About this chalet rental

HighlightsA magnificent 4-bedroom rental chalet in La Tzoumaz, in a stunning location for winter or summer rental.  The entire front wall of the huge kitchen / living / dining area is made of glass, providing you with a magnificent feature window onto breath-taking panoramic views of the valley and the mountains beyond.

Bedrooms & BathroomsThe two large bathrooms and four spacious bedrooms in La Tzoumaz Chalet Gentiane have each been beautifully decorated and finished to give a homely feel.  With one twin room, three doubles and an extra single bunk over one of the double beds, the chalet sleep up to 9 people with ample space for two families, or a large group of friends.  In addition to the two large bathrooms, there is a separate WC on the main living floor.  

La Tzoumaz Chalet Gentiane is equipped with a high chair and a folding travel cot (bedding not provided) suitable for children under 2 years old, and a second is available on demand on arrival.  Please note that in accordance with the manufacturer's safety instructions, additional mattresses are not provided with the cots.

EquipmentThe kitchen is fully fitted to meet the needs of cooking for large groups, including a fridge/freezer, oven and induction hob.  There is a dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster, electric filter coffee-machine and Nespresso coffee machine, plus fondue and raclette sets for a traditional Swiss evening in front of the log fire.  A washing machine, dryer, iron and hairdryer are available, and there is a portable barbecue for outdoor use.

RelaxingThe only challenge when trying to watch the modern flat-screen television from the depths of the sumptuously comfortable sofas in the living room is trying not to be distracted by the beautiful and ever-changing views from the wall of windows behind the screen.  On a blue-sky day, the view stretches 20km, up to the peaks of the Haut de Cry and the Mont Gond, which tower 2000m over the Rhone Valley floor below.  When the snow is falling, you can watch it drifting slowly past you, as it settles over the traditional village of Iserables across the nearby valley.

InternetChalet Gentiane is equipped with free, high-speed WIFI for your own private use.

PetsWe're sorry but Chalet Gentiane is a pet-free property. Please browse our selection of pet-friendly chalets if you would like to travel with your pet.

ParkingParking for 2 or 3 cars outside the chalet. Winter tyres and/or snow chains necessary in winter due to steep access road. Alternative parking is available 170m away, in a lay-by on the main road. At least one car is advisable in both summer and winter. Contact us for railway or airport transfers.

WinterThe free ski bus (less than 200m from the door) whisks you the 2km to the Savoleyres telecabin in a matter of minutes. The modern high-speed telecabin carries you from La Tzoumaz up to the top of the Savoleyres in less than 8 minutes, from where you can decide to ski back on the quiet La Tzoumaz slopes or ski down to Verbier’s legendary slopes and world-class off-piste opportunities in the vast 4-Valleys ski area.

SummerIn the peak summer season (from early July to late August), we provide you with free VIP pedestrian lift-passes, half-price mountain-bike daypasses and a range of other discounts. The telecabin link to Verbier operates daily at this time of year from 08:45 to 12:30 and from 13:30 to 16:45, meaning that you can easily access the famous resort as a pedestrian, or accompanied by your bicycle or e-bike. For a small supplement you can even use a variety of mountain lifts to make your way up to Mont Fort at 3300m for the highest fondue in Europe and incredible mountain panoramas that include Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn.

In summer, the area turns into a hiking and mountain biking paradise, with hundreds of kilometres of marked trails criss-crossing the mountains, awash with alpine flowers and a range of wildlife to spot. Visit the Maison de la Foret with its wildlife exhibitions and its Five Senses Nature Trail, and the starting point of many beautiful hikes. The Bisses are relatively flat footpaths that follow the water as it trickles around the mountainsides, where for centuries farmers and villagers channelled the streams for their own uses. They have been preserved and can now be an incredible way to spend a day or more on easy hikes with stunning views across the Rhone Valley or over to the Massif des Combins. We will provide you with plenty of tourist information including our favourite suggestions for day trips that are easily reachable from La Tzoumaz, from spectacular gorge walks, cheese factories and roman festivals to rainy-day ideas such as underground lake tours. The road that winds up the mountain-top to the panoramic Croix-de-Coeur Cafe-Restaurant opens as soon as the snow melts and from here you can continue the drive (or cycle) all the way down into Verbier. Try not to miss the Swiss National Celebrations in La Tzoumaz on August 1st, or the famous festival of live music performances, the Verbier Festival, which runs from mid-July to the beginning of August.

