Hi all


Sorting out my trip early for a change and piecing together accommodation etc for Morzine. I’ve been to Les Gets before and have done part of Morzine, there’s 5 of us going who’ll just be getting the Morzine/Les Gets lift pass. Got a group of people we know staying in Morzine the same week of January we’re looking at but being away from them isn’t an issue, they’re paying £685. Catered, inc lift pass, flight, transfer.

Group of 5, 1 couple + 3 singles, one of the group needing lessons to perfect linking of turns.



Definately having to work on a budget so £600 is the limit

Was originally going to look at going self catering (did that before to Les Gets) would cost about £430, got a couple of options of going catered though for about an extra £20 per person per night but they are out of town (but do include a sauna and one with sauna + hot tub)


Getting a lack of feedback from the other people going and I really can’t decide which options going to be best, from previous experience has anyone got any advice/comments.....

We aren’t big drinkers so staying out of Morzine isnt an issue, we could always drink after boarding before going back to the chalet or could just get dropped into Morzine on 2 of the 7 nights.





Option 1
Go self catering- cost about £430 - would just need food on top of that




Option 2

Catered chalet 6 minute drive from Morzine – too far to walk to town - comes in at around £590 catered, inc transfer, lift pass, flight.

http://www.chaletsdirect.com/morzine/perrier.htm or www.offpistemadness.com

Nice modern looking chalet, Chalet comes with 4 person Sauna, would be sharing chalet with 6 other people most probably

Free trips into town in the minibus

SUANA, WIFI, PS2, DVD, TV, HEATED BOOTROOM, WASHING MACHINE AND DRYER.
7 NIGHTS CATERED ACCOMMODATION
FREE BEER AND WINE
SKI GUIDING
MINIBUS SERVICE






Option 3
Catered chalet 13 minute drive from Morzine, comes in at £576 catered, inc transfer, lift pass, flight.

Free minibus service to slopes etc
Slightly older looking chalet than option 2 but has a Hot Tub + Sauna. Would be sharing the chalet with 3 girls apparently.

Plenty of room in the chalet, we’d have 3 rooms between the 5 of us. A spare bed not being used in each.

Chalet is based in a very very small French resort so we’d be able to get a couple of hours boarding in there on arrival day.
Free bar 4-11pm
6 nights catered accommodation - on the 7th night they provide the food and you can cook, or go out to eat
Hot tub + sauna
Wii- dvd,




It's a tough one, Option 2 has ski guiding + sauna, I dont really think we'd use the sauna much, where as a hot tub we'd definately all use each day.
