Caribou Chalet
4 bedroom chalet in Val Thorens. Sleeps 8
A modern chalet located in a quiet part of Val Thorens in the Chalet des Neiges residence, one of the highest residences in the French Alps. You can ski back to within 200m of the Chalet Des Neiges residence, and ski from 300m
Sophistication and cosiness go hand in hand at the Chalet Caribou. Striking the perfect balance between contemporary and old world, this home from home comes complete with slick wooden floors, plush furniture and modern decor, all housed within traditional stone and wood exteriors.
the chalet style apartment is surrounded by the epic mountain scenery of Val Thorens. The lounge has sleek leather sofas to sink into after a day on the slopes and big windows from where you can take in your snowy surrounds. Imagine watching the snowflakes fall softly outside, as you add another log to the open hearth fire, all the while enjoying a cup of tea and a slice (or two!) of homemade cake. Sheer bliss!
This property has the added advantage of being situated in the Chalet des Neiges Residence, giving guests access to the indoor heated swimming pool and the ten person sauna. Having these extra facilities on hand is great particularly if there are non-skiers in your group or simply as an added extra for the little ones in the evening time. The residence also enjoys the convenience of having the ski hire shop right in the heart of the residence so ski and board hire is easily accessible
The neighbourhood
Perfectly positioned close to the slopes, there are also pubs, restaurants and shops galore, all located within a few minutes’ walk from your door.
A 7 minute downhill walk from the residence will bring beginners to the beginner area, alternatively there is a bus stop 300m away from the Chalet des Neiges residence.
