Chalet Delfina, Les Ménuires

The chalets are located literally right on the doorstep of the Bruyéres gondola lift - the picture at the foot of the page was taken from our back door and you can't get much closer than this!  The gondola lift takes you straight up to the peak above the Meribel valley (Mont de la Chambre at 2850m) from where you can ski down into Val Thorens, Meribel or Les Menuires.  The development is right on the piste, and in the centre of the village for all the amenities including a ski school and creche next door and nightclub 200m away.  The resort shuttle bus stops outside the chalets and gives access to the whole Les Menuires area.

Chalet Delfina can accommodate up to 14 people in 7 bedrooms - there are twin rooms plus a "family suite" which is accessed via a steep staircase and consists of a double room and a separate twin cabine, sharing a bathroom.

All rooms are en-suite and are equipped with showers, washbasin and WC.  The comfortable living room has a space to sit and relax around the cosy fireplace or a dining area which is an ideal place for board games outside of meal times.  The mini-bar offers a selection of wines, beers and soft-drinks which you can enjoy on the sun terrace in the afternoons or soak away the aches and pains of a hard days skiing in the hot-tub while taking in the great view across the Val Thorens.  For those who need to keep in touch with the outside world, a free WIFI internet connection is provided in the chalet.

In the hallway at the back of the chalets there is a ski room for each chalet with heated electric boot warmers - from this corridor you take the security coded lift which takes you up and drops you on the piste at the foot of the gondola lift - access to the pistes really couldn't be easier.
