Le Crêt
Small hamlet of stylishly renovated old farmhouse chalets nestled into the hillside
Le Crêt is a small traditional hamlet of Val d'Isère that is surrounded by beautiful mountains and offers excellent views over Val d'Isère itself. Old converted farmhouses that have been restored to an excellent standard make up this small part of the region.
Le Crêt is a charming and peaceful hamlet located right next to the centre of Val d’Isère and just a short walk from La Daille. Its traditional wooden and stone architecture gives it a rustic yet elegant feel, and the beautifully converted farmhouses provide high-end apartments and luxury chalets.
It is ideal if you are looking for quality accommodation with fantastic views over the ski area, while still being close enough to wander into town for shopping, dining or the lively nightlife. Mostly residential and quiet, Le Crêt offers tranquillity without sacrificing convenience, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a relaxed but exclusive base in the heart of the resort.

Things to do in Val d’Isere
In the winter, Le Crêt is a great place to stay for a cosy winter holiday. The regular bus service gives you great access to the ski slopes. You can get to the Rond Point in less than 10 minutes and head up the Solaise or Bellevarde side of the mountain, or take the short bus ride to La Daille for quick access to the whole Espace Killy ski area.
When the winter season closes and summer rolls around the mountains change from a white haven to a lush green, with beautiful trees, flowers and wildlife. The usually sunny weather means there is plenty to do with lots of summer activities available. Le Crêt in the summer is a lot quieter with many of the rental chalets closing their doors for the season. However, there are a few that remain open and they can be the perfect spot for a quiet family or group holiday. You can enjoy the hiking and walking, the mountain biking and the quiet village feel that the Val d'Isère centre has in the summer.
