Perched between 1,500 and 3,000 meters above sea level, Crans-Montana is one of Switzerland’s most exclusive destinations. The resort consists of two main hubs, Crans and Montana, located about a mile apart and connected by a stretch of low-rise buildings. These modern structures blend with the stunning Alpine surroundings, though their architecture is more contemporary than the traditional chalet style. While Crans boasts high-end stores, luxurious hotels, and spectacular nightlife, Montana offers a more laid-back atmosphere, giving each area its own distinct identity.
Our luxury chalets in Crans-Montana range from ski-in/ski-out retreats to expansive estates for larger groups.
