A Game-Changer for Serre Chevalier: The New MMV Club Residence is Coming—and You Can Book it from December
A brand new 4-star residence is set to open its doors in Serre Chevalier—and it's not just another apartment block. It's a full-blown mountain experience designed to raise the bar for ski holidays in the Alps.
Want the buzz before the buzz kicks off?
A brand new 4-star residence is set to open its doors in Serre Chevalier—and it's not just another apartment block or hotel. It's a full-blown mountain experience designed to raise the bar for ski holidays in the Alps. The best part? You can already reserve your spot for this coming December. Yes, really.
Whether you're planning your next family adventure, a short ski break with mates, or a luxurious wellness escape, this new residence could be your dream alpine base. And we're here to tell you exactly why.
🏡 The Short Version: What’s the Big Deal?
Let’s put it plainly: this isn’t just another block of flats with a ski locker.
It’s 164 stylish apartments, from two-room snug nooks to spacious four-room family bases, set within 12,000m² of pure comfort and clever design. We’re talking:
Top-notch communal spaces
Spa, sauna, hammam, and indoor pool
Kids’ clubs with a climbing wall (!)
Hotel-style amenities like breakfast and early check-in
Eco-conscious design (we’ll come back to that in a sec)
And the kicker? It’s nestled in the heart of Serre Chevalier, one of the most snow-sure and family-friendly resorts in the French Alps.
📍 A Residence With a View—And a Vision
Let’s zoom out for a moment.
Serre Chevalier sits proudly between Grenoble and Turin, at the foot of the majestic Écrins massif. With over 300 days of sunshine and more than 250km of ski slopes, it’s already a top-tier destination for skiers, snowboarders, and adventure-seekers alike.
But what makes it really stand out? Its deep commitment to the future. Serre Che is one of the few European resorts actively generating its own electricity using hydro, solar, and wind power. It’s not just a winter wonderland—it’s a forward-thinking one.
So it makes total sense that the newest addition to the resort would follow suit. This brand new MMV Club Residence is a showpiece for responsible tourism and sustainable living, wrapped up in a very, very comfortable package.
🛌 Let’s Talk Apartments: Your Home in the Mountains
Alright, back to the good stuff—what will your stay actually look like?
🏠 Accommodation Options
There are layouts and styles for pretty much every kind of guest:
2-room to 4-room apartments sleeping up to 8 people
Self-catering freedom or hotel-style services (with breakfast included!)
Premium apartments for those wanting the best views and extra perks—think wood-burning stoves, plush interiors, and early check-ins
Whether you’re the Thomas & Sophie type (family-focused with young skiers in tow), a James & Emily luxury-loving couple, or part of the Gap Year Crew chasing powder and pints, you’ll find an apartment here that fits the bill.
🧘♀️ So Much More Than a Place to Sleep
Let’s be honest—when your accommodation comes with a pool, sauna, hammam, AND spa treatment rooms, it’s more of a retreat than a rental.
This new residence has over 1,500m² of shared spaces designed for relaxing, socialising, and recharging between runs.
You’ll find:
A stunning wellness area with pool, sauna, and hammam
A spa offering a range of treatments
“The Living” – a cosy lounge and bar with a roaring fire and après-ski snacks
Entertainment and live shows for those who like a bit of atmosphere in the evenings
So whether you’re coming off the slopes sore and satisfied or you’re a non-skier looking to unwind in style, this is not the kind of place you’ll want to leave in a hurry.
👧🏼 For the Little Legends: A Kids’ Paradise
Let’s give a quick shout-out to the youngest guests—because they’re in for a treat.
Nearly 200m² of this new residence is dedicated to kids' clubs for ages 4–17, with space to play, explore, and make new friends.
Highlights include:
A climbing wall (yes, really)
Structured activities by age group
Year-round fun, not just during the holidays
If you’re a parent who values a bit of time on the mountain without a small hand tugging your sleeve—this is gold. Trust us.
♻️ Built With the Planet in Mind
In a world of throwaway tourism and cookie-cutter hotels, this new residence is refreshingly different.
