Market analysis

Why Courchevel is
the premier rental market in the Alps

Courchevel holds a unique position in the alpine short-term rental landscape. The only resort in the world to concentrate such a density of exceptional chalets, international clientele and ultra-premium weekly rates, it generates rental yields structurally higher than any other French ski destination.

A market driven by international demand

Over 60% of Courchevel 1850 guests are international — British, Russian, Middle Eastern and American. This diversity smooths domestic seasonality effects and maintains strong demand even during periods less favoured by French families. The season runs from the first week of December through to Easter — approximately 18 to 20 billable weeks.

An exceptionally diverse property portfolio

Courchevel offers a remarkable range of property types: investment studios from 25m² in 1550, family apartments for 4–6 guests in 1650 residences, and exceptional chalets of 200 to 800m² in 1850. This market depth allows ALPÉON to manage portfolios of all sizes to the same standard of excellence.

A highly advantageous seasonality

Christmas week (24 Dec – 1 Jan), February school holidays and the April bridges concentrate 50–55% of annual rental revenue. These premium weeks command weekly rates of £8,000 to £50,000 depending on surface area and location. Outside these peaks, Courchevel maintains occupancy rates above 70% thanks to its international clientele and consistently excellent snow conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know
about property management in Courchevel

How does the guaranteed rent model work in Courchevel?
ALPÉON pays you a fixed rent every month, regardless of the occupancy rate of your property. Whether your chalet is booked for 30 or 90 nights in the season, your monthly income remains identical and is contractually guaranteed before the start of each season. The amount is determined during a property assessment and does not vary — even in the event of late snowfall, mass cancellations or an exceptional slow season.
What rental yield can I expect from a chalet in Courchevel 1850?
A well-managed chalet in Courchevel 1850 generates on average £8,000 to £20,000 per week during peak season, and can reach £30,000 to £50,000 during Christmas, New Year or the Pyrotechnics Festival. Over a full winter season (18 weeks), gross income for a 200m² chalet ranges from £100,000 to £200,000. Our estimator calculates a personalised projection based on your property's exact characteristics and our market history.
What are the tax implications for UK and international owners?
Rental income from a furnished property in France is subject to French taxation under the LMNP regime (non-professional furnished letting). UK residents benefit from the France-UK double taxation treaty, which prevents double taxation. You can opt for the micro-BIC regime (50% flat-rate deduction, or 71% for classified tourist accommodation) or the actual expense regime with full charge deductions and property depreciation. We recommend consulting a specialist alpine tax adviser — we can provide introductions.
Which villages of Courchevel does ALPÉON cover?
ALPÉON operates across the entire Courchevel domain: Courchevel 1850 (Saint-Bon-Tarentaise), Courchevel 1650 (Moriond), Courchevel 1550, Courchevel Village (1500) and Le Praz (1300). Each village has a distinct guest profile, rental rate and seasonality. Our local team knows the precise specifics of each neighbourhood and adapts the rental strategy to your exact location.
How does ALPÉON market my property to international guests?
ALPÉON distributes your property across 20+ booking platforms (Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO, Plum Guide, Mr & Mrs Smith…), 50+ specialist luxury travel agency contracts and a direct high-net-worth client database. We specifically target UK, American, Middle Eastern and Scandinavian markets — the core international clientele of Courchevel 1850 — with localised listings and targeted campaigns in each market.
Is my property insured during the management period?
Yes. As your direct tenant under our model, ALPÉON holds comprehensive professional liability and property damage insurance that covers your property throughout all guest stays. Your property is fully protected and we maintain it to the highest standard — we treat every asset as if it were our own. Full insurance details are provided at contract stage.
How quickly will my property start generating income?
Once the contract is signed and the property assessed, ALPÉON typically has your property live across all platforms within 2–3 weeks. Guaranteed rent payments begin from the contracted season start date. Properties signed before October are generally ready in time for the December ski season — our busiest and most lucrative period. We handle all setup, photography, platform accounts and listing creation.
