Five stars all the way for this really nice catered chalet. This was actually our second time stying here, as we had booked it a few years ago when VIP had it, and we paid a lot less this time! Thanks so much for an absolute winner. + more

The highlight of this chalet is undoubtedly the hot tub on the balcony (must double check its still there) because there are few better places to unwind with a cold beverage after a day on the slopes. However, the rest of the chalet is definitely no let down either. With a rustic stone and wood façade, and a s... + more

Location: where is Chalet Le Yéti

Superb, high quality wooden chalet in exclusive Val d'Isère location

Overview: chalet description: Chalet Le Yéti description

Chalet Le Yeti is simply stunning with wooden exteriors, authentic wooden beams and with furnishings all in keeping with very the high standards. It is evident that it was lovingly built by skilled craftsmen and we are pleased to welcome this chalet in to the chalet portfolio in Val d'Isère.

Three of the bedrooms have their own private balcony with fantastic views of the resort and the slopes. The master suite also has its own whirlpool bath and dressing room.

There is an outdoor hot-tub on the terrace from the lounge which is the perfect way to unwind after a day on the slopes whilst admiring the surrounding mountains.

The location is in the exclusive Les Carats area with private elevator access from resort level and it is only approx. 450m walk from the bottom of the elevator to Val d’Isère's centre.

Meals: Chalet Le Yéti food & drink

We set very high standards for our cuisine, and train our staff extensively before the season starts, to ensure that you will thoroughly enjoy every meal on your holiday with us. We also take our Health and Safety responsibilities extremely seriously, so all our chalet and Chalet Hotel staff involved in food preparation are trained to the City & Guilds qualification – Level 2 in Food Safety during the pre-season training course. There is a continental breakfast is every morning and a breakfast hot option, afternoon tea and evening dinners are provided for six days of the week in both chalets and Chalet Hotels.

Breakfast

A good breakfast is essential on a ski holiday, so we provide both a hot option, as well as a continental selection with a choice of cereals or porridge, fruit juices, plentiful tea, coffee and bread (and croissants in France), cold meats, cheese and preserves, which is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself. On our staff day off, only the continental breakfast will be provided.

Afternoon Tea

The traditional ‘welcome home’ after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff day off. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready.

Children's High Tea

In chalets and Chalet Hotels with family guests, High Tea provides children under 11 years with a healthy menu, tailored more towards children’s tastes and puréed food is available for infants on request. High Tea is at 5.30pm, and children do not join the main adult-only dinner.

Dinner in Chalets

In the evenings our hosts will cook you a three-course adult only meal six nights a week. This starts with a glass of prosecco followed by an appetiser, main course and dessert – with unlimited complimentary red, white and rosé wine during service! There is also an option for vegetarians, please warn us in advance.

One of these meals will be a regional meal with the menu depending on which country you are staying in.

On the staff one night off per week just a continental breakfast is provided and it’s a great opportunity for you to experience some local restaurants in your resort. Speak to your resort representative for recommendations and help with reservations.

Vegetarian and Special Diets

Vegetarian options are available in our properties – just advise us at time of bookings so that we can ensure that our staff can prepare. Other special diets can generally be catered for at a cost of £35 per person per week. Any dietary requirements must be advised to us at the time of booking in order for us to be fully prepared. Our Chalet Hosts will discuss your dietary requirements with you upon arrival to the chalet or Chalet Hotel.

Christmas and New Year

All of our chalets and Chalet Hotels will serve a traditional Christmas dinner with a glass of Champagne to start off the evening. This will include roast turkey with all of the trimmings, Christmas pudding, mince pies, crackers and party hats plus a fantastic Alpine atmosphere in which to enjoy the day.

A special festive menu will also be served on New Year’s Eve, alongside the added bonus that many resorts put on fantastic firework displays. A glass of fizz, whilst watching fireworks over the snow-capped peaks of the Alps.. what better way to bring in the New Year!

