Luxury rentals in Rhone-Alpes

Villa Les Capitaines

This striking hilltop estate is nestled into the picturesque countryside with dramatic mountain views. A broad entryway invites you inside where exposed stone walls, vaulted ceilings, and a stained glass skylight catch your attention. Grab a book from the library, gather around the antique fireplace, or indulge in an effortlessly delicious charcuterie board at the sheltered alfresco table. Exquisitely decorated with a distinct Provençal aesthetic, the interior design scheme features a creamy palette with soft accents, breezy fabrics, and wooden décor; it’s the epitome of understated French elegance. Arched windows and doors allow sunlight to stream in; after dark, dangling chandeliers illuminate the space. From the living room, step outside onto a vast terrace that overlooks the lush gardens. A natural fringe of privacy engulfs the property with olive and fruit trees, pines, cypresses, and manicured hedges scattered about. Channel an Italian-inspired dinner in the pizza oven, preparing toppings in the outdoor kitchenette.  A woven hammock, strung between two towering oaks, offers a leisurely spot to chill out in the afternoon. The allure of the turquoise pool draws you in for a refreshing swim. Uncork a bottle of vin rouge to savor once the sun goes down—perhaps while sitting at the wrought iron table on the grass or a plump chaise lounger. A pétanque court keeps the good times rolling. Gordes, one of the region’s most well-known cliffside villages, is just a 5-minute drive from the villa. Venture to nearby vineyards, camera-ready lavender fields, and markets vending local produce.

Chalet on the rocks

The French Alps get a sleek frame of contemporary architecture at Chalet on the Rocks. Perched in the forest above Chamonix, this beautifully designed vacation rental commands breathtaking views of Mont-Blanc, the Aiguille du Midi and the Glacier des Bossons. Even better, its location puts you within walking distance of the center of Chamonix and just a short drive from some of the area’s best skiing. Your holiday at this luxury chalet includes daily breakfast and housekeeping. When you’re not out on the slopes, enjoy the mountain views from a sunny terrace with loungers and a barbecue, or indulge in a soak in the al-fresco hot tub. There’s also an indoor sauna, as well as satellite TV, Apple TV and Wi-Fi. The villa has the same sloping roof and wood paneling as traditional mountain lodges, but its pared-down lines and glass walls give it a modern twist. At its heart is an open-concept great room with a cozy sitting area arranged by a fireplace, a dining table for twelve and a fully equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar. Chalet on the Rocks has one bedroom with a king bed and private balcony, and four bedrooms with double beds. All five bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, making the property ideal for a group of friends or extended family who want both time together and some privacy. If you’ve come to the Alps for the skiing, you’re in luck—you’ll find Le Brevent lift, Mont-Blanc Ski and the Aiguille du Midi all just a short drive from the chalet. For everything from a quick après-ski drink to a full honeymoon-worthy dinner, walk or drive into the center of Chamonix, then return to your own retreat in the hills and watch the lights of the town twinkle below.

Villa Sunset

Even though the walk to town only takes a minute, you still deserve a reward. So, wander the streets of Gordes until you find the perfect cafe to sit down for your morning coffee and a croissant that’s still warm from the oven. Before returning to your 17th-century hillside-home, stop in at a local market, bakery, or cheese shop to pick up an afternoon snack to enjoy on Sunset Villa’s valley-view terrace. Widely considered “the most beautiful hilltop village in Provence,” Gordes is steeped in authenticity. The white and gray stone buildings, of which Sunset is interwoven, wind their way up the hill, creating one of the most postcard-worthy views in Fr1ance. Exposed beams, rugged stone, and wood furniture complete the elegant, Old-World atmosphere inside. Outside, lush greenery from the garden climbs the stonewalls of the terrace providing shade for afternoon naps and privacy during alfresco dinners. When you’re not out exploring Gordes, Villa Sunset’s spacious layout is perfect for nights in with friends and family. Smart TV, a Sonos sound system, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning will make sure your party is cool and connected. After a formal dinner, unwind with a cocktail or a pop open a bottle of wine from a local vineyard. Then, watch the sunset as you splash around in the swimming pool. The architecturally astounding village of Gordes is a photographers dream and a vacation destination all its own. However, this beautiful setting may inspire you to keep exploring. Luckily, the bustling city of Avignon and the canals of L’Isle-sur-la-Sorge are within a few kilometers. And, if you’re looking to sneak away for an afternoon on the golf course, Provence Country Club’s eighteen-hole is a great way to enjoy the dynamic views of the French countryside.
