2 reviews of La Falaise Apartments in Avoriaz, France.
Reviewed 9 Apr 2015
We had an excellent week, we’ve stayed in Avoriaz before so had an idea of what to expect. The apartments are quite basic but they were more than adequate for what we needed. I was quite concerned that ours would be quite cramped with four of us and I don’t know if we ended up with a slightly bigger apartment, but ours had a separate room with bunk beds so it all worked quite well. The kitchen was absolutely fine, the bathroom didn’t have a shower curtain so the floor got rather wet but this wasn’t a major problem for us. As with all accommodation in Avoriaz we could ski to the door. This was a last minute booking and we weren’t sure how self-catering would work for us but it was actually really good – we didn’t have to wake up at a certain time in the morning like you do in chalets/hotels and could eat out in the local restaurants in the evenings (tip: you always have to book in advance!).

They were fine, only we didn’t realise that they were so far from the centre of the resort. They’re at the top part of Avoriaz so you can ski in and ski out which was really good, anyone could do it as you go straight onto an easy blue from round the back of the apartments. For the après ski part of it you’d have to lug your skis around, which is the only downside... We ended up skiing in and walking down, you can also get the horse and cart (Avoriaz is traffic free so that’s how they do transport there). Access to the ski school from the apartments is really good if you’re having lessons and there are plenty of shops nearby with a supermarket 2 minutes walk away and a fresh bakery even closer. At the end of the holiday, you’re at the right end of town so you can get out of Avoriaz really easily.
