Minor details... A box of tissues in the bedroom would have been nice, the hair drier in the bathroom really was useless. Positives... Tom and Josh were exceptional hosts. Amazing cooks and looked after us in a quiet, no nonsense manner + more

Indiana Lodge Summary

We are really excited to introduce Chalet Indiana which borders the forest at the end of the exclusive ‘Dou du Pont’ area and overlooks Meribel. There are few chalets that rival its prime location.

Sympathetically refurbished and extended over the previous 24 months by its French owner, Chalet Indiana combines contemporary touches with the Meribel style craftsmanship which is so beloved in the mountains.

Chalet Indiana is perfectly designed for large families or groups of friends with a generous open plan lounge and dining area in the heart of the chalet. Sumptuous sofas surround an open fire place where you can enjoy a glass of fizz after an exhilarating day on the piste. Walk out through the glass doors on to the large balcony with stunning views where you will find the hot tub bubbling away.

Add to this a large cinema room for those all important movie nights or just relax in the sauna, you will need an extra week just to fit it all in.

The chalet boasts six individually styled bedrooms, five of which are fully ensuite including NEW bathrooms throughout, all with views over the resort or the forest and the mountains beyond.

Add La Neva for larger parties of 16… you can book our brand new adjoining 2 bedroom fully en-suite self catered apartment la Neva which has a connecting door into the chalet and benefits from its own kitchen, lounge, dining room and private hot tub! A fantastic option for larger groups or multiple families wanting space.

Meribel’s famous bars and restaurants are a 500 metre walk away with a wide variety of options for aprés ski or evening entertainment if you can tear yourself away from the chalet. Of course we have our excellent on call, all day driver service to whisk you to and from your chalet.

Meribel's location is tricky to beat, slap bang in the centre of the mammoth Three Valleys ski area. British made, and largely Brit run, it's a destination we flock to year after year for a homely atmosphere in a good looking resort with more than enough pistes for a week (or three). It's made up of a huddle of gorgeous hamlets, built in traditional wood and stone and surrounded by thick woodland. The main area is Meribel Centre (usually known just as Meribel). A traditional alpine village with choc-box chale...
Meribel is one of the best ski resorts to learn in. There are three beginner areas known as 'Ski Facile' (easy ski) plus great green pistes to practise on including Le Foret and Altiport. Both runs are carefully planned out so you can practice at your own pace in quiet surroundings. If you're skiing with children, there are fantastic ski schools and child-orientated areas, including animal sculptures scattered around the trees at the 'Pistes des Animaux' where children can learn about local wildlife as they e...
Whether your day on the hill leaves you wanting to relax with a vin chaud, have a pint and play pool, or party the night away, your time off the slopes can be as varied as the day spent cruising the incredible Trois Vallees. It's said that you haven't experienced après ski here (or anywhere for that matter) until you've sampled toffee vodka in Le Rond Point, which is easily one of the most famous après ski bars in the world - complete with a slide down to the toilets! Meribel's rightly famous for its nightl...
