WE LIKE

  • Good position on the main Portes du Soleil circuit, giving access to very extensive, quite varied runs
  • Accommodation next to the slopes & ski lifts too
  • Great children's facilities in a car-free resort

WE DON'T LIKE

  • Non-traditional architecture, which some find ugly and not at all charming
  • Little to do off the slopes suprisingly - a few additional activities or you can get a bus to Morzine
  • Can get very crowded at weekends as locals flock to the pistes and terrain parks
