Mountain Vacations – Grandeur of Villas Framed by Sky and Summit

Find mountain vacation rentals and mountain view villas with trail access, parking, and clear views in Switzerland, France, Italy, Japan , Austria, Spain, Turkey, UK and beyond. Our homes announce themselves before you step inside: the pure air cools, gravel crunches and the sky opens. Altitude has its own design code - stone that stores heat, timber with a trace of cedar and glass frames that hand you a hundred miles of view. Here, mountain vacations promise mornings that run clean and blue; afternoons drift across sun-warmed terraces; and nights are fire, velvet, and stars. We promise you a vantage point with an address, where privacy is measured in acres, silence you can actually hear, and a horizon that changes every hour.

 

Behind each villa stands our team, led by Founder John Paul, whose love for mountains and exploration fuels this curated list of mountain view villas. Every property is vetted by people who understand altitude, architecture, and attention - so your mountain holidays come wrapped in thoughtful details, local knowledge, and care that feels human, not scripted. At 5 Star Villa Holidays, we don’t just book stays - we bring mountain living homes to you.

Curated Mountain Holidays – Explore Destinations That Define the Heights

Switzerland – Zermatt, Leukerbad & Saas-Grund

Zermatt is the mountain dream distilled - the iconic Matterhorn, snow carving shadows and nights wrapped in quiet. Leukerbad trades drama for warmth, its steaming springs under falling snow. Saas-Grund is gentler still, where mornings belong only to you. The kind of mountain homes we handpick for those who want space that feels both rare and personal.

France – Chamonix, Courchevel, French Alps

Chamonix pulls you out to experience glaciers, cable cars and trails. Courchevel leans the other way: firelight, fine dining, and champagne against a windowpane of snow. And the Alps themselves - eternal, untamed and beautiful in their severity. Here, our mountain view villas aren’t designed for “guests” but for people who belong - even if just for a season.And if the slopes are what call you the most, explore our ski -in ski-out vacations.

Italy – Dolomites, Cortina d’Ampezzo

See Dolomites glow at dusk. And, witness the stone turning pink to rose as if the sky paints it fresh each evening. Cortina d’Ampezzo, chic yet rooted, feels carved between peaks. Mountain vacations here carry both intimacy and grandeur - alpine homes that aren’t escapes but invitations to live the mountain rhythm with fire, wine, and a horizon that keeps moving.

Japan – Niseko, Hakuba Valley

In Niseko, snow doesn’t fall - it drifts endlessly, feather-light, making silence sound thicker. Hakuba is bolder, with valleys opening into onsens where steam curls into frosted air. These mountains feel less like destinations and more like rituals: wooden walls and glass windows framing an eternal white. A place that lingers long in your memories after you leave.

Austria – Tyrol, Innsbruck

Tyrol tells alpine fairy tale featuring wood chalets, sharp ridges, cowbells in far meadows. Innsbruck blends that story with city rhythm, medieval spires standing beneath towering slopes. Our mountain vacation rentals here are both: heritage and horizon, timber warmth meeting the clean and thin air of height.

 
 

Cyprus – Troodos Mountains (Pano Platres, Amiantos)

The Troodos aren’t about spectacle. They’re about stillness: pine forests, monastery bells, the slow rhythm of vineyards at altitude. Our villas are tucked quietly into this landscape, offering something rare in Cyprus - true mountain seclusion. And if island life is what your heart is set on, discover more with our island vacations.

Spain – Pyrenees, Sierra Nevada

The Pyrenees are wild - green ridges, forests that feel secret, passes that belong to walkers not cars. Sierra Nevada is different, high above Andalusia, where snow meets sun and Moorish towns lie below. Our mountain view villas here carry both - stone walls, inner courtyards, a sense of Spain that lives between mountain silence and Mediterranean life. If sun and sand are calling you instead, then explore our beachfront vacations.

Turkey – Uludağ & Taurus Slopes near Alanya

Uludağ is winter alive: ski slopes, laughter, a bright cold that wakes you up. The Taurus slopes near Alanya are softer, thick with pine, rolling toward the sea. Few places offer such contrast - you can ski by noon, swim by sunset. With 5 Star Villa Holidays, mountain holidays aren’t just scenic; they’re elemental.

Czech Republic – Ore Mountains / Bohemian Uplands

The Ore Mountains don’t try to impress; they lean into understatement. Misty valleys, forests that seem endless, evenings where time slows near a fire. It’s Europe in its quietest register. Our villas here let you step into that rhythm, slow and unforced.

United Kingdom – Scottish Highlands, Snowdonia & Lake District

The Highlands roll endlessly - moors, lochs and silence. Snowdonia is sharper, dramatic skies shifting by the hour. The Lake District softens everything, with still waters catching mountain reflections. Our mountain homes here are less retreat and more perspective, framing wild Britain in ways few ever get to live.

Frequently Asked Questions