For familiesThe centre of La Tzoumaz benefits from an outdoor ice-skating rink in winter, and a children's playground area in summer, with a rope-based agility park alongside more traditional equipment such as slides.  A fun channel system with running water is built into the hillside to provide plenty of entertainment for older children too. 

At the exit of the village the Domus playground is a fabulous spot, often bathed in late afternoon sunshine, with swings, a zipline, see-saw, climbing frames and even old tractors to clamber on.  It is overlooked by an outdoor cafe (check opening hours) providing drinks, snacks and ice-creams. There are rabbits, donkeys, goats, and there is also rock-climbing on the local crag in the background (contact us for equipment and instructors).

The Maison de la Foret has a cafe area for drinks and snacks (check opening hours), wildlife exhibitions and its Five Senses Nature Trail with hands-on activities to borrow such as bird-whistling and learning to draw. The Nature Trail has disabled parking and is accessible to wheelchairs and children's buggies.

Right at the top of the village is the "Defis de la Riviere", which is equipped as an outdoor physical challenge area for older kids on the river.  There are sensory walking areas for younger children and a basket swing, and also a picnic spot nearby.  

A short drive down the valley takes you to the large lake at the Parc des Iles, with its playgrounds, high-ropes park, minigolf, restaurant, miniature train and more.

chalet Gentiane
chalet Gentiane
Het chalet is goed bevallen. Het is goed uitgerust en smaakvol ingericht. Ook de keuken is goed uitgerust. Wat de slaapkamers betreft, de bedden zijn comfortabel. Qua kastruimte mocht er iets meer zijn. Vooral op de slaapkamer boven, daar is alleen 1 ladekast (met 3 laden) als opbergruimte. De kasten op de slaapkamers beneden zijn groot, maar er is alleen hanggedeelte, geen legplanken. Het benedenbed van het stapelbed is een iets ruimer formaat dan normaal (maatje twijfelaar), het bovenbed is wel normale maat. Wasmachine en droger zijn ideaal, er is een wasrekje maar geen wasknijpers. De badkamers waren ook prima, fijne douches. In de tuin staat een tuintafel maar er zijn maar 4 tuinstoelen die bij de tafel horen. Met z'n 8en buiten eten was helaas niet mogelijk daardoor. Parkeerruimte is er voldoende, wij waren met 3 auto's die we alledrie op het terrein voor het huis konden parkeren. Het huis ligt rustig aan een zijweg van de doorgaande weg, dus er komt heel weinig verkeer (alleen bewoners van de chalets aan het weggetje. De service was prima. De waterkoker was niet in orde toen we aankwamen en deze werd meteen vervangen door een nieuw exemplaar. Fijn dat er Nederlands sprekende medewerkers zijn! Wij hebben een heel fijne tijd gehad in chalet Gentiane!

Chalet dei sogni
Chalet dei sogni
Uno chalet come lo si immagina nei sogni. Non solo lo chalet è molto bello come nelle foto ma anche molto pratico e ben accessoriato, non manca nulla, ci sono anche giochi, libri e DVD a disposizione. Inoltre la vista panoramica dalle finestre del soggiorno è eccezionale e ti sembra di stare in paradiso. Davvero un soggiorno speciale. Da sottolineare la pulizia accurata dei bagni e dell'ambiente. La casa è gradevolmente calda.

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt im Chalet Gentiane sehr genossen, es ist genauso schön wie auf den Bildern, wir haben sehr gut geschlafen und fanden alles was wir benötigten im Haus. Der Skibus hält unweit vom Chalet und der Skiort ist hervorragend für alle Niveaus :-)
