Méribel (Auvergne Rhône Alpes)

Known as France's third largest region, the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes is also one of the most sought-after for lovers of winter sports and gourmet cuisine. Its dynamic towns, idyllic landscapes and local dishes revisited by Michelin-starred chefs make it a destination ready to delight every taste bud. What's more, the region is home to the 3 Vallées ski area, the largest in the world.

It was in the heart of this promising region that the Méribel ski area was created. Like Courchevel, the ski resort was born of a desire to introduce local customers to this mountain sport. Peter Lindsay is credited with the development of Méribel: the Scottish major made it his new winter resort. Highly coveted from the outset, Méribel is now the promised land of a cosmopolitan, high-end clientele, who appreciate its prestige and international renown.

Thanks to the initiative of a few prominent local families, such as the Rothschild family for Courchevel, certain resorts in the Rhône-Alpes region have been able to benefit from valuable investment to boost their development. Luxury hotels and sports resorts in no way detract from the protected areas and unspoilt nature of the region, which boasts 7 UNESCO World Heritage sites, 2 national parks and 51 nature reserves.

In Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, culture is not to be outdone, with 140 accredited museums and 400 annual festivals. The region's 94 Michelin-starred chefs offer top-notch restaurants that sublimate local products through traditional know-how. They make Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes France's leading gastronomic region.

The region and its real estate market

The attractiveness of the metropolises and the proximity of the European borders serve the Méribel real estate market well. While the resort is home to 2,000 summer residents, nearly 20,000 visitors are expected during the winter season. In fact, Méribel knows how to capitalize on the dynamism of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, attracting visitors to an exceptional setting in every season.

Halfway between glitz and tradition, Méribel offers a setting that is highly prized by a wealthy clientele. The resort stands out from its neighbors, Megève and Courchevel, for its breathtaking ski area. It enjoys an advantageous location in the heart of the 3 Valleys, and although English visitors are in the majority, high-end customers can be seduced by Méribel's discreet charm. This makes the resort a haven for visitors and investors alike, both for its high profitability potential and for its harmonious blend of nature and luxury.