It’s built to RE 2020 regulations, aiming for NF Habitat HQE “Very High Performance” certification—which is a fancy way of saying it’s seriously energy efficient, even in extreme winter.
Other eco-friendly features include:
Heating and hot water from wood pellet boilers
300m² of solar panels
A smart energy management system
Secure bike room + 24 EV charging stations
Green roof and biodiversity-focused landscaping
Bird nesting boxes and environmental education on-site
Oh, and they’ve even set aside beds for seasonal workers—because a happy team means a better stay for everyone.
💬 So, Who’s This For?
Short answer? Everyone.
But let’s spell it out for a few of you specifically:
👨👩👧 Families
Space for everyone, kid-friendly fun, self-catering flexibility or hotel ease, kids' clubs, and a pool? Yep. It ticks all the boxes.
🎿 Weekend Warriors
Early check-in, hotel-style rooms, and easy access to the slopes? This is your no-fuss base for smashing out a few quality runs and heading home refreshed.
💅 Wellness Seekers
You don’t need skis to enjoy this place. Spa, sauna, hammam, a drink by the fire, and zero obligation to leave the building? Say no more.
🏂 Groups & Crews
With large flats, heated ski rooms, and après in-house, this place is ideal for mates looking for good snow and great value.

Imagine this: You’ve just come off the slopes. Your legs are jelly, your cheeks are wind-kissed, and your heart is full. The only thing missing? A three-course dinner magically appearing in your chalet—with zero effort from you.
Sound too good to be true?
Not in Serre Chevalier.
This winter, Go Serre Chevalier is changing the game with not one, but two ways to ditch the kitchen duty and focus on the good stuff—skiing, soaking, and spending proper time together.
Let us introduce you to The Haybarn (our all-inclusive catered chalet that’s turning heads) and Chalet Chef (Alpine dining delivered to your door). Whether you want full service or just a few nights off, this one’s for you.
🏡 First Up: Meet The Haybarn – Serre Chevalier’s All-Inclusive Chalet
Located in the heart of the valley and designed with both style and comfort in mind, The Haybarn isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to unwind completely.
Why It’s a Crowd Favourite:
All-inclusive luxury: Think of it as your own private ski hotel—with none of the crowds and all the charm.
Private chef: Every evening, your group will be served a restaurant-quality meal without lifting a finger.
Hot tub + boot warmers + log fire: Need we say more?
Perfect for families or big groups: Up to 14 guests can stay under one roof—ideal for those big milestone getaways.
You’ll wake up to a hearty breakfast, come home to après-ski snacks, and end the day with a three-course dinner (plus pudding that makes you question your commitment to dry January). Oh, and someone else handles the dishes.
“We stayed at The Haybarn in January and honestly? I haven’t relaxed like that on a ski trip ever. No cooking, no shopping, just skiing and good times.”
— Emily C., London
Who’s It For?
Families who don’t want to cook (or clean)
Groups looking for one all-in price
Skiers who prefer to focus on the mountain, not the meals
🧑🍳 Want a Few Nights Off? Say Bonjour to Chalet Chef
Maybe you’re staying somewhere self-catered. Maybe you love cooking—but just not every night. Maybe you want a proper grown-up dinner one night and a kid-friendly feast the next. That’s where Chalet Chef comes in.
It’s the sweet spot between full catering and self-catering. You choose the nights, the group size, and the vibe—we’ll bring the food.
How It Works
Minimum 3 nights, up to 6 evenings
Groups of 8+, with enough kitchen space for prep
Chef arrives, cooks, serves, and clears up
Menus tailored to your taste & dietary needs
Whether you fancy duck confit and crème brûlée, or something more casual like roast chicken and tartiflette, the Chalet Chef menus are fresh, flavourful, and made for mountain appetites.
Prices
£55 per adult (3 courses)
£25 per child aged 9–14 (2 courses)
£18 per child aged 4–8 (2 courses)
£7.50 per infant aged 1–3 (2 courses)
Wine not included—but we’re happy to point you to the best local bottle shops.
