A new address in Méribel
For winter 2026/27, Chalet Montclair will join Consensio’s Ultimate Catered collection in Méribel. Set on the Route de la Renarde, two minutes from the slopes and within easy reach of the resort centre, it brings something distinctly different to their portfolio.
Rather than following the conventions of a traditional alpine chalet, Montclair has a strong contemporary identity. Its’ centrepiece is a double-height living room, where internal bridges, expansive windows and a sculptural concrete staircase create a sense of scale. A central fireplace brings warmth to the space, while a mirrored bar and separate dining room set the scene for evenings in.
The chalet spans 650 m², with six ensuite bedrooms and bespoke furniture throughout, including sofas created in collaboration with Minotti. Downstairs, an entire floor is dedicated to wellness, with a 10-metre indoor pool, sauna, hammam and treatment room, alongside a separate games room.
Architect Joseph Mills explains:
“We wanted to combine modern open-plan living with sculptural elements that flow naturally through the interiors. Natural materials bring warmth, while the double-height spaces and floor-to-ceiling windows frame the mountain views.”
Montclair will be offered with Consensio’s Ultimate Catered service, including a private chef, chalet manager, hosts, housekeepers, in-resort chauffeur service and dedicated concierge. Guests can enjoy daily breakfast and afternoon tea, with chef-prepared dinners served five evenings each week.

Before the doors open
A new winter season begins months before the first snowfall. While the resorts are quieter, the Consensio teams are working through every Chalet and Serviced Property, preparing the details that guests may never notice but which shape the way a stay feels.
Properties are inspected, improvements completed and spa and technology systems tested. Linen, tableware, amenities and soft furnishings are reviewed, while transport schedules and supplier arrangements are rebuilt around the season ahead.
The people behind every stay
In November, the winter teams will come together in the Alps. Alongside practical training in food, wine, service and safety, they will spend time learning the individual character of each property and how our service works within it.
For returning team members, the programme also includes leadership development and preparation for more senior roles. It is a chance for everyone to settle into the resorts and begin working as one team before guests arrive.
