Discover our Luxury Chalets in Gstaad

Nestled in the heart of the Bernese Oberland, Gstaad is one of Switzerland’s most prestigious mountain resorts, known for its understated luxury, charming atmosphere and wide-ranging winter activities. Whether you’re seeking luxury chalets in Gstaad, a family-friendly ski break or a glamorous Alpine escape, Gstaad promises an unforgettable luxury ski holiday.

Why Choose Gstaad for your Next Ski Holiday?

With its fairytale village, snow-covered slopes and relaxed glamour, Gstaad offers a distinctive ski experience. Unlike some of the more frenetic Alpine resorts, ski holidays to Gstaad are defined by a sense of serenity and elegance.

The pedestrianised village is lined with historic wooden buildings and designer boutiques, while the surrounding mountains offer 200 km of varied pistes suitable for all abilities. Home to the only glacier ski area in the Bernese Oberland, the season here stretches well into spring.

Gstaad is the perfect destination for an old-school ski trip. It's the original alpine elegance. Julie Andrews (who knows a little something about favourite things) calls Gstaad “the last paradise in a crazy world.

What Sets Gstaad Apart?

The History of Gstaad

Once described by Julie Andrews as the “last paradise in a crazy world,” Gstaad is far more than a celebrity hideaway. While it attracts royalty and A-listers, its true charm lies in its blend of authentic Alpine life and refined luxury.

Easily reached by car from Geneva in just two hours, or via the scenic Golden Pass train, Gstaad welcomes visitors with breathtaking views and timeless elegance. Despite its glamorous reputation, the village has preserved its traditional character, with over 200 working farms and a strong mountain culture that gives it a uniquely authentic charm.

Gstaad Ski Area

The Gstaad ski area encompasses several interconnected regions, including Schönried, Saanenmöser, Zweisimmen and Glacier 3000. With over 200 km of slopes and 40+ lifts, skiers of all levels are well catered for.

The charm of Gstaad is hard to put into words. I love sitting outside Charly’s tea room with a hot chocolate in winter and watching the figure skaters practise their routines on the ice rink.
