Having previously been to Valmeinier 7 times previously, staying in a hotel in the heart of the village, we decided that this year, we wanted to stay in a self contained apartment where we could relax and enjoy our own space as a family. We wanted an apartment that was close enough to the village that we could fetch supplies as and when needed, but wasn't miles away from everything. This apartment fitted the bill perfectly - approx 1km from the village centre (so quickly / easily accessed by car if needed) but also easy to ski back to with your rucksack stocked up after stopping off in the village on the way home after sking all day! To get to the lifts in the morning, you have a short walk up the road where you join a small path that you can ski down to the Inversins lift or Girodiere lift within minutes. The apartment has all the facilities you need for self contained family holiday, is clean, spacious and well equipped. Robert was extremely responsive and helpful to all of our pre-trip and in-holiday questions so we would highly recommend this property - so much so, that we have already booked to return next year!
