Résidence Ynycio, Tignes Val Claret, Tignes, France

· ski-in, ski-out on the blue Prariond run · in the resort centre · less than 1 minute's walk to the Grande Motte funicular and Bollin chairlift · less than 1 minute's walk to the ski school meeting point and nursery slopes · ski bus stop opposite · less than 1 minute's walk to the nearest supermarket

You’ll be staying piste-side in the Val Claret part of Tignes, so you can click straight into your skis and head off to explore the Tignes-Val d’Isère ski area. Or, for first-timers, the ski school and nursery slopes are just a few steps away.

Inside the residence itself, you’ve got a choice of apartments for up to six people, with separate living rooms and bedrooms so everyone’s got space to spread out. There’s a sleek white and black colour scheme throughout, with bold patterns on the curtains and rugs to add a stylish twist to the look. Fully kitted kitchenettes, with proper ovens and dishwashers, make mealtimes a breeze, and some apartments even have private saunas – après bliss here we come.

The highlights don’t end there. Upgrade to bed and breakfast to make mornings super simple, and in the evenings you can eat à la carte in the Bazurto restaurant to fill up on Latino flavours, from fajitas to tacos. It doubles up as a bar too, so if you’re not in the mood for food, there’s a menu of South American cocktails to tempt you instead. And for some off-slope R&R, swing by the wellness area for a swim or spell in the sauna.
