Families

Chalets with an informal atmosphere are the perfect choice for a family ski holiday. Alternatively, you can opt for a chalet hotel where there will be plenty of other children for your little ones to meet and have fun with. For families with very young children, there are a number of good ski holiday operators who are family specialists and offer childcare for chidren of all ages and creches for babies and toddlers.

Most ski tour operators will offer good discounts (including free places on a first come first serve basis) over the season and some even provide creches and nannies at an extra premium.

The free child places are normally based on the number of children sharing a room with two full fare paying adults.

Top Tips for Family Ski Holiday Bookings

- Book childcare/creche places early.
