WEATHER: so far the weather this summer has been sunny & dry, with an occasional thunderstorm. Locals hope or more rain...(March 2nd 2018)
Last winter (2018) has been a great season for wintersport-fans with an accumulated snow fall of almost 4 meters. This made for outstanding ski conditions which stretched the ski seasonwell into April.
RENOVATIONS: The major chalet renovations were completed by mid-December 2017. Le Iceberg now has a 3rd bathroom, an integrated, cozy bunk-bed, a huge south-facing sun-deck and a spectacular new sauna with window & garden access. In Spring 2018 we re-did the garden and terrace, put in steps (from the balcony to the terrace) and planted a extensive herb-garden for our guests. Check out the pictures below to follow the renovations that started end of August 2017.
VILLAGE NEWS: Check out photos below for a few nice moments around Chalet Le Iceberg: how a helicopter landed & parked in the village street for a medical emergency (which turned out not to be one); sharing our garden with a huge buck and a deer (mutual encounter over breakfast); ever changing views from our balcony; the change-over from Fall to Winter that took place these last few weeks.
WHAT
OUR GUESTS HAVE TO SAY:
"A lovely spacious house, personal, with
all amenities and services provided. Inspired, with care for details, which is
the most important thing there is (I think). A beautiful view time and
time again, no matter which direction you look, no matter what time of day (or
night). Enchanting nature, pure & clean. We are in the habit of
commenting and providing a figure on a scale of 0-10. Le Iceberg and
Maarten get 10 in our opinion."

"We have enjoyed the sauna, what a great spacious sauna! And
that window! The bedroom with the new bunk bed also completely
top. Iceberg
was already fantastic and has now become even more beautiful, the absolutely
perfect place for us. We feel completely at home as always. Thank you for
sharing this with us!"

"This is a charming Swiss chalet, with a
high altitude location with gorgeous views from every room. Our teenage boys
(with a dad with a teenage heart for skiing!) absolutely loved staying here -
especially the option to ski from Les Collons to Verbier and back - all in a
comfortable day of skiing. The two lockers at the local ski lift that kept
boots warm - and skis were where you wanted them in the morning - was perfect.
The huge wrap-around veranda to enjoy the sun shine was simply glorious!
The three bedrooms on the lower level allowed our boys a room each - they were
thrilled, and even commented on the view, their ability to see stars at night,
and the views of mountains in every direction. The bedroom closets were
empty - it was so convenient to take clothes out of one’s luggage. We do Air
BnB a lot, so it is especially nice to rent a home, prepared in this thoughtful
manner. And there was an excellent strong wifi, which was appreciated immensely
by those working or not... Lastly, the directions from and communication with
Maarten were exemplary; he was very accommodating and understanding with all of
our e-mail queries. Maarten also provided information folders (at the chalet)
that included lists of restaurants, hikes, spas, attractions, tips... these
were a wonderful bonus. We look forward to hopefully finding this chalet
free again in future, so that we can come back and stay here at different times
of the year --- Thank you, Maarten for sharing your home so that we indeed had
a great Christmas - and a big thank you for the special treat of a decorated
Christmas tree and chocolates that greeted us on arrival!"