“Honestly? It was the best meal we had all week, and it came with no shopping, no washing up, and no hangry kids. Worth every centime.”
— Thomas D., Marseille
🍳 All-Inclusive vs Chalet Chef: Which Option Fits You?
Let’s break it down:
Feature | The Haybarn (All-Inclusive) | Chalet Chef (Flexible Nights) |
---|---|---|
Meals included | Breakfast, afternoon tea, dinner | Dinner only |
Alcohol | Optional add-on | BYO |
Cleaning | Daily | Self-catered rest of the time |
Perfect for | Longer stays, full groups | Families, short breaks, flexibility fans |
Commitment | Full week | 3–6 evenings |
Still unsure? Ask yourself:
Are you staying more than 5 nights?
Is your group 8+ with enough kitchen/dining space?
Do you like cooking… but not every day?
Are you celebrating something special?
If you said yes to any of the above—you’re Chalet Chef material.
If you want total switch-off mode? Say hello to The Haybarn.
💬 Real Talk: Why Food Matters More Than You Think on a Ski Trip
Skiing burns through energy fast—and nothing tanks a holiday quicker than hangry kids, burnt pizza, or fighting over who’s on cleanup duty.
That’s why catering isn’t just a luxury—it’s smart holiday logistics.
Plus:
No shopping in a new town after a long travel day
No panic over missing ingredients
No cooking with dodgy hob setups or mystery ovens
And most importantly—no one stuck doing the dishes while everyone else hits the hot tub
🤔 What’s Your Perfect Foodie Fit?

Do you usually go catered or self-catered?

Your Property Deserves Better: Why Serre Chevalier Owners Are Choosing Go Serre Chevalier for Top-Tier Management
Why Go Serre Chevalier is changing the game for property owners in the valley
Finally, Someone Who’ll Really Look After Your Chalet
Why Go Serre Chevalier is changing the game for property owners in the valley
Ever get the feeling that no one cares about your property quite like you do?
That after all the hard work you put into creating a beautiful alpine home—be it for family getaways, seasonal escapes, or as an investment—you hand over the keys to a “property manager” who’s more spreadsheet than soul?
Bins missed. Guests lost. Maintenance half-done. And when something really goes wrong? Suddenly no one’s answering the phone.
Sound familiar?
It’s why we started Go Serre Chevalier.
To be the someone who actually gives a damn.
❄️ From Seasonal Let-Downs to Year-Round Care
We’re not just another agency with a pretty logo and vague promises. We live here. We ski here. We shop in the local market, grab our croissants from the boulangerie, and know the names of the people who clean, fix, and snow-clear our chalets—because they’re our team.
Since 2006, we’ve been running Go Montgenèvre—the premier property management and holiday service in the neighbouring resort. Over nearly two decades, we’ve turned countless second homes into thriving, well-managed rental properties, and turned many a nervous first-time owner into a chilled-out partner who knows we’ve got it covered.
Now we’re bringing that same formula—personal care, local expertise, and obsessive attention to detail—to Serre Chevalier.
And not just for the winter season. We’re here all year, keeping your property humming through peak snow, golden summer hikes, and those quiet interseason stretches most agencies vanish for.
🎯 Why We’re Different (And Why That Matters)
Here’s what we hear all the time from new partners:
“We just want someone to care about our place the way we do.”
And that’s the thing. You’re not asking for magic. You’re asking for:
Clean guests, not chaos
Honest reporting, not sugar-coated fluff
Proactive maintenance, not last-minute panic
Solid bookings and reliable income, without handing your chalet over to the lowest bidder
That’s where we come in.
With Go Serre Chevalier, you get:
A fully in-house team—cleaning, maintenance, check-ins, concierge—all local and trusted
A dedicated property manager who knows your chalet inside-out
A personal portal where you can track bookings, revenues, and service notes in real-time
Hands-on guest care that turns reviews into return bookings
Seasonal prep, deep cleans, and regular inspections—even when your place is empty
No copy-paste listings—we write, photograph, and market every property uniquely
Sound like what you’ve been hoping for?
