Ski Holidays France

Chalet Aravis is on the sixth floor of the Altitude residence, in the heart of Les Arcs 2000, and is one of the ten chalet apartments we offer here. Perfect for a couple of families or extended family groups, it sleeps just 8 over four double or twin en suite bedrooms.

The popularity of our apartments here is due to the sheer convenience the location offers, as ski access is less than 2 minutes’ away, and childcare is right next door in the de l’Ours residence.

Extra facilities are also comprehensive with all guests having access to the indoor swimming-pool, shared sauna, ski lockers, a small après-ski bar and underground parking, plus there are lifts to every floor.

As with all our catered apartments here, guests will be looked after by a dedicated host, exclusive to the Aravis, who will assist with your holiday needs. Families will have every comfort with a fireplace and TV in the open-plan living and dining area, as well as a balcony from where fabulous views across the valley and resort can be enjoyed.

Our childcare rooms are all located in the Chalets de L’Ours, adjacent to the Altitude and accessible via an underground corridor. Children in our childcare programme will use Chalets McKinley, Machu Picchu and Olympus at lunchtime.

Meals:

Breakfast – is served buffet-style with a selection of cold options including a choice of cereals or porridge, cold meats, cheese and preserves, bread (and croissants in France), fruit juices, tea and coffee and a cooked breakfast of bacon, sausage, eggs and beans. On the staff day off, a continental style breakfast is laid out for you to help yourselves in all chalets.

Afternoon Tea – Every day, apart from our staff day off, a home-baked cake and tea and coffee making facilities are laid out for you to help yourself when you return from the slopes.

High Tea for all children under 11 is at 5.30pm. It is served as a 2 course healthy menu, tailored more towards children’s tastes and puréed food is available for infants.  Parents are asked to accompany their children under 3, whilst 3-10 years old are supervised by our childcare team.  

Evening Meals –  Adult dinner is at 7.30pm comprises 3 courses including an appetiser, main dish and dessert. The meal is accompanied by a prosecco apéritif and a choice of red, rose and white wines, culminating with tea or coffee. A 3 course regional speciality menu is served as one of the 6 evening meals in chalets. This varies by country and the French menu includes charcuterie, goat’s cheese salad, tartiflette and tarte tatin, accompanied by the prosecco apéritif and choice of wines.

On Staff Night Off, you and your family have the opportunity to eat out in one of the local restaurants. Ask our staff for any recommendations.

Family Dining – Many parents prefer to enjoy adult-only company over dinner but if it’s important to you to eat dinner altogether as a family, we offer Family Dining when you book the entire chalet for exclusive use. Dinner is then served from 6.30pm with the menu based on our adult dishes with some flexibility for the children’s preferences. There is a supplement of £39 per child for Family Dining.
