- Chalet Skadi Apartments description
NB: This is a "family" apartment, so all bookings must include at least one child or teenager.
These lovely new apartments are well located in this premium ski resort. They are all finished to a very high standard with bedrooms for everybody so nobody has to sleep in the lounge area.
It's a 10 minutes' walk (750m) to the childcare at the Ducs de Savoie, but there is a ski bus stop just outside with buses stopping just a minute away from the 'Ducs'. There are shops and restaurants within a couple of minutes' walk from the residence and a supermarket just opposite, along with the ski hire shop. The Solaise and Bellvarde lifts are approximately 5 minutes' walk (500m) away. This gives you the chance to self-cater in a really central location in Val d'Isère.
In Norse mythology, 'Skadi' is the goddess of winter and she rules over the mountains. The residence takes inspiration of this with a contemporary and mountain-style design and use of wood, stone and tile-stone to create a natural and relaxing atmosphere.
Access to the spa 'Les Bains du Montana' is included for all guests with an indoor pool, a whirlpool, a sauna, and steam room. The spa is open in the mornings from 10am to noon and from 3pm to 8pm (with the last hour for adults from 15 years and above only). You can also purchase a wide range of beauty treatments and massages to pamper and rejuvenate your body, including body and facial treatments, exfoliation and reflexology.
The layout of the apartments is perfect for families and our types have two separate bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, one with a bath and one with a shower. There are extensive kitchen facilities and best of all, nobody sleeps in the lounge. Each apartment has Wi-Fi at no extra cost. Some apartments also have a fireplace for an extra snug family evening around the fire.
There is a ski room with individual ski lockers and boot dryers
Little extras like dressing gowns and slippers for the spa and the little welcome cleaning pack really makes you feel at home. The residence itself is not large and there are 33 apartments in total in three separate buildings, so you do have a feeling of exclusivity.

Ski Childcare & Children’s Ski Lessons
We have led the childcare concept for UK families on skiing holidays for the last 35 years and our programme is constantly reviewed and refined, with previous guest feedback always the key element in further enhancing the experience.
For parents, Classic Childcare means being able to leave your accommodation after breakfast to head for the first lifts, only needing to return after the last one shuts. We look after your children completely throughout the ski day if you wish.
While the babies and toddlers go to our Nursery, staff take the older ones to our partner ski-school, collect them, give them lunch, run activities to keep them happy and stimulated and then take them back to their chalets for their high tea, giving you our super-convenient ‘Seamless Service’ throughout the day.