🛠️ Our Services, Broken Down (But Built to Last)
Here’s what you can expect when you join the Go Serre Chevalier family:
🧽 Premium Property Management
Weekly inspections. Guest-ready setups. Linen service. A sparkling chalet every time.
Our cleaning team is in-house, trained to luxury standards, and takes pride in the details—because you can’t automate good instincts.
📅 Booking & Revenue Management
We don’t just fill dates—we fill them smartly.
We optimise pricing across multiple channels (Airbnb, Booking.com, and direct) and actively target the right guests for your property type, whether it’s family-centric, luxe and quiet, or built for budget-conscious adventurers.
🧑🔧 Maintenance You Don’t Have to Chase
Our maintenance isn’t reactive—it’s proactive.
Seasonal prep, minor fixes, snow clearance, firewood stocking… all handled by our year-round techs. You get photos, updates, and peace of mind.
🛎️ Concierge & Guest Care
Need raclette delivered? Lessons booked? A birthday cake ready in the fridge? We offer the most personalised guest support in the valley. Happy guests = 5-star reviews = return bookings.
👀 A Local’s Eye for What Works (and What Doesn’t)
Here’s the secret most agencies won’t tell you:
Great guest experiences don’t start at check-in—they start with owners like you.
That means staging your chalet for success. It means knowing which features add value (hot tub > hammock), which amenities guests rave about (filter coffee machine > pod), and how to photograph and present your space for the maximum “ooohhh” factor.
And unlike fly-by-night platforms or outsourced management companies, we’re on the ground, seeing trends shift in real time—from family preferences to post-pandemic cleanliness expectations.
We’re not guessing. We know what works in Serre Chevalier because we’re living it.
🤔 Thinking of Switching From Another Agency?
We get it. Changing property managers can feel awkward.
But if you're nodding along to any of the below, it might be time:
“I have no idea who’s even staying in my place this week.”
“They never answer my emails unless it’s urgent… for them.”
“The guest reviews used to be better.”
“I’m making less money but paying higher fees.”
“They just don’t seem to care.”
Here’s what a switch to Go Serre Chevalier looks like:
We start with a detailed chat about your property and goals
We inspect your chalet or apartment and give honest feedback
We handle the setup—photography, listings, services, handovers
You sit back, check your portal, and let us work our magic
No mess. No missed revenue. Just proper management, finally.
💬 Let’s Hear From You…
We’d love to know:
What’s been your biggest challenge as a chalet/apartment owner?
Have you had great (or not-so-great) experiences with property managers?
What would “peace of mind” look like for you?
Drop us a line or pop into the office—we’re always around, coffee in hand, boots by the door.

Obsessively Good Service... Taken to Hilarious New Heights — Why Everyone’s Talking About Go Serre Chevalier’s New Film
Why Everyone’s Talking About Go Serre Chevalier’s New Film
The Opening Hook: What do manually checking the quality of the piste groomers, over-zealous chalet hosts, and suspiciously enthusiastic chalet hosts have in common? They all feature in the brand-new campaign film from Go Serre Chevalier — and it’s equal parts absurd and heart-warming. You’ll laugh, you’ll relate, and you’ll probably want to pack your bags.
Why This Matters: More than just a laugh, the film cleverly taps into something real: that deep-down desire for a holiday where everything is taken care of. Go Serre Chevalier gets it. Whether you're a family trying to squeeze in quality time, a couple looking for a romantic retreat, or a group of friends chasing powder and party vibes, our new film brings to life what we’re all about: obsessive attention to detail, genuine care, and holidays where the hard part is choosing between fondue or raclette.
Behind the Camera: The Dream Team That Made It Happen This isn’t your average promo reel. Directed by Daniel Atkins and brought to life by the creative minds at Basecamp Media and Gaff Studio, the film has a distinctly cinematic feel with a cheeky twist. James Green’s cinematography and colour grading elevate every scene—whether it’s a sweeping drone shot or a hilariously awkward hot tub moment. Ryan Murray held it all in focus as 1st AC, while Calum Morrison captured the stills that bring the story off-screen. Drone master and editor Tye Moxey added movement and magic, with followcam wizard and producer Ben Hodson keeping things on (and off) piste.
