Overview

Fantastic chalet with very high standards, outdoor hot tub, steam room and doorstep skiing!

Description

Fantastic location right on the slopes amongst a cluster of other chalets in a new development. You jump on your skis right outside the door and ski 250m down to the gondola lift. At the end of the day you can ski right back to the door. In the evening the centre of Alpe d'Huez is 20-25mins walk but there are a couple of bars and a scattering of shops only 5-10mins away. Alternatively you can jump on the free ski bus which stops close to the chalet.

The facilities are excellent. The spacious sun terrace has a hot tub and fantastic views. It catches the sun virtually all day. Inside, the chalet is nicely decorated and has large, comfortable sofas, and an open fireplace in its spacious lounge with cable TV. Adjoining the lounge is the open plan dining area. All bedrooms are well furnished. Two have their own facilities and others share facilities on the corridor. There is a heated boot room and downstairs there is a steam room.

There is an additional room which has been cut out from the rock in the basement area. It is fully insulated and heated and soundproofed. There are 2 comfortable sofas, 2 large bean bags and 8 large colourful cushions but the piece de resistance is the 50 inch high-definition plasma TV with an all round sound cinema system. There is a new HD DVD player and the whole system is linked to Sky TV. This is a great room for people to watch films/sports etc without disturbing those people who wish to relax in the lounge!

About Alpe d'Huez

Alpe d’Huez is a high-altitude, south-facing resort famous for its reliable snow and exceptional sunshine, earning it the nickname the “Island in the Sun” with over 300 bluebird days each year. Its 250km ski area is highly varied, offering beginner-friendly learning zones and well-linked easy runs, long scenic blues around the main bowl, and more challenging terrain higher up on the glacier, including the legendary 16km Sarenne – the world’s longest black run.

The resort is spread across several distinct areas, each with its own character. The lively centre is home to bars and nightlife, including quirky spots like Freeride Café, while Bergers offers a quieter, more laid-back atmosphere. Vieil Alpe provides a traditional alpine feel with its stone buildings and village charm. Après-ski is a big part of the experience, with mountain venues such as La Folie Douce delivering energetic parties straight off the slopes.

Accommodation is equally diverse, ranging from self-catered apartments to large hotels with extensive facilities, making it suitable for all types of traveller. For off-slope activities, the alpine coaster offers a thrilling descent with twists, turns and optional VR goggles for an immersive mountain experience.
