Our apartment was fantastic and ticked all the boxes for what we needed. Everything was really good - all comfortable and clean inside - especially for what we paid, they weren’t 5* apartments but we didn’t pay a 5* price.
Two of us in a three person apartment worked quite nicely, a third person would have been sleeping on a pull out futon in the main area which might not have been ideal.
We had probably the best location I’ve ever had skiing – we walked out the door and were maybe 50m to the main lift with the ticket office etc right there. To get to the supermarket was a long walk which took us about an hour (there are little ski shops nearer but not food places). There’s a bar downstairs which was lovely and we liked the little restaurant across the piste when we weren’t cooking in the apartment.
The only thing I would improve would be the showers – there wasn’t even enough space to bend down and pick up your shower gel.

The apartments were all clean, a bit small but for what we needed they were fine. We were a group of 5 mates with one room of 2 and one of 3. You’re right on the slopes so you can walk out the door and pretty much onto the slopes... it takes about 5 minutes to get into town. There’s a little Spar nearby if you want to cook and if you want to eat out, Bardonecchia has some quite nice restaurants (we really liked the one right next door to the apartments).

We had a very good week and our apartment was great. The apartment we had was on 3 levels which was a bit different – you went in the entrance at the top, then down into the living room and could go further down again to the bedroom. There were plenty of beds for the 3 of us – 1 of us slept in the living area and the other 2 were in the bedroom downstairs.
The facilities were excellent and we had a regular cleaner and very good staff. We cooked basic stuff a few times but mostly ate out as there aren’t many shops in the village and the main town of Bardonecchia was a good 10 minute walk away, which was a bit of an effort in terms of carrying shopping about.
They have a very convenient location, the balcony was actually looking over the mountains and it was only a couple of minutes to the first lift.

Italy - great value. Pizza at 4euros beats 20euros in France. Coffee for 1euro. Accomodation was fine. Super near the piste. The resort was family friendly. Bardonecchia’s not big but good for the kids and not heavily skied out even when busy.
