Meribel Chalets centre
Meribel is a large and scattered resort, don't be confused, there are many smaller villages such as Raffort, Chandon and Les Allues, upto 6kms away, from the centre. This chalet is located in the centre, however the centre does not mean that the shops, bars and main lift area are all on your doorstep. All our chalets are located all round the resort centre, and only a ten minute or less walk to the shops and bars.
The main lift area is slightly beyond this and although you could walk, there is no need as we operate a minibus service. The chalet is three floors over a ground floor, which at the front is a small fromagerie, selling the best of local cheeses. Set back slightly from the road, the chalet is real town centre. If you are looking for something that is a short walk from everything then this is the chalet for you.
Our minibus service means that one of our drivers will take you from outside your chalet down to the main lift area and ski schools in the morning, its approximately a four minute ride, at the end of the day you can text your driver for a collection home, even from the Rond Point. It is less than a five minute walk to the shops and bars of an evening.
Chalet Ecureuil is in Meribel town centre. This chalet is very popular due to it's location and modern new style. As you enter the chalet spotlights on the stairs light the way, and you immediately feel a sense of style.
The chalet is three floors spread over the ground floor. On the first floor is a twin and a double bedroom both with stylish with en-suite bathrooms. The next level has a sauna and steam room and a further two stylish en-suite twin bedrooms, go a little further up on this floor and you enter the modern open plan living space.
The sun shines through the large windows and balcony doors and as you go onto the terrace, you feel a sense of resort life, there are spectacular views and a real buzz, you can sit in the outdoor hot-tub and watch the world pass as the stars come out. The open plan living is smart and a log burner warms this, where you can simply relax.
On the third floor is another twin bedroom fully en suite. This chalet can be enjoyed by anyone, family groups or not, if you want to be in the centre of it all then this is the chalet for you.
