Super indulgence where every stay is magic

22nd February 2026 By David Pike

The latest offering from the Magic Collection offers an intimate new alpine retreat redefining mountain luxury.

Magic Megève Bois is ,quite simply, an enviable study in indulgence, offering a seamless fusion of tradition, artistry, and elegance. 

Recognised by Michelin Guide of Hotels and nestled high in the heart of the French Alps, this extraordinary property, brings together  design and storytelling to create soulful, immersive hospitality experiences.

At Magic Megève Bois, heritage meets refinement across twelve individually designed suites, each offering a contemporary interpretation of alpine authenticity.  

Every room features unique furniture pieces by Martino Gamper, the Italian-born, London-based designer renowned for transforming everyday objects into playful works of art whilst infusing each space with individuality and creative warmth. 

It is a family-friendly destination spanning over 1,080 square metres: ideally positioned at the edge of the Princesse ski area, the property offers true ski-in, ski-out access in winter and a tranquil, forest-immersed setting in summer. 

Magic Megève Bois also boasts a fine dining restaurant at the heart of the chalet, Le Simon, that boasts an innovative take on Alpine cuisine. 

Beyond gastronomy, Magic Megève Bois serves as a sanctuary of wellbeing. The Kezia Spa invites guests to restore balance through thermal baths, a salt sauna, hammam, and Himalayan salt room. 

Treatments range from hot-stone massages to bespoke bioenergetic rituals designed to harmonise body and spirit. 

Leisure continues throughout the chalet with a private cinema, billiards lounge, and a warmly lit salon ideal for quiet reading or aperitifs by the fire. Wellness continues with wooden NOHrD gym.

Just minutes from the heart of Megève, the chalet offers both seclusion and connection,  a private haven with effortless access to the region’s vibrant cultural and sporting life.
