Specialman, we're heading out next week for our second trip with Powder White (own travel). They have chalets in the 3V, Val d'I and a couple of other places. Last trip was a last-minuter in April and they were fine; admin stuff so far has been good. I believe they pay their staff more than the big mass-market operators so they put a little more effort in... They are also organised for peeps arriving early and leaving late to get a couple of extra days' skiing in. Will report back after next week

Ski Power - la tania. Two excellent holidays with them. One not quite as good but do recommend them.. We drove out and stayed the night before in the Ibis which gave us an extra day on the slopes.

Ski Olympic and Silver Ski. Sadly they only do Tarentaise resorts but I/we have lots of experience with both.

Try http://www.finlayski.com/ they have chalets in Courchevel for the 3V, also La Plagne and Val d'Isere where I am staying right now. There is this thread about one of their Courchevel chalets. I have had several holidays with Finlays.

Specialman, 7 of us went with Ski Morzine last year. Nice new chalet in an excellent location (<100m from Super Morzine lift), very slick transfers from Geneva included, good food and helpful chalet staff...

pam w, Le Ski were too expensive for us as with a group we like to book on the early side - Le Ski's special offers you linked to elsewhere are about what we have paid full price with Powder White. Powder White seem pretty good VFM. They also give 10% discount to returning customers (nice for us, esp since we only paid 299 in April, had a 12-person chalet and 2 chalet staff to ourselves!)

Ski Beat have some great chalets in Plan-Peisey - they've got a collection of 5 near 'la vache' restaurant that look really nice. The staff are a little older than some of the average as well, so there's a good chance your chalet host can cook...

You know it makes sense.

Peak ski in Verbier...
I worked for them last winter.
But I am sure other's will also add to the recommendation.
(funnily enough also worked for YSE way back in 2001!).
