Guest feedback for this chalet

Friendly, polite and helpful staff (cook/hostess and drivers) – nothing was too much trouble! X

Sandy Goodson – March, 2024

Francesca was wonderful, her cooking was delicious and she catered really well to one of our guests dietary requirements. We spent plenty of time enjoying the hot tub soaking our sore muscles after a long day of skiing/snowboarding... Thank you so much for making it so special!

Hugh Frolich – March, 2024

Fantastic flexible and friendly company to book with. The staff were equally nice and very helpful. Thanks!

Tim Archibold – February, 2024

Amazing holiday and the staff were all excellent, would highly recommend to friends.

Stanton Borthwick - April, 2023

Our 5th stay with Ski Basics, always great, fab staff and never any issues with food/catering but I have to say Claudia is undeniably the best cook yet, a cut above the rest. As I said, no complaints with any of the others before (and we thought Sarah was great 2 weeks earlier this year) but Claudia was simply at the next level.

Robert Smith - February, 2023

We have been coming with Ski Basics for years and always had an excellent time and this year has been the same.

Clifford Aitken - January, 2023

We had a lovely time, Una our host was just amazing! We were a slightly smaller group than planned but still had a fantastic time. The chalet and hot tub were lovely and all the Ski Basics team were knowledgeable and due to an injury that meant I couldn’t be on the slopes everyday, gave me helpful tips for walks and non-ski activities around Meribel.

Lisa Somerville - January, 2022

We have had the best time and we will definitely book again. Everything went very smoothly and the service all round was excellent. Thank you all so much!

Annette Stephens - January, 2020

Such a lovely time. Lizzie was the perfect host. Made me feel like royalty! See you all next year!

Benjamin Rumble - February, 2020

We had an absolutely amazing time. Molly looked after us extremely well and was very helpful in catering for the needs of the kids. The food Molly cooked up was fantastic and was just what you needed after a days skiing. Molly was always helpful and accommodating. We could not have asked for more. The drivers - James, Lee, and et al - where very helpful especially with the two younger kids.

Peter Barron - March, 2019

The chalet was perfect, very clean and tidy. Bedrooms were great size.

Daniel Goldgin - February 4, 2018

Lovely chalet and excellent condition! Everything was as we would expect from Ski Basics – excellent!

Fiona Prestidge - February 25, 2018

A wonderful team of hosts, their welcome nature and great hospitality skills made a tremendous impact on our holiday. Thank you again!

Jackie Guthrie - December, 2018

Absolutely loved every min of the holiday, credit to all the staff who have been really lovely x Merry Christmas from the white family.

Lee White - December, 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
