Luxury Family Ski Holidays

Many parents worry at the prospect of organising a family ski holiday, especially if the children are too young to hit the slopes themselves. The good news is that skiing with children is not only possible but is great fun too, all it needs is a little planning.
A family’s priority on holiday is making sure that the children are having fun, and with sledging, hot chocolate trips and snowballs, never mind husky dogs, ice caves and climbing walls, children can love their snowy holiday and everything that goes with it.

We’ve built our family skiing packages with you in mind to help you plan the perfect family luxury ski holiday.

If you have any further questions or queries regarding your family ski holiday, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

VIP SKI holidays with children

Everything is taken care of on a VIP SKI holiday, leaving you more time for the all-important snowball fights, hot chocolate stops and ski races. All you need to do is decide which resort and we take care of the rest.

Kids Travel Half Price

Children aged 2-12 on the return date of travel and sleeping in a normal adult bed receive a discount of £75 on the adult price.

Many of our chalets and hotels have family bedrooms with bunk beds, if children are occupying a third or fourth bed in a room they will normally be eligible for a discount of up to 50% off the adult price.

We charge £125 for infants, under 2 years on the return date of travel.

Children's Meals

We serve children under 12 an, age appropriate, evening meal in your chalet at around 5:30pm-6pm. For guests staying in Bear Lodge all meals are served in the restaurant.

Our children's menus are very adaptable, and the chalet host will discuss with you on arrival to tailor meals to your children's liking. We do not provide jars or formula milk, but your chalet host will happily make a fresh puree to your baby’s liking, or powdered formula can be pre-booked.

If you book the whole chalet and would rather your children eat with you later then please advise us at the time of booking along with any dietary requirements your child may have.

If you are staying in a shared chalet we require all children under 12 to eat at the earlier meal time.

Children's Equipment

We understand travelling with young children can be stressful. We often get asked ‘What should we take?’, ‘What equipment will be in the chalet?’, ‘Do you have children’s cutlery?’

We endeavour to make your family ski holiday as seamless as possible. So, to ensure your little ones have everything they need we provide a cot, bed linen and highchair, and children’s cutlery and crockery. In addition we can provide a number of further items free of charge upon request.

We can provide:

- Sterilisers	- Changing mats
- Potties	- Bed guards
- Buggies	- Table booster seats
- Toilet steps	- Stair gates (available in selected chalets)
- Toilet seats

Unfortunately, baby seats are not available on our coach transfers. However, baby seats are available on private taxi transfers and an adult taxi supplement applies.

Nappies
We want your family ski holiday to be as hassle free as possible, so shopping for nappies on arrival is best avoided! You can pre-order nappies, sacs, wipes to be delivered to your chalet for your arrival. This also saves you the inconvenience of having to find space in your suitcase for bulky items like nappies. Items must be booked at least 2 weeks before travel.

Pre-order Nappies at a cost of £25
Pampers Premium Protection 1-6 or Baby Dry Nappy Pants Sizes 4-6. Nappy sacs and Pampers sensitive baby wipes included.

All of these items are subject to availability and should be requested before you travel.

Childcare

Our ski nannies will make your holiday and spoil you with a freedom you’d forgotten existed. Enthusiastic, qualified and caring, they’ll come to your chalet and look after the children. Our private nanny service is available in all our resorts and chalets.

Our private nanny service is available for little ones as young as 12 weeks old. Our nannies are all qualified with NNEB or equivalent qualifications, and our Childcare Manager will allocate the most suitable nanny to care for your little one.

In Les Arcs and Les Gets we offer flexible childcare for all ages in either Bear Cubs, or Polar Bears, a shared childcare service, where your children will be looked after by our dedicated team of nannies in our Bear Cubs Playroom.

All our childcare services include lunch and snacks, and drop off and collection if the children are in ski school.

Family-friendly activities in ski resorts

Choosing the right ski resort for your family holiday can be quite daunting. Whilst you're there to ski, there are plenty of other activities to keep your family entertained. Here are a few ideas of the things you can do in some of our family-friendly ski resorts.

Family ski holidays in Val d’Isere

BEST FOR...Ski school. We have a very good relationship with Oxygene ski school and know the instructors well.
There's a working farm where children are welcomed into the shed to meet the sheep, pigs, a goat, and geese in addition to the named cows, calves and even a Highland cow.
The funicular train is a popular way to get up the mountain, but deserted on the way down again, so children can sit at the front of the train and pretend they are the driver as they shoot down through the tunnel.
There’s a soft play area in the sports centre for younger children with slides, ball pits and matting. For older children, there is an indoor climbing wall in the same complex.
Tignes - Val d'Isere is both incredibly beautiful and packed with potential activities.

Family ski holidays in Arc 1950

BEST FOR...our amazing Bear Cubs playroom by the side of the piste
Economical family bunk rooms in both Bear Lodge and the Suites.
Access the slopes from the front door; simply head to the ski room, clip in and head out!

Family ski holidays in Morzine

BEST FOR...short transfer and lower altitude for young babies.
Morzine’s activities are mostly clustered around the centre of town, where the outdoor ice rink and carousel are in the main square, harnessed trampolines are by the Pleney lift and the little train runs in between. You may also be able to catch a game involving the local ice hockey team, the Morzine-Avoriaz Penguins.

Family ski holidays in Avoriaz

BEST FOR...no cars !
Short transfer and high altitude.
With snowy pedestrianised streets, you can explore the village on foot or on a horse-drawn sleigh! Within the village, there is a fantastic indoor water park, a bowling alley, an ice rink, a cinema and much more to keep the kids entertained.

Family ski holidays in Les Gets

BEST FOR... wandering around in the snow at dusk. When the ski lifts shut outside Altitude Lodge you are surrounded by empty pistes, amazing for a late-night stroll, or bum boarding on the piste.
Short transfer from Geneva, family rooms in our chalet and of course the unbeatable ski in-ski out location.
