Chalet Makini

Lakeside sanctuary with an extraordinary private spa.

Chalet Makini enjoys a privileged setting beside a tranquil mountain lake in the exclusive Le Hameau area, one of Verbier’s most discreet residential addresses. Wrap-around terraces and balconies open onto views across the water toward the surrounding peaks, while Les Esserts beginner slopes and the Savoleyres lift remain moments away. Recently expanded to 1,150 m², the chalet artfully layers reclaimed timber, natural stone, oak flooring and contemporary art, creating an atmosphere that feels rooted in alpine tradition yet distinctly modern.

At the heart of the main living space, an 18th-century stone fireplace anchors generous seating arranged for convivial gatherings before and after dinner. The dining room makes its own statement beneath vaulted ceilings and a cascading glass chandelier, with a well-equipped kitchen alongside. A notable wine cellar invites guests to pair mountain evenings with exceptional vintages.

Seven en-suite double bedrooms sleep up to 14 guests across three levels. Two master-style rooms command lake or mountain views, with private balconies, dressing areas and bathrooms featuring Jacuzzi bathtubs, separate showers and twin vanities. Five additional bedrooms open onto shared balconies or terraces, ensuring every guest enjoys a private connection to the alpine air.

Makini’s defining indulgence is its lower-level spa. An indoor pool with Switzerland’s first integrated Sicis lighting system creates a dramatic glow while swimming, complemented by a hammam, Finnish sauna with red-light therapy, hot tub, fully equipped gym and dedicated massage room. A water wall, fountain and Japanese-style floating steps lend the space a sense of calm rarely found in a private chalet.

Entertainment flows through three distinct living areas, each with its own fireplace and two featuring pull-down projector screens. Whether children settle into a film, adults linger by the fire or guests seek a quieter corner away from the main room, the layout offers generous room to spread out.

Additional amenities include a private ski room, laundry room, integrated sound system, and parking for four cars—two exterior and two in the internal garage.

For those ready to begin the journey toward an unforgettable Verbier escape, the Dolce Villa team is on hand to assist with chalet selection and seamless travel arrangements.
