Why Book a Chalet for Your Summer Family Holiday in Les Gets

Les Gets in Summer is a hidden gem for families. The resort, known for its winter sports, transforms into a vibrant alpine playground during the warmer months. Booking a chalet here means more space, better value, and access to a huge variety of activities and local events—all in a stunning mountain setting. Here's why a chalet is the ideal base for your summer holiday.

1. Space to Breathe and Relax

Chalets offer the kind of space hotels can’t match—perfect for families. With multiple bedrooms, large living areas, and private gardens or terraces, everyone can relax in their own way.

Need inspiration? At Chalet Valerie, you can soak in panoramic views of the valley from your terrace. Chalet Getois, set slightly outside the centre, offers peaceful mornings surrounded by nature. And for kids to run around freely, the large garden at Chalet R'Mize is a dream.

2. Better Value and Flexible Budget

A summer holiday in the Alps is significantly more affordable than a winter ski break. Not only are chalet prices lower, but many summer activities in Les Gets are free or low-cost. For example, families can enjoy free access to many lifts and attractions with the Multipass, and events like outdoor concerts, children’s shows, and village games are often free to attend.

Chalets also let you manage your meals, helping keep your holiday budget-friendly. With options ranging from modern apartments like Rêve des Neiges in the centre to larger family chalets, there’s something for every budget.

3. Endless Family Activities at Your Doorstep

Summer in Les Gets is packed with things to do—and staying in a chalet means you're close to it all. Walk down from Chalet Lunar to reach Lac des Écoles, where kids can enjoy the Wibit inflatable water park while parents relax lakeside.

Explore hiking trails, mountain biking (even for beginners!), mini-golf, or the tree-top adventure park. With everything so close, you can take a morning adventure, head back to your chalet for lunch, and set off again for an afternoon activity.

And don't miss the summer events! From mountain bike competitions to weekly children's workshops and open-air concerts, Les Gets knows how to keep families entertained. Check out our full Les Gets Summer Agenda for event details.

4. Live the Alpine Experience

Staying in a chalet gives you a deeper connection to the local culture. You'll wake up to the sound of cowbells, pick up your croissants from the village bakery, and enjoy long dinners on the terrace with mountain views.

Many chalets reflect the traditional Savoyard style—wooden beams, alpine charm, and cosy interiors. It’s a chance to experience the Alps as a local, not just a tourist.

And when you're ready to stretch your legs, Les Gets offers some of the region’s most scenic trails. Read our full guide to hiking trails in Les Gets to plan your next family walk.
