One of very few piste-side luxury ski chalets in Chamonix Valley
Rarity: a ski in, ski out chalet in Chamonix valley
There are just three catered chalets that are truly ski in, ski out chalets in Chamonix Valley.
That means out of the hundred-or-so chalets in Chamonix, we are envied by all for our special location.
We are situated perfectly, right on the 'Aillouds' blue piste of Les Houches - which means we are ideal for beginners and intermediate skiers, as well as mixed ability groups. Simply step into your skis, or strap on your snowboard, and you are ready to ski straight off the property and onto the piste.
At the end of the day, you simply ski straight back into the chalet - to be greeted with a steaming hot cup of tea and freshly baked cakes whilst you relax in front of the roaring log fire.
In addition to ski in, ski out, when you choose to stay at Maison Jaune fully catered, we will drive you to any of the other four ski stations in Chamonix valley if you fancy a change in scenery... or perhaps Courmayeur or Verbier?
This also means you will always experience the best snow conditions available.
Ease those aching limbs in the hot tub
After your long hard day of skiing, walking or climbing, nothing is better than being able to relax your tired muscles sipping Champagne in the hot tub, laughing with friends, whilst the sunset turns the snow-capped mountains all-around a rich shade of burgundy.
Relax with live musical entertainment
Enjoy early evening cocktails with live musical entertainment from our resident classical and jazz pianist. From Chopin classics to honky tonk... If anyone in your group is musical, we also have a guitar if you fancy a sing-a-long.

Fantastic chalet facilities
If you are tired, or the weather isn't so great, you can chill out in front of the roaring log fire on the sofa to watch one of over 300 movies from our multimedia entertainment system on our giant 42" plasma screen, or listen to some great music.
You can surf the internet - using either the guest computer, or via the Wi-Fi installed in the chalet.
You can enjoy playing on our new Nintendo Wii - with WiiFit, 2 remotes, nunchuks and a selection of games.
Alternatively, you could simply curl up with one of the hundreds of books available for you to enjoy in the lounge library.
Chamonix Catered or Self-catered?
In the Summer, Chamonix chalet Maison Jaune operates as a B&B or can be hired as self-catered.
Situated right on the famous Tour du Mont-Blanc it is the perfect place to stay for walkers or mountain bikers in the Summer.
In the Winter, you can have the choice of the whole chalet self-catered, or catered where you can enjoy superb four-course restaurant-quality meals from the comfort of the chalet - wonderful local specialities and great free-flowing wine.
Chalet Maison Jaune is owner-run
Helen and Leighton run the chalet themselves. This means you do not run the risk of your "professional chef" or chalet hosts quitting just before you arrive on holiday. With over five years continuous experience, we pride ourselves on the quality of our chalet food and service - which can only keep getting better, year after year!
But hey... don't take our word for it! Read what our other guests have to say.....
