Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi everyone,
I'm looking to find out what companies people know of that can offer low cost weekend breaks
Last year we went away with www.mountainsunltd.com to their Chalet Hotel Les Melezes accommodation in Tignes.
We paid about £380 and that included 3 days accommodation, food, wine with meals, transfers from Geneva and ski passes.
We had a great time and may look to go back here. However we are just wondering whether there are any other companies that can offer such great rates at other resorts (preferably within reach of geneva airport) especially when you factor in the free transfers and included lift pass.
I've spent a while searching on the internet but always seem to come back to this company providing the best value.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Not sure on value but I have used Snowtrex.com before and that was okay, but it did not include transfers or food, but was cheap.
Also Travelzoo had some deals when I looked last year but i'm unsure as to this season coming.
Maybe worth a look anyway.

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

Did they provide tuna sandwiches for lunch, salmon bagels for breakfast and cod for dinner?

@mountainaddict, it might be a suggestion that you could have a look for indie accommodation, transfers/car rental etc... without a package supplier... but it might not be either innit!

Felt fishily like a sponsored posting to me - lots of chat about how great the company was, and very little about the OP's actual requirements for this putative 3-day weekend they are looking to book... Maybe I was just feeling uncharitable after waking at midnight to investigate Easyjet flight prices and finding that I could have stayed asleep.

@baldricksplan, welcome to snowHeads.
If you are wanting an organised package, then I agree that www.mountainsunltd.com are hard to beat.
By coach - with someone like skiweekends.com would probably be cheaper, but overnight coach isn't everyone's cup of tea, otherwise have you tried putting together a DIY deal - that is probably the only way that you'll beat their prices.

You guys surprise me. Does that mean that there are people here that haven't been to Melezes with Mountainsun!

@baldricksplan, If you can get cheap flights to Salzburg then contact @flangesax above. 45 Min transfer or a train ride available. Great ski area and cheap as chips.
