To be honest if you want a really cheap holiday to Val d’Isere, they’re not that bad. They’re probably the cheapest place you can stay in the resort, but if you’re willing to pay a bit more you can find somewhere much nicer. Had a good week but more because of the company rather than the actual apartments..... + more

This would be great for people looking to do it on the cheap but it’s not somewhere I’d be looking to book again. These apartments are very basic and are quite a long walk to the lifts (5-10 mins in boots and carrying skis). There were 4 of us in 1 apartment and it was quite cramped, some people had to sl... + more

We had a great holiday for the price we paid. The apartments are in a really great location for the cost (short walk to the lifts and where we had our lessons). The three of us fit fine with two adults and a six year old, but I felt the apartment was too small for 4 adults, so worth mentioning that in this revi... + more

The apartment was absolutely fine, the cooking area was basic but fine for what we needed for the week, it had a hob and microwave-oven thing, which were a bit old but did what they needed to! One room had 2 beds and one of us slept on a pull out sofa. The apartment was just off the main street where all the ba... + more

In France's Rhone Alp region, Val d'Isere (pronounced val-diz-air) is considered one of the most brilliant and beautiful ski areas in the world. In the stunning Tarentaise Valley, the resort is one of France's prettiest. A huddle cosy alpine wood and stone chalets. The village dates from the 13th century with a Christmas-card-worthy church steeple at its centre. Unlike most authentic old ski towns, Val sits high at 1850m, ensuring fast access to the slopes and great snowfall throughout the season – opening ea...
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, ...

"Cheapest way to ski Val"

Jack Hutton, Newquay
3/ out of 5
To be honest if you want a really cheap holiday to Val d’Isere, they’re not that bad. They’re probably the cheapest place you can stay in the resort, but if you’re willing to pay a bit more you can find somewhere much nicer. Had a good week but more because of the company rather than the actual apartments... Our apartment was fairly small, probably the size of a big caravan and with a similar set up too. Everyone was pretty much staying in the same room, there was a set of bunk beds and 2 sofas that you just took the cushions off and slept on. As 3 mates we were fairly happy to get up early and get out on the slopes so didn’t spend much time in the apartment, but I wouldn’t recommend it to couples and I probably wouldn’t do it again. We cooked for maybe 2 nights, the kitchen was basic but we managed a spag bol without any trouble. We only had a hob and thought it was a bit odd that there was a massive dishwasher where they could have easily been an oven... Val d’Isere is quite good for takeaway options that aren’t that expensive, so we could get good pizzas relatively cheap if we didn’t want to cook. It was probably a ten minute walk to get to the lifts which wasn’t too far (and it was pretty flat). Getting to most of the restaurants and bars was a fairly similar distance although there’s quite a good bar just up the road.

"Great for skiing on the cheap, too small/basic for us"

This would be great for people looking to do it on the cheap but it’s not somewhere I’d be looking to book again. These apartments are very basic and are quite a long walk to the lifts (5-10 mins in boots and carrying skis). There were 4 of us in 1 apartment and it was quite cramped, some people had to sleep in the living area and there was nowhere to chill out downstairs. We were a group of four 30 something lads but I wouldn’t be taking my family here, the whole area is geared for groups of lads or groups of girls, the majority of people I saw here were of a uni student age.

"Great holiday for the price"

We had a great holiday for the price we paid. The apartments are in a really great location for the cost (short walk to the lifts and where we had our lessons). The three of us fit fine with two adults and a six year old, but I felt the apartment was too small for 4 adults, so worth mentioning that in this review. The hosts/resort reps were terrific and looked after us so well in the freak snowstorm, when the coach broke down (don't let them turn off the engine!). While the self catering apartments are nothing particularly special, if you keep in mind the incredibly cheap price they let you ski at, the holiday is an absolute bargain!

"Good for what we needed"

The apartment was absolutely fine, the cooking area was basic but fine for what we needed for the week, it had a hob and microwave-oven thing, which were a bit old but did what they needed to! One room had 2 beds and one of us slept on a pull out sofa. The apartment was just off the main street where all the bars and restaurants are and about a 5 minute walk to the Olympic lift which takes you to the main area, where you can ski to Tignes. There’s also a Spar about 3 minutes’ walk away.
