Chalet cleaning and changeovers in Méribel

Chalets under rental management, many owners based abroad. We drive up from Chambéry every Saturday, with equipment and teams sized for changeover day.

01 The resort

Méribel, 1,450 m

Méribel has a high density of chalets under rental management and a historically British clientele, whose stays follow the English school calendar — a few days off the French holidays. In practice, this makes for very busy changeover Saturdays, including outside the French peaks.

  • About 95 km from Chambéry, 1 hr 25 by road
  • The central resort of the ski area, between Courchevel and Val Thorens
  • Season usually from mid-December to mid-April
  • British school holidays fall differently: busy changeovers outside the French peaks

02 Changeover Saturday

What happens in a single day

In a resort, the cleaning is not the hard part: everything happens at once. Departures in the morning, arrivals in the afternoon, across every property on the same day.

  1. Before the seasonWe record the number of properties, beds and bathrooms, and set the number of teams needed to hold the day.
  2. The day before, FridayThe next day’s schedule is fixed on confirmed departures, not on the forecast made at the start of the season.
  3. Saturday morningTeams leave from the valley, 1 hr 25 by road. Each property’s condition is recorded before anything is touched.
  4. Saturday afternoonProperties ready before arrivals, with a time-stamped photo report for each one.
  5. At closingEnd-of-season deep clean: bedding, textiles, windows, cupboards, common areas.

03 What we do

Our work at altitude

A narrower list than in the valley: in resorts, we look after holiday accommodation and its common areas, not private homes.

Residence changeoversStudios and apartments between two stays, on changeover day
Chalets and large propertiesFull turnaround, bedding and textiles included
Common areasLobbies, corridors, lifts and ski rooms, daily or weekly
GlazingPicture windows and façades, between stays or at the end of the season
Season opening and closingReady before the first guests, deep clean at closing

In resorts, we only work on a season contract: a one-off changeover 95 km away cannot be done properly. In the Chambéry valley, holiday lets between guests are handled by Hipla Conciergerie (site in French).

Frequently asked questions

Méribel — your questions

Can you handle several chalets on the same Saturday?

Yes, provided we have the schedule before the season starts. It is the only variable that really matters: knowing the number of properties in advance lets us size the team. We would rather turn down one more property than accept it and rush the last one of the day.

Do you work with owners who live abroad?

Yes, a large share of Méribel owners do not live in France. The organisation does not change: schedule set at the start of the season, a sign-off photo after each visit, and immediate reporting with photos if something is broken or stops working. You do not need to be there.

Do you also cover the quiet weeks?

Yes, and they are the easiest to cover. January and March outside the holidays are also the best time for textile or carpet cleaning, which needs hours of drying time that no changeover Saturday can offer.
