Why go catered when on a Ski Holiday
Have you ever been on a ski holiday and realised how much hard work it is arranging it....... pick ups to and from the airport, ski hire, places to eat, these are just a few things to mention. Just imagine you have a large family to book a holiday for what a headache!
Well a catered ski holiday is what you need. Ski chalet accommodation has been around for a long time, but only in the recent years people are starting to see the benefits of a catered ski chalet holiday. You may think that your holiday is expensive but wait til you see the advantages.
All you need to do is choose your resort and search the web for your ski chalet accommodation. Book your flights and the rest will be taken care of. If you are lucky your ski chalet will even sort out your flights for you. Then what do you do, basically nothing!
Arriving at the airport you will normally be met by your chalet host who will then drive you and your party to your chosen resort and chalet. Normal transfers are around 1.5 hours to 2 hours. Once you arrive at the chalet a hot drink normally awaits you while your host will place your bags in your rooms. Not a bad start to your holiday!
You will find with most ski chalet holidays that on arrival your ski pass will be ready for you so you can begin the next day skiing with no worries about waiting in long queues and wasting valuable ski time.
If you have filled in a booking form before your holiday, the chalet may ask you for details for ski hire e.g. height, foot size etc. and info on ski lessons, if required. This is well worth filling in as your ski hire will be ready and waiting for you at the ski shop and lessons will be pre booked, so no need to worry about ski schools being booked up. How easy is this, wait it gets better!.
In the morning you will awake to a delicious continental breakfast, following which you will be chauffeur driven to the slopes, ready for a days skiing. If you are a beginner to the resort then don’t worry many catered ski chalets offer a free ski guiding service. This normally consists of been shown the best places to ski and great mountain restaurants. After a days skiing you will be met by your host who will then take you for some après ski drinks and then back to the chalet for your dinner.
After your weeks holiday you are then taken back to the airport for your flight home.
A catered ski holiday is definitely the way to go, you do not need to worry about a thing, your ski chalet hosts are there to make your holiday as easy as possible. Catered ski accommodation may be a little bit more expensive than staying in a hotel, but look at the advantages, this way you get a lot more skiing in and less of those headaches!
