windythered how many people? My lads group has stayed in three chalets in Verbier all booked through SkiWorld and they've all been good in terms of location with two of them being ski in/out (although this does make it pretty entertaining getting back to the chalet after a night in Farinet or Mont Fort  ) We always rent the whole chalet so the number of beds changes every year.

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

windythered just been on the SkiWorld site to check the names of the chalets and it looks as if they aren't offering the same accommodation this season. I'll get the names of the chalets from my file as I can't remember offhand (I don't do the booking and our pet names for the chalets such as "James Bond" or "dog kennel" won't help you). Both of them were for about 10 people but we usually look at the price of the whole chalet and divide by the number of people that are going rather than the size of chalet. Lots of the smaller chalets have double beds in some rooms and, unless you are skiing with William Hague you need to count individual beds rather than total chalet capacity. We always book independant flights and transfers too.
However, the best trip to Verbier was a flight to Geneva and then the train to Verbier. It is very easy and much cheaper than renting a private coach.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Try www.skiextra.co.uk
Phone/email Jenny and have a chat with her.
The chalet is lovely, the food top notch, and her willingness to do a deal depends on your dates (ie 1/2 term...full price, odd dates she can be very flexible)
Location wise the bus to the lifts (runs about every 5 minutes during the day) is all of 20 metres from the door and they have a driver service that will pick you up/deliver you to the restaurant or night club of your choice any time throughout the night.
The combination of those makes it more "central to the action" than those chalets that advertise themselves as being in the centre of the town.