The Big Idea: Comedy Meets Commitment The heart of the film? A lighthearted, over-the-top take on just how far we go to deliver seamless, unforgettable ski holidays. It’s a wink to our guests who know that behind the scenes, we’re quietly obsessing over your comfort, your plans, and even your backup gloves.
But here’s the thing: it’s not just about laughs. It’s a cheeky but honest reflection of the Go Serre Chevalier ethos. We handle the logistics, the local know-how, the keys, the lift passes, and even the spa bookings — so you can focus on reconnecting, relaxing, and making real memories.
Let’s Talk About Service... The Good Kind of Obsessive If you’ve ever had a transfer that just worked, ski passes waiting for you on arrival, or a host who knew you needed a raclette grill before you did — you’ll know the feeling. That’s what we mean by "obsessively good service."
And if you haven’t yet? Well, this film is your invitation.
Curious? Ask Yourself:

Serre Chevalier Heads to the World Stage: What the 2030 Winter Olympics Mean for Our Beloved Resort
The 2030 Winter Olympic Games are coming to the French Alps—and yes, Serre Chevalier is officially on the map as a host venue. Moguls. Aerials. Big Air. It's a thrilling moment for our little patch of paradise, and there's an electric buzz in the air.
Can one sleepy alpine valley host the world... and keep its soul?
The 2030 Winter Olympic Games are coming to the French Alps—and yes, Serre Chevalier is officially on the map as a host venue. Moguls. Aerials. Big Air. It's a thrilling moment for our little patch of paradise, and there's an electric buzz in the air.
But excitement often walks hand-in-hand with questions. And around here, we ask a lot of them.
Will the Olympics bring new energy, infrastructure, and investment to our valley—or strain our environment and stretch our community? Can an event this massive truly be "low-impact"? And what does it mean for the people who live, work, ski, and holiday here year in, year out?
This post is our love letter to Serre Chevalier, our cautious optimism for the future, and a no-nonsense look at what this once-in-a-generation event could mean—for all of us.
🏔 A Little Resort with Big Dreams
Let’s start with the basics.
Serre Chevalier, perched proudly in the Guisane Valley near Briançon, is already one of France’s most beloved ski destinations. With 250km of slopes, a strong snow record, and sunny skies more than 300 days a year, it attracts a loyal crowd of families, powder hunters, wellness seekers, and thrill-chasers.
Now, in 2030, Serre Chevalier will take on a new role—Olympic host—sharing the global spotlight with neighbours like Montgenèvre and the Côte d’Azur.
🥶 So, which events are coming to Serre Che?
Mogul Skiing
Aerials
Big Air
That’s three fast-paced, adrenaline-fuelled disciplines, likely to bring a global audience (and some serious airtime on TV) to our slopes.
Just up the road in Montgenèvre? Add in Halfpipe, Slopestyle, Ski/Snowboard Cross, and two Paralympic events—Snowboard Cross and Banked Slalom.
Suddenly, the Hautes-Alpes have gone from quiet charm to Olympic power player.
🎉 The Upside: A Moment of Pride—and Progress
Let’s not downplay it—this is huge. For ski lovers. For locals. For fans of French alpine culture.
Here’s why we’re (cautiously) excited:
1. Spotlight on the South
The southern Alps often play second fiddle to glitzier resorts in the north. But make no mistake—Serre Chevalier has world-class skiing, world-class hospitality, and a deep cultural heart. The Olympics will show that off to the world.
2. Better Infrastructure
New and improved transport links. Upgraded lift systems. Smoother roads. These investments don’t vanish when the Games end—they make every future holiday here better.
3. New Energy for Local Businesses
From restaurants to rentals to ski schools, Olympic traffic brings opportunity. More visitors = more bookings. But with the right management, that doesn’t have to mean chaos—it can mean sustainable growth.
4. Inspiration for Future Generations
Picture the local kids watching Big Air legends launch into the sky—on their very own slopes. The legacy of an Olympic moment isn’t medals—it’s memories that shape dreams.
