Pines & Steam

An indoor lap pool with snow-dusted pines visible through the far window is a rare thing in a ski apartment – and it's just the start of what the resort's wellness area delivers, with sauna, hammam, salt grotto, and a cryo suite all on hand. Back in the apartment itself, the living space is warm and well-designed, with a sunny terrace looking out over the forest. Concierge, valet parking, and a resort shuttle are all included, and ski passes can be delivered directly to your door. The Three Valleys are a thirty-six-minute drive away.

Home truths:
* One of the three bedrooms has no window, so if natural light is important to everyone in your group, it's worth bearing this in mind when assigning rooms.
* The bunk bed is located in an alcove rather than a standalone bedroom – we think it's best suited to children.
* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair. Request these in advance to make sure everything is ready on arrival.
* You'll have access to the on-site swimming pool, spa, and lounge bar here. They're shared with the building's other residents.
* The resort offers a private shuttle service for getting around the local area. You can also use the free Meribus shuttle, which covers the entire valley.
