Description Pines Through the Snow: Les Allues

Ski in, ski out access to the Chaudanne plateau – Méribel's main departure point for the Three Valleys – means you can spend more time on the mountain and less time in the lift queue. Back at the apartment, the forest views from the bedroom ease you down gently, and the on-site wellness suite does the rest: a sauna, hammam, cryo suite, and indoor pool all within the building. When the slopes close, the lounge bar is right there for a drink without ever venturing back into the cold.

Home truths:
* You'll have access to the on-site swimming pool, sauna, and fitness room here. They're shared with the resort's other guests.
* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair – you'll need to request them in advance.
* The resort's private shuttle is included for getting around the resort, on top of the public Meribus service – so you'll rarely need to drive once you arrive.
