I stayed in neighbouring Chalet Perce Neige but had a look around Chalet Les Lauzes. The accommodation is basic; it's cosy and traditional with wood panelling. There's a small sauna, but the best thing is simply the location. It's truly ski in/ski out, the E.S.F. lesson meeting point is opposite the front door ... + more

There were 12 of us in the chalet and the general consensus was that the chalet wasn’t very good – it was pretty shabby and really small with no TV or anything like that. Rooms had dim lighting and the ventilation wasn’t very good. The food was fine and the ski in, ski out location couldn’t have been easier... + more

Overview: chalet description: Chalet Les Lauzes description

Les Lauzes is an attractive wooden chalet,nestling right on the slopes, close to the resort centre of Avoriaz, and between our Chalets Violetta / Perce Neige and Chalet Marie.

You can put your skis on in the morning and ski straight through the centre of the village to a choice of lifts, depending on your itinerary for the day. It is also only a short walk to enjoy the après ski scene in the bars and restaurants of Avoriaz centre.

The chalet has an open-plan living and dining area with pine walls giving it a warm and cosy ambience. The sauna is a welcome bonus, and the perfect way to relax after a full day on the slopes.

The cosy intimate Chalet Les Lauzes has proved hugely popular with groups of friends who want immediate access to the slopes and excellent après ski nearby.

Meals: Chalet Les Lauzes food & drink

We set very high standards for our cuisine, and train our staff extensively before the season starts, to ensure that you will thoroughly enjoy every meal on your holiday with us. We also take our Health and Safety responsibilities extremely seriously, so all our chalet and Chalet Hotel staff involved in food preparation are trained to the City & Guilds qualification – Level 2 in Food Safety during the pre-season training course. There is a continental breakfast is every morning and a breakfast hot option, afternoon tea and evening dinners are provided for six days of the week in both chalets and Chalet Hotels.

Breakfast

A good breakfast is essential on a ski holiday, so we provide both a hot option, as well as a continental selection with a choice of cereals or porridge, fruit juices, plentiful tea, coffee and bread (and croissants in France), cold meats, cheese and preserves, which is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself. On our staff day off, only the continental breakfast will be provided.

Afternoon Tea

The traditional ‘welcome home’ after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff day off. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready.

Children's High Tea

In chalets and Chalet Hotels with family guests, High Tea provides children under 11 years with a healthy menu, tailored more towards children’s tastes and puréed food is available for infants on request. High Tea is at 5.30pm, and children do not join the main adult-only dinner.

Dinner in Chalets

In the evenings our hosts will cook you a three-course adult only meal six nights a week. This starts with a glass of prosecco followed by an appetiser, main course and dessert – with unlimited complimentary red, white and rosé wine during service! There is also an option for vegetarians, please warn us in advance.

One of these meals will be a regional meal with the menu depending on which country you are staying in.

On the staff one night off per week just a continental breakfast is provided and it’s a great opportunity for you to experience some local restaurants in your resort. Speak to your resort representative for recommendations and help with reservations.

Vegetarian and Special Diets

Vegetarian options are available in our properties – just advise us at time of bookings so that we can ensure that our staff can prepare. Other special diets can generally be catered for at a cost of £35 per person per week. Any dietary requirements must be advised to us at the time of booking in order for us to be fully prepared. Our Chalet Hosts will discuss your dietary requirements with you upon arrival to the chalet or Chalet Hotel.

Christmas and New Year

All of our chalets and Chalet Hotels will serve a traditional Christmas dinner with a glass of Champagne to start off the evening. This will include roast turkey with all of the trimmings, Christmas pudding, mince pies, crackers and party hats plus a fantastic Alpine atmosphere in which to enjoy the day.

A special festive menu will also be served on New Year’s Eve, alongside the added bonus that many resorts put on fantastic firework displays. A glass of fizz, whilst watching fireworks over the snow-capped peaks of the Alps.. what better way to bring in the New Year!

Our Quality Wines

We are very proud of our wine selection for chalets and Chalet Hotels, which combines crisp and fruity whites with medium to full-bodied reds, for a variety of palates. We select our wines in conjunction with our good friends Nicolas and Véronique – the third generation in the Perret family’s fine wine business based in the Savoie. Nicolas is a qualified wine expert, having trained at the prestigious Burgundy Wine University in Beaune. Each season in October, Nicolas & Véronique bring over a new selection for us to sample (someone has to do it!) and together we choose our wines for the coming season, based on our menus and their pure enjoyment factor. Wine is an incredibly subjective and emotive subject, however, the feedback we have received from our guests over recent seasons endorses our aims of providing wines to enhance your meal and to suit most tastes. We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do!

We update Chalet Les Lauzes's details often, but facilities do change. e.g. some extras listed by the supplier as "free" or included might only be for the first time you use them, or for one time per party, then charged for further use. If any specific feature is essential to your holiday, make sure you ask us to confirm the details of it before you book your holiday.

"Unbeatable location"

Kiah, SNO Staff
4/ out of 5
I stayed in neighbouring Chalet Perce Neige but had a look around Chalet Les Lauzes. The accommodation is basic; it's cosy and traditional with wood panelling. There's a small sauna, but the best thing is simply the location. It's truly ski in/ski out, the E.S.F. lesson meeting point is opposite the front door and it's still only 200m from the centre. If you want a chalet with an unbeatable location, great food and wine and at an affordable price, Chalet Les Lauzes is an excellent choice!

"Great location but disappointed with chalet"

There were 12 of us in the chalet and the general consensus was that the chalet wasn’t very good – it was pretty shabby and really small with no TV or anything like that. Rooms had dim lighting and the ventilation wasn’t very good. The food was fine and the ski in, ski out location couldn’t have been easier. The chalet was also right next to the high street if you needed anything.

This cosy traditional pine walled chalet is light and airy, tucked right into the slope side, meaning you are virtually skiing right out the door. If you are not skiing out of the front door, then you're only a 2 minute walk to Avoriaz village centre where you can experience the lively après ski it has to offer. This chalet has excellent hosts who dish up delicious food served with good wine. If you want to be on the piste in a high car-free resort, you'll not find better.
