Résidence Montana Valbel, Val Thorens, France

· ski-in, ski-out on the green Combe de Thorens slope · 5 minutes’ walk to the centre of the resort (through a series of elevators and walkways, not on the steeper route by road) · 3 minutes’ walk (or 150m ski) to the Cascades chairlift · 1 minute’s walk to the nursery slopes · 3 minutes’ walk to the ski school meeting point · 3 minutes’ walk to the nearest supermarket

With a winning location and not long renovated, the Montana Valbel apartments are just what you’d want from a cozy slopeside stay. Facing directly onto Val Thorens’ beginner area with the Cascades chairlift just a short ski across the piste, the mountain is on your doorstep here – no matter what ski level you’re at. And with a bakery right next door, you can add picking up a flaky croissant to your morning routine.

The apartments themselves have a clean, modern look, with neutral grey tones contrasting with pops of colour here and there. Each has a kitchenette with all the bits and bobs you need to self-cater, plus a casual living space with a dining area, TV and comfy furnishings. It’s perfect for families and small groups wanting a chilled-out atmosphere to kick back and relax in at the end of each ski day.

The residence also has a boot room with individual lockers – so you can stash your gear away safely and warm your boots up on the heated rack, ready and waiting for the next day’s adventures.

For an extra charge, you can add ready-to-heat meals to your booking, which are handmade locally and delivered to your accommodation by our partner, Huski. You can pick from a welcome pack, 3-evening or 6-evening meals that are easy to heat up. Find out more on the meal delivery service page.
