Our Story

Armadillo was founded in 2001, by 2 friends, Matt and Julian, who share a love of travel and adventure but who also – let’s face it - have a weakness for the finer things in life. Frustrated by the cookie-cutter options on offer, they found themselves asking: why couldn’t they have it all?

A holiday designed specifically for them, where they could enjoy the excitement of new, authentic experiences, but still indulge in the comforts of luxury. And so, Armadillo was born: a boutique brand creating bespoke, luxury chalet experiences. Why? Because we believe that luxury is personal.

Our Philosophy

We’re passionate about redefining the modern chalet experience. Forget chalet cliches; instead look forward to a personalised luxury experience crafted entirely to your tastes and your desires.

Our Belief

Quite simply, that luxury is personal.

Our Mission

To curate carefully personalised and totally immersive, local luxury chalet experiences for each and every one of our clients
