After an opening in December 2017, the Club Med Grand Massif Samoens Morillon is expanding this winter with the opening of new chalet apartments! Experience a mountain chalet in contemporary designer cocoons perched above a spectacular valley.
Exceptional chalets in the spirit of an architect villa, with clean lines and Scandinavian design.
