Cheval Blanc

Created in the spirit of family photo album, Cheval Blanc brings to life one of the world’s most exclusive and exceptional hospitality endeavors in intimate, poignant detail – a lasting souvenir to the brand’s properties. Always referred to as “Maisons” and designed as a family home, each hotel has its own identity with absolute privacy and bespoke service to create endless memories.

Cheval Blanc’s journey began in 2006 with the opening of its first chalet in Courchevel, France. Since then, the brand has expanded its legacy across six destinations, with a seventh soon to follow in Sardinia, along the shores of Costa Smeralda. These distinctive establishments are beautifully captured in the Cheval Blanc volume, showcasing the brand’s properties in Courchevel, Randheli, St-Barth, St-Tropez, Paris, and the Seychelles.

Like guests on arrival, readers are immediately immersed in Cheval Blanc’s hallmark “Art de Recevoir” (“the art of welcoming”) and unparalleled sense of detail. These are not just extraordinary destinations, they are sensorial experiences, every aspect choreographed to provide a symphony of ultra-luxury and bold modernity, local craftsmanship and timeless elegance, made-to-measure service and unexpected moments of marvel. To continue the sense of a private travel diary, handwritten notes can be found throughout the narrative, as if the discreet musings of a trusted friend or family member on their stays.

These Maisons built by renowned architects such as Jean-Michel Gathy, Jacques Grange, Jean-Michel Wilmotte and Peter Marino, share differences born from their specific histories and location. A family chalet in Courchevel, a Provençal home in Saint-Tropez, a Parisian icon within the historic walls of La Samaritaine—each story is an opportunity to celebrate the soul of a place without altering it, with some signatures a common through- line in all six destinations. And, of course, there are the superlative manners and etiquette transmitted by rigorous training—gestures, eloquence, and an attitude that is neither formal nor familiar but rather full of concern.

Above all, in these pages, as in these Maisons, the goal is to introduce readers to their new favorite destination, a place cherished as much or even more than their childhood home. “Our clients come here for a positive interlude, to shut the door, for just a moment, on a page of their daily lives and enter the joyous but very real world of Cheval Blanc,” says Arnaud Donckele, the three-starred chef of Cheval Blanc St-Tropez and Cheval Blanc Paris.

Book Care Guidelines

To preserve the beauty and longevity of your book, we recommend the following:

* Handle with Care: Always use clean, dry hands to avoid transferring oils or dirt onto the pages and cover.
* Protect from Sunlight: Avoid direct sunlight, which may cause fading or discoloration over time.
* Store Properly: Keep books in a cool, dry place, upright on a flat surface, and away from heat or moisture.
* Dust Gently: Use a soft, dry cloth or feather duster to clean the cover and page edges.
* Open with Caution: Do not force the spine flat, especially on new books, to prevent damage to the binding.
* Avoid Food and Drinks: Keep books away from liquids and food to prevent accidental spills and stains.
* ⁠Less Spine Stress: Bookstands support the spine without forcing it flat, which helps prevent cracking or warping.
