ESI Grand Massif

Reviewed By mataylor2

This is the first year we have taken our 4 & 5 year old skiiing as a family in Flaine. Virginie whom we emailed to book everything with was fantastic from prompt emails, clear booking forms and general reassurance emails to me before we came. A lovely friendly lady in person too! Then upon arrival I had a private instructor 'Michele' for a few hours as a 'refresher' as I haven't skied in 10 years who was extremely calm and patient with me. Gave me back my confidence. Also we didnt stop so really got my monies worth. My two children had 'Seb' who was happy, calm, patient (unlike some instructors we seen) and the kids loved him! He understood my children's needs and that my son was of a better ability than my daughter so tried to take him down larger slopes and because of him it brought a tear to my eye watching my children ski for the first time, and now want to come back again! It may of been because we went out of term time (yep tut tut) but they only had 4 in their ski club so almost private tuition which was ace. A break mid way through with a snack and a drink and toilet stops. Cant fault it.

Station de Ski les Carroz

One of the largest ski areas The Grand Massif is one of the largest ski areas situated at the heart of the Upper Savoy region of the Northern Alps, between Geneva and Chamonix. 5 linked ski resorts ranging from 700 m to 2500 m in altitude: Flaine, Les Carroz, Morillon, Samoëns and Sixt. The Les Carroz ski resort at 1140 m in altitude is the most easily accessible of them all. From december, the 12th 2015 to April, the 17th 2016

For such a small ski station I must say I am more than impressed. Went to ski for the day and putting aside the luck we had with the weather - Fresh powder, and sunshine. I would like to congratulate the ski station for the logistics, the friendliness of the staff in the town and up in the clouds. Let me get to the most important part of my review: The F&B outlet up near the slopes. Wow! 1. Staff were incredible! the restaurant was full to the brink, but yet they were extra friendly and served every customer as if this was their home. 2. Albeit us just having burgers, the freshness of the meat on that burger trumped anything you would find at ground level (and I live in Switzerland). And the fries.. the fries...the fries.. Yum! Would definitely recommend!

Domaine skiable FLAINE

Reviewed By M5515APangelob - Headingley, United Kingdom

Unlike many other French multiresort ski areas it is very easy to get between all 5 villages and they all have quite different feels and types of slope so there’s a good variety. Not a lot of black runs and those there are look either terrifying or too filled with moguls for my 47 year old knees. But lots of really enjoyable blue and red runs with great views. Unfortunately this year there wasn’t enough snow low down for the 14km Cascades blue run to Sixt to be open (we enjoyed it last year) and the snow at the bottom in Morillon was very thin, which was a shame as the runs down to it are nice, including a fun family safari on a green through the forest.
