Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
Looking to take my daughter during Feb 1/2 term. Have spotted a nice apartment available in the Reberty area, looking at the Les Menuires map this area seems quite a distance from the Croisette area. Does this cause any problems, is this far in reality? We will be mainly Self Catering with 2-3 restaurant visits, pub evenings.. Just don't want to be in the middle of no-where.
cheers Jason.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

there are regular buses down to croisette, and there are shops and good restaurants (La Ferme de Reberty) up there

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@kenloen, the Croisette isn't really walking distance but the Ferme de Reberty is all you need for normal evenings. One of my very favourite places in all of 3V's. If you want noisy après, go to the Folie in VT first.

You need to check the distance and change in elevation to the closest ski bus stop. Reberty is spread out over a hill side and is definitely not ski in ski out.
Check the frequency of the buses too.
If it was me I would pay the extra to stay somewhere that was ski in ski out.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I live in Reberty in the winter. I am ski in ski out and those apartments that are not are only a short walk to the piste. Although Reberty is quite spread out the bus stops are not too far apart and run every 20 minutes to 8pm and thereafter every 40 minutes to 11.40pm.

thanks all, I have booked it, the building is called Armoise. It looks pretty central for Reberty (J3 on the map), from the photos it looks like a slope runs directly behind the building. I cannot see us needing anything more than a couple of restaurants and a mini supermarket close by..

Armoise is situated at Reberty 1850. There are two restaurants and a shop just outside the door. There are also 3 ski hire shops located there. The building is ski in ski out. Access to Les Bruyeres for more facilities is a short walk and two elevators. Have a great stay.

kenloen,
We stayed in the Armoise last season and it is most definitely ski in/out.
It's in a lovely quiet spot, with (as others have said) resstaurants and a supermarket on the doorstep. The bus stop to Les Menuires is a 1 minute walk away.
We were so satisfied with the location that we've just (today) booked again for January!

Resistance is useless...I am totally addicted to all forms of weather reports and webcams.
To think back in the old days, you could read the snow report on a tiny column on the back of the Times sports pages and, I recall, a blackboard outside Snow and Rock just near work...!
