Poster: A snowHead
|
Anyone been here in recent years? We're looking at going in April 2009, 2 adults and 2 kids (6 and 9 years)
Seems to tick the 'near the ski school meeting place' box.
They seem to offer 'packs' for food, ski's , lessons, lift passes etc....
Any advice appreciated but in particular the cleanliness and appartment facilities.

BMF_Skier, very central, refurbished about three (?) years ago. Fairly cramped, I believe.

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

It is about the snow, but when you're squeezing 4 people into a space thats too tight for 2, it can spoil the ambiance a tad. Appartment booked, Res.Olympiades, supposidly for 6. We have 2 adults, 2 kids so ,space wise, it should just be adequate. So next easter,moi, Megamum and the 'Minimums' are on the way to Val Thorens.

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

BMF_Skier, What date are you out there? I will be with my son from the 11th April. We've not booked anything yet but I will be staying over for the EOSB hopefully.

We're there from 11th - 18th April. We miss the EoSB unfortunately.
With time relatively short, I'm trying to find the SP on the Olympiades appartments

BMF_Skier, Ok, might be able to meet up for a ski/drink at some point. I'll keep an eye on this thread as this accomodation might suit us too.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Does anyone know if these appartments come with a TV set? There may be times when two small children may function better with DVD's to occupy their time