Our Quality Wines

We are very proud of our wine selection for chalets and Chalet Hotels, which combines crisp and fruity whites with medium to full-bodied reds, for a variety of palates. We select our wines in conjunction with our good friends Nicolas and Véronique – the third generation in the Perret family’s fine wine business based in the Savoie. Nicolas is a qualified wine expert, having trained at the prestigious Burgundy Wine University in Beaune. Each season in October, Nicolas & Véronique bring over a new selection for us to sample (someone has to do it!) and together we choose our wines for the coming season, based on our menus and their pure enjoyment factor. Wine is an incredibly subjective and emotive subject, however, the feedback we have received from our guests over recent seasons endorses our aims of providing wines to enhance your meal and to suit most tastes. We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do!

We update Chalet Le Yéti's details often, but facilities do change. e.g. some extras listed by the supplier as "free" or included might only be for the first time you use them, or for one time per party, then charged for further use. If any specific feature is essential to your holiday, make sure you ask us to confirm the details of it before you book your holiday.

Ski never-ending pistes and powder, ogle at colossal peaks and cosy Savoie architecture, then end the day with some of the world's most wild and wonderful après ski. Val d'Isere is considered by many to be the best ski resort on earth, and we’re inclined to agree.

In France's Rhone Alp region, Val d'Isere (pronounced: val de saire/sare/ser or val d sere) is widely thought of as one of the most brilliant and beautiful ski areas in the world. In keeping with the giddyingly gorgeous surroundings, the resort itself is one of France's prettiest - a huddle alpine hamlets formed from cosy wood and stone chalets. With the original village dating back to the 13th century and a Christmas-card-worthy church steeple at its centre, there’s alpine charm by the bucket load. While dre...
Skiers in Val d'Isere are schussing in the tracks of some of the world's greatest skiers. Olympic medallists Marielle and Christine Goitschel learned to ski here, not to mention triple gold winner Jean-Claude Killy, after whom the wider ski area is named. As an indication of this place's premier status - the resort has hosted championships including the 1992 Olympics, the World Alpine Ski Championships in 2009 and World Cup events every December. If some of the best skiers in history have learned here, begi...
Famed for its après ski, there's no chance of a dull evening in Val. Living up to its name, you'll experience ‘sweet madness' at the original Le Folie Douce, which brings you some of the best après ski in Europe - including dancers, musicians, raining champagne and much more... Once that closes, Dicks T Bar's a local legend, staying open into the early hours each night. Bananas is another firm favourite, much loved for its crafty cocktails and slope-side location. In Val d'Isere's 90-something restaurants, ...

"Not a Platinum chalet"

Alexander Stocker, Buckinghamshire
1/ out of 5
We had a disappointing overall experience. Although the location was first class, not much else was. The only other plus was that food was very good indeed, apart from the odd dessert and the breakfast, which was a quite skimpy (for example 4 pain au chocolat between 10 people). The wine was almost undrinkable. The chalet was generally run down and badly maintained. The Wifi hardly worked while were there, which was a real shame as we couldn’t contact our family on Christmas day. It was meant to be a ‘Platinum’ chalet but many things were poor quality, for example the bedding and pillows didn’t fit properly, and the crockery was chipped and from Ikea. Every single toilet roll holder was broken in the chalet. The whole chalet was filthy because the hoover was broken and this played havoc with my asthma. There was no kindling for the fire, we had to use cardboard. Our towels were not changed, we ended up washing them ourselves. The hot tub was not up to temperature until Tuesday evening, and this was one of our main reasons for booking the chalet. The boot warmers and the whirlpool bath in our room also weren’t working while we were there. Apparently the whirlpool bath hadn’t worked since Christmas 2012. The staff were accommodating but they seemed to be overstretched and the rep was not helpful.

The highlight of this chalet is undoubtedly the hot tub on the balcony (must double check its still there) because there are few better places to unwind with a cold beverage after a day on the slopes. However, the rest of the chalet is definitely no let down either. With a rustic stone and wood façade, and a stylish contemporary interior décor, I think the Yeti is very much in keeping with the exclusive surrounding area of les Carats. Confident skiers can ski back to the door via the famous ‘Face’ black run; though for the less adventurous there is a private elevator at resort level to whisk you home in style.
