Great week at the Carambole, our chalet maid Nonnie was awesome and she made the most amazing cakes! The lift was a bit slow, but that’s the only thing I can think of that could be better. Overall I would recommend staying here! + more

Luxury, location and magnificent views, there is not much to fault when the chalet hosts bring their A-game and the wine is flowing. It's a short five minute walk from the resort centre, and the bus stop for easy access is a matter of feet away from your front door. Crucially, at less than 100ft from the lifts,... + more

Location: where is Chalet Carambole

PLEASE NOTE: Images are not of Chalet Carambole but a property similar in style within the same complex.

Chalet Carambole 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...

"Super close to the lift & a nice ambiance"

Luxury, location and magnificent views, there is not much to fault when the chalet hosts bring their A-game and the wine is flowing. It's a short five minute walk from the resort centre, and the bus stop for easy access is a matter of feet away from your front door. Crucially, at less than 100ft from the lifts, you're often able to ski right back to within a snowball's throw of your room. Local bars, shops, and ski hire are also within a whisker. All in all this is a great example and a contributing factor to our guests choosing to come to Val Thorens again and again.
