Courchevel village: cosy T4 apartment - ski in/ski out access

A wonderful little property that suited the needs of a family of four perfectly. Beautiful location and excellent links for skiing. The owner was very helpful too and spoke excellent English!!

Apartment is brightly furnished with attractive curtains and covers. It looks out ( in our stay) to snow covered trees with mountains catching the early morning sun. The lounge/kitchen area is spacious and open to kitchen. The owners have put a boot drying area by the front door. The apartment has easy access to pool table/lounge in the reception area. The owners clearly enjoy their apartment and were very helpful and quick to reply to our questions. It was in a spotless condition and we would certainly recommend it to our friends. We skied to and from each day via a freshly pisted red run each day and could quickly get into lift systems taking us into Courchevel,La Tania and Meribel. There is also a frequent minibus service to village. We will try to return next year. Many thank to Antoine for a memorable stay.

We had a fantastic time staying at Antoine's apartment. We were two adults and two children (8 and 11) and booked this apartment last minute because our travel plans changed. Antoine was very communicative and answered all my questions quickly and easily. We arrived late on Wednesday when the receptionist for the hotel is off, but the keys to the apartment were readily available. the apartment itself, was small, but had everything you need. There was a full bedroom for my wife and I and then bunk beds for the children. If you have not stayed in an apartment like this before you might be surprised that you have to rent sheets and rent towels, but it is a do it yourself vacation and these costs were not expensive at all (total extra cost was 60 euro). The kitchen was well equipped and we were able to cook two nice meals. There is a small supermarket in the village, a larger one on your way into Courchevel and a more extensive supermarket (actually two) in 1850. Getting to the slopes was easy. We rented our skis from Raymonde Sport, but you can also rent skis from other places. Renting from Raymonde worked out well, because we left our skis and boots in the shop overnight and then walked back and forth from the hotel. The walk into the village is about 5 to 10 minutes. There is also a shuttle, but we did not need to take this. The walk was fine. The town is very cute and has a few restaurants and a few stores. If you are also cooking for yourself, there choices are perfect and you do not need anything more. In the center of town is the Gondala for skiing. This takes you directly into the hub of 1850. I would be hard pressed to believe that is much easier to get into the center of the ski lifts, even if you were staying in 1850 proper. The Gondola goes till from 8,45 to 7.30, so you can easily get up to 1850 before the most of the lifts start there. We did ski school for our children and we were a half hour early the first day. Because the lift is open to 7.30, you can get up to 1850 walk around have a hot chocolate (for a price) and still easily make it down. If you want to have dinner in 1850, you would have to take the shuttle back. That said, we would ski down to 1550 (despite a limited amount of snow, they kept the trail into town really well groomed). Change into our boots and head right back up the gondola. All in all the apartment was great for quite a remarkable price. This is not a five star hotel but a place perfect for a family of 4.

Apartment is good equipped en well kept. We enjoyed our stay very much. Apartment is on the reception level but parking en bus stop are both three levels up or down. In case of poor snow conditions you need to take the ski bus. Beautiful view from the living room over the forrest en the mountains. Paul en Ivana
