More about Chalet Etoile

Chalet Etoile is a charming and cosy ski chalet. This delightful chalet sleeps 6 and is situated in the heart of Meribel Village, at the centre of The Three Valleys.

Meribel Village is a brilliant location for independent travellers. The excellent Lodge du Village offers pizzas and live music, the bakery is perfect for snacks and takeaways and the Lapin run will bring you all the way home after a long day on the slopes. The high-speed Golf chairlift will take you straight to the Altiport; an absolute mecca for beginners, and also connects you to the outstanding Three Valleys lift network for those wishing to head further afield.

Guest feedback for this chalet

Our host Katie was excellent. Eloise was also very knowledgeable and helpful. Everything was made easy thanks to the Ski Basics team.

Ross Attfield – February, 2024

Thank you so much to our host Katie. She looked after us and fed us extremely well over the week. She was so friendly & helpful with any queries we had. Also to Eloise. Nothing was too much trouble.

Annita Dunnage – January , 2024

A 10 year hiatus with Ski Basics did little to diminish the excellent service, staff and location of the chalet. Great trip and see you next year!

Jon Cooper – January , 2024

We had a great ski holiday largely due to Ski Basics and Becky. Chalet and its location were absolutely great. Good food, decent wine. I would definitely recommend Ski Basics for quality, attention to detai,l and value for money. Thanks Cheryl, Becky, Tilly, et al.

Keith Parfrey – March, 2023

A huge thank you to Becky. She looked after all our various requests beautifully and all her meals were delicious. Banana loaf and cookies were the best!

Sophie Fish – January, 2023

We were a group of 6 friends skiing for a week. Ski Basics gave us an excellent service from initial booking through the stay. Over all the traditional chalet is clean, cosy and welcoming with everything we needed. Proximity to the lift and aprez ski was brilliant. Lifts to and from the slopes if we needed. I would stay again with Ski Basics.

Angela Brown – March, 2022

A great great host, we will miss you Amelia! The chalet was very close to the ski lifts and not too cosy for 6 people. A double bed upstairs would have been a good plus.

Marion Flahaut - March, 2022

The chalet is superbly located in the centre of Meribel Village, with easy ski-in and out option as well as super helpful Ski basics drivers at peak times. The free bus is also a tiny walk away. Our hostess Jenny was super-efficient and friendly, great with kids and adults alike, and cooked us amazing cakes that awaited us every day after skiing. Thanks all for a wonderful week.

Perrine Faye – February, 2020

Shannon and Alex looked after us well. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Meribel Village.

Leuan Jenkins – February, 2019

Comfortable chalet in an ideal location, excellent cuisine, outstanding staff. A fabulous week all round and I would definitely look to return to Meribel Village next year.

Neil Hatton – January, 2019

We have had a wonderful holiday, thank you. Shannon has been an excellent host and cook and has gone the extra mile to help us get the kids ready to leave in the morning and adapting the food choices to suit our son’s food preferences. The chalet has always been clean and beautifully presented and we loved the Christmas tree.

Muriel Hoffner – December, 2018

Nicole was absolutely brilliant. She entered into the spirit of our family holiday right from the off and helped towards making it a great time.

Jacky Balchin – February 11, 2018

We had an excellent holiday, helped by the well picked staff. Who go out of their way to ensure we had all we needed.

Clifford Aitken – January 7, 2018

Our 5th consecutive year in Chalet Etoile, it feels like our home from home. So convenient and perfect for our family.

Jane Peterson – January 14, 2018
