Fay Chalet: How One Son Is Building His Mom a Dream Escape in Lebanon

What started as a dream funded entirely by a successful music career is officially becoming a reality. Musician Danny Aridi is building a stunning luxury private rental for his mother, set to open its doors this September.

Fay Chalet nestles among the peaceful olive trees of Abey, offering sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea. Just 15 minutes from the beach and 25 minutes from Beirut, the property blends mountain tranquility with easy coastal access.

A look inside the property

Designed with complete privacy and high-end comfort in mind, Fay Chalet sleeps up to six guests and features:

– An infinity pool overlooking the sea

– A free-standing bathtub

– A suspended fireplace chimney

– Expansive grounds spacious enough to host intimate weddings and private events

In fact, the chalet’s event potential is already in full swing with its very first couple lined up to celebrate their wedding on the property.

For Danny, building Fay Chalet has been a hands-on labor of love. He has been filming the entire process from day one, sharing every step of the journey with his followers, from drawing the initial floor plans in the dirt and laying the concrete foundations to raising two full floors from the ground.

In a region known for its rich hospitality, Fay Chalet stands out not just for its luxury amenities, but for the heartwarming story behind every stone laid. You can watch the multiple part series on their Instagram here!
