The Abricot was very disappointing to be honest. The staff were great, but we’d paid a phenomenal amount for the week. Obviously it was half term and the flights would have been a part of that, but for the amount of money it costed, the chalet was really tired. Obviously you can’t change the physical layout, ... + more

Location: where is Chalet Abricot

Chalet Abricot is situated in the Balcons 5 building. This position offers excellent access to the skiing as it is just 25 metres (approx.) to the piste. The Plein Sud lift goes straight past the complex and competent skiers can enjoy the convenience of skiing practically to the door in good conditions. For beginners, the shuttle bus stops right outside reception for access to the other lifts. The shops, lively bars and restaurants of Val Thorens are just a short walk away. For guests’ convenience there are two restaurants, a bar offering snacks, a ski hire shop and a mini market within the complex.

Superb access to ski hire - Less than one minute walk (approx.) to rental shop

2300m at the top of the Three Valleys ski area, VT is the highest ski resort in Europe and part of the biggest linked ski area on the planet. While it's a place for people who, above all else, love to ski, you'll also find some of the country's best après including the legendary Folie Douce, as well as weird and wonderful activities like the 1300m Tyrolienne zip wire. Olde worlde gallic charm it isn't, but skiers will wake up to find some of the best snow in the Alps on their doorstep, and the views over the...
At the summit of the largest ski area in the world and bordering the Vanoise National Park, this is a spectacular place to ski and board. Beginners are well catered for on nursery slopes by the Rond Point des Pistes, where the magic carpets often don't require a lift pass. Kids will love the Junior Park, while the Musaraigne and Campagnols runs in the beginner's area and the new Deux Combes green are perfect to practice on. With a bit more confidence, take the Pionniers or Plein Sud chairs for some cruisy lon...
The après ski here easily rivals other top resorts in the Alps. If you haven't already had the Folie Douce experience, head just under the Plein Sud lift where the "dancefloor on top of the world" is heaving from 3 pm. Another place to party is Bar 360 at the end of the blue Moraine run, which always has live music and cheaper drinks. Back in town, Rue de Gebroulaz is a hub of lively bars where O'Connells is the local Irish pub. The Frog and Roastbeef is a long-time favourite of Brits. L'Eclipse on Galerie Caro...

"Paid a lot for a tired chalet"

Caroline, Hampshire
1/ out of 5
The Abricot was very disappointing to be honest. The staff were great, but we’d paid a phenomenal amount for the week. Obviously it was half term and the flights would have been a part of that, but for the amount of money it costed, the chalet was really tired. Obviously you can’t change the physical layout, but as an example, you’d sit on the sofa and the cushions would all slip off. The chalet hosts were a little older than the usual young people you get, they were great and the food was very good. The location wasn’t great for beginners, you couldn’t ski back unless you were a good intermediate. We had children with us and it was a bit of a trek.

"Twenty five yards from the lift!"

Enjoy the phenomenal views that are on offer from this super spot perched above the town of Val Thorens. For confident skiers, ski-in is often possible, but the 25metre walk to and from the lift is hardly demanding as you wake up each morning to a snowy peaked view outside the door. The shuttle bus which also stops outside the building is perfect for a more leisurely trip to the town, which on foot is only five minutes. We loved to end the day relaxing with fellow skiers in the luxury spa and wellness facilities, all as part of the perks of staying in the Balcons complex.
