 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi there - I am not sure this place really exists but thought I would check out the wider snowheads knowledge!
Looking for a large apartment, for 8 or 12 people, next to nursery slopes which has facilities for a 2.5 year old (prefer alternative to set as Heard- bad things about their nurseries) - preferably ski in / out, but not far to walk to nursery slopes if not ski in / out and in either Feb (so could be low down as it will be too cold) or April Easter holidays so will have to be high.
Would love Les menuires but can seem to find any apartments in the centre without walking.

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

Sainte Foy would be worth looking,you might need to put people in the living room on a sofae ba in an apartment. Plenty of chalets around though, look at Premiere Neige

@Elsie80, I think you'll struggle to find a single apartment that comfortably sleeps 8-12 people ...

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

There's a whole host of ApartHotels in Tignes now, this one is close to the nursery slopes, but you would have to book childcare, to come into the apartment and yes they do have large apartments with no one on the sofa, well up to 14 folks.

They do have others, but are a bit further from the nursery slopes.

Denali looks nice in Tignes, I can also highly recommend Le Taos (two doors away from Denali).

As for childcare, ABSki are amazing in Tignes.

You could look at Morzine or Avoriaz as they are great family resorts.
If you need childcare you could check out Altitude Nannies https://altitudenannies.co.uk/

Could you combine 2 or more apartments together? Like this:

Morzine has a great nursery school and lots of private childcare options. Minimum age for ski school is almost always 3. It’s not very high, fine in Feb, may be a problem at Easter.
Avoriaz has the village des enfants and almost all the apartments are ski in/out.

If you want a package, Chaletline are very good at finding what you need if you give them a list of requirements, and often cheaper than booking direct. They have apartments and hotels, not just chalets.

You know it makes sense.

I've just opened up our Morgins apartments for next season, so take a look. Largest one sleeps 7 comfortably, plus a sofa bed.
We're just a couple of minutes' walk from a nursery area with kids' club(s), while two chair lifts (5 and 8 minutes' walk, free buses available) to connect to the rest of the PdS via Châtel and Champousin/Champéry respectively.
Morgins is a quiet pretty village, with a couple of small supermarkets and a handful of restaurants. Châtel is just five minutes' drive for more nightlife or shopping. At 1350m we do pretty well for snow, but it's not ski-in, ski-out as such.

It's on the top floor but there is a (small) lift.
