CHALET GRAND-DUC
Completed in December 2022, Chalet Grand-Duc is the most recent edition to the Morzine luxury chalet scene situated in the heart of Portes de Soleil by the Chablais Alps. The location of the chalet was carefully chosen to achieve a real sense of alpine space while remaining within easy reach of resort amenities, giving guests the luxury of seclusion without isolation.
The luxurious escape offers five bedrooms and bathrooms supplied by Lusso, and a spacious living area with stunning panoramic views and southwest facing exposure. The property is built as a traditional timber frame chalet, using only the highest quality natural materials, with an style interior that blends traditional alpine charm with contemporary design.
Enabling you to enjoy a relaxing soak with a view of the French Alps, our distinctive Egg Shell bath sits beautifully in the Roc d’Enfer master suite, complemented by our Gunmetal Floorstanding Bath Shower Mixer Tap and Thinn Wall Hung Basin and gunmetal basin tap.

CARLTON PENTHOUSE
Famous around the world, the chocolate-box chalet-style resort of St Moritz in the Graubunden region of Switzerland is a destination of near-incomparable luxury. As well as world-leading skiing from November to April, St Moritz is also home to the infamous Cresta Toboggan Run, while locals are fond of racing horses on the frozen lake.
For off-piste luxury, choose the Carlton Penthouse, which is located on the top floor of the Carlton St Moritz. With a 360 degree views overlooking the frozen lake, Engadine mountains and the village of St Moritz, the penthouse can accommodate up to nine guests and features state of the art technology throughout.
Designed by Swiss interior designer Carlo Rampazzi, it includes three spacious bedrooms with design nods to the region's chalets and cabins, with wood furnishings and neutral colours providing the quintessential Alpine aesthetic.

KI NISEKO
The penthouse suite of Ki Niseko may have one of the most spectacular mountain view of any ski resort in Asia - and possibly the world. The majestic Mount Yotei stratovolcano commands the view from the floor-to-ceiling windows and balcony, which has a luxurious hot tub to make the most of the view as the sun sets.
With five bedrooms incorporating pastel colours and wooden flooring and furniture, guests have lots of space to unwind after a day of adrenaline-fuelled adventures. The location is also just 100 metres away from the high-speed gondola and 50 metres from the GoSnow international snowsports school, while the slopes are right outside the front door of this ski in ski-out penthouse.
To mirror the traditional charm of Chalet Grand-Duc, discover our Egg Shell Freestanding Stone Bath, exclusively available from Lusso.
