New Chalets for the 2026/27 Ski Season

Chalet Tenzing, Val d’Isere

Big on location, full of Alpine charm, and made for sociable ski weeks – Chalet Tenzing puts you right in the heart of Val d’Isere’s mountain buzz. It’s a cosy and well-located Savoyarde chalet apartment ideal for groups wanting excellent value in central Val d’Isère. Sleeping seven guests across four en-suite bedrooms, it offers warm Alpine styling, practical comfort and easy access to the slopes, shops and après-ski.

Chalet Riva & Little Riva, La Plagne

We’re welcoming this brace of chalets to our collection – just a hop, skip, and snowball from the centre of Plagne Villages at a very snow-sure 2,100m. Riva (sleeps 13-15) and Little Riva (sleeps 4-5) are picture-perfect retreats for large and small groups alike, and can even be booked together for up to 20 people looking for a slice of luxury in La Plagne. Warm and inviting, each chalet is a true home-from-home after a day on the slopes.
The Riva chalets sit in Plagne Villages with direct access to the Plagne Centre and Bellecôte slopes. The Aollets chairlift is just metres away, and ski school & shops are within a 2-minute walk.

Chalet Sachette, Tignes

Old soul meets new sparkle at Chalet Sachette. A proper alpine chalet with stories in the beams and comfort in every corner, just steps from the main lift in the centre of Tignes Les Brévières (1,800m). The chalet features six en-suite bedrooms spread across three levels. The top-floor living and dining area, with its vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and large windows, oozes class and is the perfect space to relax, dine and unwind together.
Set opposite the village church in Tignes Les Brévières, Chalet Sachette is around 160 metres (2–3 minutes’ walk) from the Brévières gondola and beginner drag lift. Bars, restaurants and local shops are all within a short stroll, making evenings easy and relaxed.

NEW ‘First Turns’ Beginner Ski Packages

Designed specifically for beginner skiers, our First Turns packages combine all the key ingredients needed to start your skiing journey.

Each First Turns Package includes a local lift pass, skis, boots, poles & helmet hire, and five or six mornings of ski lessons with a fully-qualified, English-speaking instructor.

Skiworld Strengthens Premium Position in Conjunction with Partners CGH

Our apartment supplier CGH has confirmed a further expansion of its premium accommodation portfolio for Winter 2026/27.

Skiworld now has 18 five-star residences and 15 four-star residences, reinforcing its position as one of the Alps’ leading providers of high-quality apartment accommodation. Four additional properties in our programme will be upgraded to five-star status for next winter: Le Kalinda, L’Orée des Cimes, Les Cimes Blanches and Les Clarines.

Alongside the upgrades, we’ve simplified the way this premium portfolio is listed by removing the “Boutique Residence” tag. Instead, the focus is shifting towards guest experience, enhanced facilities and exclusive services across the entire top-tier collection.

While premium accommodation pricing continues to rise across the Alps, CGH remains committed to offering strong value relative to many competing luxury apartment operators – this is one of the many reasons Skiworld continue to enjoy a strong partnership.

Looking Forward to Skiing in 2026/27

As our customers look for more than just a standard ski trip, Skiworld has evolved to offer more premium accommodation, unique hosted experiences, specialist events and themed holidays, in order to enable ski holidays to reach their highest ceiling.

For skiers like you, that’s good news. Greater innovation, more choice and a wider range of experiences mean there are now more ways than ever to enjoy a Skiworld holiday in 2026/27.
