Location: where is Chalet Irene

Chalet Irene is one of the four "Chalets de Bettaix" located in a stunning satellite village of Les Menuires below the fabulous peak of La Masse and beside the River Doron. This beautiful location is hard to beat for Alpine atmosphere with fantastic views up the valley towards Val Thorens and very close to the piste and lift system giving access to the full Three Valleys area. New for 2015-2016 will be a high speed 4-person chair lift from the village making the link to the main resort centre and the whole Three Valleys area much faster.


Overview: chalet description: Chalet Irene description

Catered chalet to sleep 8-10 people in 4 double or twin en-suite rooms plus a bunk cabine - perfect from small groups and families, hot-tub and sauna

The chalet can accommodate 8 adults and 2 children and is the twin sister of our Chalet Jasmine next door and almost identical to Chalets Katerina and Lorraine which are situated behind it. You can book Chalet Irene as a whole chalet for your party allowing smaller groups to have exclusive occupancy of a chalet or you can book by the room or even as a large group as we can welcome groups up to 40 people to this wonderful location by booking several of the chalets together.

Chalet Irene is an "upside down" chalet with the living room on the upper floor and a balcony from which you can relax and enjoy the afternoon sun, uninterrupted views and mountain atmosphere. After a hard day's skiing, you can also take advantage of the sauna or outside hot-tub facilities that are provided for your pleasure before sitting down to a hearty evening meal in the company of friends

Note: Local tourist taxes "taxe de sejour" - 10.50 GBP per adult per week will be automatically added to your booking to cover the tourist tax levied by the French Government

Together with Saint Martin De Belleville and Val Thorens, Les Menuires (say it Lay-Men-Weer) is part of the Vallée des Belleville and is the cheapest base for skiing in the 3 Valleys. This purpose-built resort is more focussed on the practical than the aesthetic. Le Menuires is split into five villages - Preyerand, La Croisette, Les Fontanettes, Reberty and Les Bruyères, all linked by walking paths, ski runs, shuttle buses and lifts. Les Bruyères or Reberty have the sloping roofs and wood-cladding the Al...
The resort has aimed to provide a wide variety for all abilities – and the proof is in the pudding! The opportunities are outstanding for skiers and snowboarders, but you would expect no less considering it is a part of the world's largest ski area. Novices will find five free lifts either end of the resort for getting to grips on gentle little green runs and longer greens such as La Violette at the top of the gondola from La Croisette. With a healthy mix of reds and blue runs covering the vast majori...
End a day of skiing on the large sun terrace in L'Oisans and sit down in the sunshine with a jug of beer. Kick back with a cocktail or shoot some pool in the cosy Piano Bar Le Kube. Sports games can be watched on the TVs at Café Snack. If you ski over to Val Thorens be sure to go for some drinks at the famous Folie Douce. Those looking for some late-night action have 2 night clubs to choose between; Le New Pop in La Croisette or Le Liberty in Les Bruyères - an intimate underground bar with seats fashioned like...

I think this was either our 3rd or 4th stay with this chalet company and we are delighted to say that the standard of care from our hosts was outstanding as usual. They were the perfect hosts. Despite being only their second week, the food was all cooked to the highest standards, on time and very tasty without exception. It always amazes me that these guys are not trained chefs but can produce such amazing food so consistently. Full marks to your training and menu design!!

The accommodation was lovey, with everything I'd expect to see from a catered chalet …. The chalet hosts were utter professionals, they were friendly made us feel totally at home and worked hard to ensure our every needs were met. Their cooking skills were exemplary and each meal was a joy to eat! After the service received from them I would have no hesitation returning for another stay and recommending a visit to family and friends. Thank you for a memorable holiday!

We returned yesterday from our week at Chalet Irene and just wanted to say we had a fantastic holiday. The weather was great, the skiing fantastic and chalet amazing. The location (next door to the hire shop and 2 mins walk from the chairlift) could not be faulted. The catering and service that was provided by the chalet hosts was second to none and really appreciated, please pass on our thanks again to them.
