and water sports. The setting feels wonderfully private, yet a short boat ride brings you to a collection of charming fishing villages waiting to be explored.

Available for Summer 2027.

Courchevel has long understood that the finest ski holidays are measured by more than time spent on the slopes. From long lunches and spirited après-ski to elegant dinners and late nights, our guide reveals the addresses worth knowing.

Discover Courchevel with the SJ Villas Winter Chalet Collection for 2026/27

Le Cap Horn - Since 1954, Cap Horn is the oldest mountain restaurant in Courchevel 1850. Its magnificent south-facing terrace, its warm interior and the blend of the great marine explorers with a mountain farm to enjoy a pleasant festive moment.

La Soucoupe - La Soucoupe’s speciality is its exceptional meats, grilled over an open fire. Pierre, a former butcher, and his wife Anne-Laure carefully select French and international cuts of meat, guaranteeing impeccable quality.

Loulou’s - This idyllic mountain venue offers beautiful views over the snow-covered Bellecôte run… Outside, the vast sun-drenched terrace beckons, as it turns into a vibrant venue over the course of the day, with its selection of cocktails and DJ beats. The cuisine of neighbouring Italy is also featured on the menu.

Chalet de Pierres - Le Chalet de Pierres is a refuge where you stop for everything: a lunch with friends, a gourmet break facing the peaks, or simply a moment to catch your breath before the mountain calls you back.

La Cave des Creux - La Cave des Creux is run by local and young former ski instructors, and serves a refined brasserie menu with regional specialities, quality products, fish, Asian fusion recipes….

La Folie Douce - It’s famous for putting on some of the world’s most amazing parties high up on the slopes. Live DJs, open-air clubbing, daily shows all surrounded by the awe-inspiring mountain landscape.

Chalet de Pierres - A VIP restaurant, turned champagne-infused enjoyment, this is what you imagine when thinking of après ski in Courchevel 1850. The atmosphere of this Courchevel après ski spot is what makes it a favourite time
and time again. Great food and drink with live music gives this restaurant turned Courchevel après ski bar a great buzz.

Le Plante de Baton - If you’re a younger crowd (or wanting to be) looking for a Courchevel après ski spot with g

A day at a stylish ski-in, ski-out Alpine chalet is a day well spent. Mornings begin slowly over a chef-prepared breakfast and uninterrupted mountain views, followed by first tracks on the slopes. Return to one of Austria’s most impressive private spas before settling in for dinner, prepared and served fireside.

We know Corsica inside and out. It’s a destination Judy and Tom truly love - wild, unspoilt and full of character, with stylish beach clubs and Sardinia close enough for a memorable day trip. Over the years, we’ve personally discovered an exceptional collection of private homes, many of which remain completely unknown to others.

These hidden villas cannot be found online and are available exclusively by contacting us.

A hidden Corsican retreat we have never shared before… Neither here nor on our website. Set within the exclusive Domaine de Piantarella, the villa offers direct access to the sea and a private buoy for mooring your boat. Ideal for large families and groups with 8 en-suite bedrooms and plenty of space to switch off.

Some of our happiest moments as a family have been around a table together. A long lunch, something delicious to share, plenty of conversation, and nowhere else we need to be.

These are the moments we treasure ourselves, and the kind of time together we hope every stay at SJ Villas makes space for.
