if you want somewhere prettier and more atmosphere..stay on the way to Flaine in Les Carroz would be my advice!!

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

We're going in Jan too. 24th-31st. Flaine foret was suggested to me when I asked the same question.
I've never been so cant suggest somewhere but the Capricorne apts seem to be 50m from lifts and same from shops.
Flaine reservations seems the best place to look on the flaine.com site.
If I've got this wrong someone please tell me as I'm booking the apt next week.

Michael B,
Very good location - ski in and out, also handily placed for lift down to Flaine forum.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Hywel, Excellent. Thanks for the confirmation. I struggled understanding the town maps in relation to the lifts so I'm pleased I got it right.

Michael B, Capricorn is well situated but do be careful to make sure of the quality of the apts.If it hasnt been refitted recently or renovated if its privately owned I would steer clear.Some of the apts are seriously dodgy,(1960s concrete construction=Smelly damp corridors /lifts and sometimes very basic tired apts).
I have stayed at Pierre +Vacances flaine foret which is 100m(ultra convenient) from the lifts and was refitted in an Modern sort of Ikea way about three seasons ago.Much better than most in Flaine Foret IMHO.

ymh, sorry i only just saw your PM.
The Intrawest building will be the posh end of the scale with outdoor/indoor pool and ski out/in - but v expensive on your own.
I have an apartment in Foret (Iris) which is one of the better blocks.
Les Pleiades block is virtually brand new and looks nice.

another vote for the p & v appts at Flaine Foret - We were amazed how nicely fitted they were compared to some we have stayed in!!
Mind you - next time we'd ask for an appt at the BACK of the block as there was a lot of noise late night from sledging and general outdoor "fun" late at night... Mind you it was during the Xmas hols... so maybe a particular party time??

and jayne durham, andgsb,
Good advice - we are considering them for this Christmas. I don't really care if the place looks like a concret jungle...I can block that one out!
