Luxury Chalets Chamonix

One of the most competitive market in the Alps, the summer saw the launch of Luxury Chalets Chamonix the latest in a long line of ski chalet sites, although in this example one aimed at the higher end of the Chamonix ski chalets market.

In terms of Chamonix, the valley this weekend saw snowfall down to 1,200m as the Arctic winds pushed temperatures lower than the seasonal norm. Whilst next week temperatures are expected to return to low teens, the next couple of days are expected to remain overall cold.

Fingers crossed that this bodes well for the forthcoming ski season.

Ski Chalets Chamonix

Chamonix is one, if not the most famous ski resort in Europe, situated under the Mont Blanc, Western Europe's highest ski mountain at 4,810m. It is a long valley so there are plenty of ski chalets to choose from and the standard as a consequence is high in terms of accommodation. Chalet Ski holidays have one of the better selection of Chamonix ski chalets in terms of quality and price. Here you can choose from a carefully selected range of chalets rather than a selection of everything!

Family Skiing Holidays

Family Skiing Chamonix
If you are looking for a great family ski holidays, Chamonix might night be your first thought! but strangely enoughly at has some great skiing in the areas of La Tour and Les Houches. The latter even has a dedicated ski lift (for man chair) and a slow moving magic carpet! Couple this with some relatively easy blue and red runs and you have some of the best family skiing in the Alps! The ESF Ski School in Les Houches is also very warm and friendly and therefore popular with both the children and the parents who can leave them safe in the knowledge they are being well looked after.

Family Ski Resort

It is a mistake to consider Chamonix as an experts resort only. Yes it does have some of the best off-piste skiing in the world, but that is just half the story. Les Houches which is at one end of the valley has some of the best family skiing your probably find in the Alps. The slopes are confidence building with few, if any, significant drop-offs and plenty of blue and red runs. Beginners are well catered for with a magic carpet travelator and its own chair lift.

Family Chalets

Family Chalets, a new site to launch later on in the summer is by all accounts looking for great family ski chalets at the start of its launch. To feature chalets will need to demonstrate that they are a true family ski chalet and minimum criteria is expected to include children's menu, free games, toys, cots, high chairs, and cild restraint seats in vehicles, free ski and creche booking prior to arrival, and support taking and collecting  children to creche and ski school. A chalet within a reasonable distance of the piste, and when its greater than 200m, an all day complimentary shuttle service is also be muted as possible criteria.
