Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi All,
Hopefully someone will be able to help with ANOTHER St Anton query!
I have managed to get myself landed with organising the group ski trip AGAIN this year.... then if I didn't it probably wouldn't happen...
As others on here have mentioned I'm looking at flying to Friedrichshafen Airport and transferring from there to St Anton. I'm having a problem finding a chalet (either catered or self-catering, we're not too fussy, I'm sure we won't go hungry or thirsty either way ). Most of the Chalets I've found are priced including flights from the UK and not much off if you don't need flights. As we are flying from Dublin it's not much help to us. I was wondering if anyone knows a site such as VRBO or similar where you can book just the chalet on it's own? We are looking at 16-18 people and would rather book out a chalet if possible. We are hoping to travel 23/02/2008 for a week.
Thanks,
Nuts

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Try Skiworld - they have some chalets the right size at very reasonable prices. Not sure how much they'd knock off if you don't need flights.

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

A couple of suggestions - SkiVal have a few larger chalets in St Anton and have been helpful in the past so may be able to offer reductions for independent travel - www.skival.co.uk
Also, www.skitotal.com operate in St Anton and do have options for independent travel on their enquiries page.
Both offer group discounts.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

More chance booking from the 24th Feb (this is a Saturday)

The 23rd of Feb is a Saturday (no Sunday flights) but I have noticed that a lot of the chalets on the sites mentioned are free 24th Feb - 02 Mar Sun - Sun so that poses another problem....

Bus is great. took it last year worked really well. Make sure you try the funky chicken's frozen margheritas..
As to the OP's question..is there a reason why you are fixated on chalets? St. Anton has lots of hotels, pensions, etc some of which have self-catering flats etc.. ok so then the food needs some work but it's not that hard...

You know it makes sense.

The train is simple from Friedrichshafen book through DB the German rail company who have a UK based office and site. Also recomend the tourist office and the St A website very useful.