🌍 Let’s Talk About the Snow-Covered Elephant in the Room: The Environment
Okay, deep breath.
Because alongside the hype, there are very real concerns. And it would be disingenuous not to talk about them.
Hosting the Olympic Games—no matter how “sustainable” the pitch—is a massive undertaking. And mountain communities like ours know just how fragile these ecosystems really are.
So, what are people worried about?
Construction: New venues mean new buildings. Will they respect the alpine architecture? Will they disrupt biodiversity?
Traffic and Tourism Impact: Can our small villages handle Olympic crowds without harming the quality of life for locals?
Carbon Footprint: What about the emissions from travel, snowmaking, lighting, and more?
Post-Games Ghost Town Syndrome: Will new infrastructure be used long-term—or become empty shells once the cameras pack up?
These are not small questions. And they deserve serious answers.
⚖️ A New Kind of Olympics?
The 2030 French Alps Olympic Committee has promised a new model—low-impact, eco-conscious, and community-driven.
That means:
Using existing venues wherever possible
Building with RE 2020 standards for thermal comfort and energy efficiency
Encouraging soft mobility—bikes, EVs, and shuttles over cars
Supporting local employment, not outsourcing
Preserving biodiversity with things like green roofs and wildlife corridors
Prioritising legacy use for every bit of new infrastructure
Is it perfect? No. Is it promising? Absolutely.
And in Serre Chevalier, where sustainability is already part of the resort’s DNA (we generate our own renewable energy here, remember?), the hope is that this can truly become a model for how Olympic dreams and environmental stewardship can coexist.
🧩 What Does This Mean for Guests?
If you love Serre Chevalier—or are just now falling for it—here’s how the Olympics might impact your mountain holiday:
📆 Timing
The Games take place in February 2030, but expect buzz (and possibly crowds) throughout that winter. Booking early will be smart—and we’re here to help with that.
🛏 Accommodation
Yes, things will book up fast. But it also means new places to stay (like the recently announced MMV Club Residence opening in 2025) and improved standards across the board.
🎟 Activities & Atmosphere
Imagine skiing your usual run in the morning, then heading down to watch the world’s best launch themselves into Big Air glory just minutes away. The energy? Electric.
🤝 Community Spirit
The Olympics might bring more visitors—but we believe it’ll also bring more pride, more collaboration, and more moments worth sharing.
🤔 What Do You Think?
This is your resort too—whether you live here, visit annually, or are considering your first trip.

From the Heart of the Alps: How Go Serre Chevalier is Redefining Mountain Holidays
You’re not just booking a ski trip. You’re booking peace of mind, laughter-filled memories, and your best mountain moments yet. Welcome to Go Serre Chevalier.
Have you ever been on a ski trip where everything just... worked?
The skis were waxed, the transfer was waiting, the raclette was melting, and the wine was already breathing. Your kids were laughing with their instructor, your gear was ready by the door, and somehow—miraculously—your stress didn’t come with you up the mountain.
It doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because someone behind the scenes made it their mission to obsess over every tiny detail.
That someone is us. We’re Go Serre Chevalier. And we’re here to make your next Alpine escape everything it should be—and absolutely nothing it shouldn’t.
🚀 From Montgenèvre to Serre Chevalier: A Natural Step Forward
We’ve been around the block. Or rather, up and down the pistes.
Since 2006, Go Montgenèvre has been the go-to operator for thousands of mountain-loving families, couples, adventurers, and property owners looking for a seamless experience in Montgenèvre. We built our reputation on two simple things: unmatched guest service and hassle-free property management.
And now, we’re bringing that same passion to Serre Chevalier—a resort we’ve loved, skied, and explored for years. With Go Serre Chevalier, we’re not starting from scratch. We’re building on nearly two decades of experience delivering next-level alpine holidays.
Because if there's one thing we've learned, it's this:
👉 People don’t come to the mountains to deal with problems.
They come to reconnect. To breathe deep. To laugh over fondue, race their mates down the slope, and share stories by the fire.
We take care of the logistics, so you can focus on what really matters.
