If you’re planning a summer escape to the French Alps, Chamonix offers more than just incredible mountain views and fresh alpine air – it’s also the perfect destination for families and groups of friends looking to relax, reconnect and enjoy the outdoors in comfort.
At Chamonix All Year, we offer a handpicked collection of summer-ready chalets designed for outdoor living, with private gardens, sunny terraces, and BBQs with mountain views. Whether you’re here for hiking, biking, or simply soaking up the sun, these chalets give you space to unwind and make the most of every summer moment.
Looking for a chalet where you can relax on a garden terrace and enjoy a BBQ?
Nothing says summer like a long lunch outdoors or an evening BBQ as the sun sets over Mont Blanc. Many of our chalets are made for this – with plenty of space for kids to play, dogs to roam, and everyone to gather together in the fresh mountain air.
You might find yourself relaxing at Chalet Panache, a modern property with stylish outdoor seating, a BBQ, and breathtaking views, or enjoying a peaceful evening at Chalet Le Tricouni, which is perfect for families thanks to its secure garden and inviting terrace. Chalet Union is a great choice for larger groups, offering ample space inside and out, while Chalet des Souchettes provides a tranquil setting with a lush garden ideal for little ones or pets to stretch their legs.
For more traditional alpine charm, Chalet des Cimes combines rustic features with a view-filled terrace and BBQ for summer dining. If you’re after convenience with comfort, Chalet Le Tremplin is just a short stroll from Chamonix centre and features a welcoming outdoor set-up for group meals. Chalet Martinique is a calm, pet-friendly garden chalet ideal for summer stays, while Chalet du Dard offers spacious indoor-outdoor living with a dedicated dining area for those long, sunny evenings.
You’ll also love Chalet Bonnabelle, with its panoramic views and beautifully landscaped garden, and Chalet des Amis, which lives up to its name by providing the perfect setting for friends to gather and unwind. For those looking for privacy and a serene escape, Chalet de l’Ours offers a secluded spot where you can truly disconnect – with a BBQ and outdoor dining area to make the most of every summer sunset.
These chalets are in high demand during the warmer months – especially for family holidays in Chamonix, group getaways, and pet-friendly travel.
Bike-friendly chalets for summer adventures
Cycling in Chamonix is more popular than ever, with epic road climbs, scenic e-bike tours, and world-class MTB trails drawing riders from around the globe. If you’re planning to bring your bikes, several of our chalets offer dedicated bike storage or secure garages – so you can rest easy knowing your gear is safe and close at hand.
Among the most bike-friendly options is Chalet Couttet, a luxurious chalet that blends stylish interiors with practical features like bike storage and a spacious garage – ideal for serious cyclists or families travelling with sports gear.
Chalet Montana is another favourite for summer cyclists – set in a tranquil spot with beautiful surroundings and secure bike storage that doesn’t compromise on alpine charm. And if you’re after something spacious and stylish, Chalet du Goûter ticks all the boxes with contemporary design, bike storage, and a layout ideal for large groups.
Many of our chalets that feature BBQs and terraces also double up as great cycling bases – like Chalet Panache and Chalet Le Tremplin – giving you the best of both worlds: adventure during the day, and laid-back evenings with a view.
