Vie, Verbier

Designed by du Boulay Projects, the establishment is housed in a contemporary wooden chalet that offers panoramic views of the Alps and the surrounding valley.

Vie Montagne spans two floors, each offering distinct experiences. The ground floor features a spacious bar area with an open kitchen and counter dining, promoting a communal and interactive dining atmosphere. The first floor houses a cocktail bar, providing a more intimate setting for guests. The interior design incorporates natural materials such as aged wood and stone, complemented by neutral tones and luxurious textiles, creating a warm and inviting environment.
