Anne-Marie and Serge Guilhaumou, the French couple behind Les Alpes, first came to New Zealand in 1989 and instantly fell in love with the country, so when they stopped sailing professionally in 2002, they naturally came back and settled down in Auckland.

 

Over the years they visited Queenstown many times, and could not help but fall in love with the Southern Lakes. That paired with a passion for food, authentic recipes, and the mountains saw Les Alpes born.

The idea started small: maybe a restaurant and a small tea room, but as Anne-Marie and Serge kept on meeting talented people who all wanted to be part of their project, the idea grew bigger and bigger.

 

 Les Alpes is now a unique culinary experience taking you on a voyage to a chalet on the slopes of Savoy’s snow-capped mountains and offering you unique and authentic French food.

The passion and generosity of Anne-Marie and Serge will make them your perfect hosts through that journey.

 

Bon Appétit!
