At the center of Trois Vallees, the world's largest ski area, Meribel gives easy access to the entire vicinity and its more than 400 miles of pistes. Within Meribel itself, the Altiport is for beginners while Saulire and Tougnète are mixed use, and Mont du Vallon serves up long, steep advanced runs against a gorgeous backdrop.

I would recommend Oxygene for adult ski school. Our instructor Ivano was an excellent instructor and he progressed everyone in our small group from skiing down easy blue runs on day 1 to confidently skiing down a black run on our final day. I would definitely recommend Oxygene.

It was my first time skiing and Ski D Light made it a fantastic experience! I was there with my boyfriend (an experienced skier) and we had David as our instructor. David was a great teacher - clear, patient, reliable and skilled. I was soon going around by myself and feeling confident to do so. He even took my boyfriend for a few harder runs while I took a breather! Plus, he gave us a great recommendation for lunch and was great to hang out with!

I recently booked some private ski lessons through the Snow School, I spoke to Paul who arranged the lessons for the times and days I wanted, all very easy and straight forward. I was a complete beginner and my lessons with Lorenzo were paced exactly as I needed, he was supportive and encouraging and I have just completed my first “Green Runs”....

Marmalade Ski School

Reviewed By GFes2020 - Oakham, United Kingdom

Two afternoons with ski instruction from Millie and my skiing is transformed! What I love about Millie’s style is that she has superb observation skills, she works within the capabilities of your body and fitness levels and she has the experience and insight to choose the best exercises and drills to create change. She is fun to be with and she challenges you to work outside your comfort zone and trust the process. I had lost confidence and she helped me regain it really quickly. The remainder of the week’s skiing was revelatory and completely joyful! Lots of practice with the new drills and complete control on all levels of steep. Thanks, Millie and see you next year!

Les Allues

Part of the Meribel Ski Resort

Reviewed By jsiTimberframe

Arriving last week of February we were welcomed by Abby and Tj who looked after us extremely well throughout our stay . We were a party of 14 consisting of 8 adults and 7 children . The chalet is warm and comfortable , and homely , ideal for families who want to feel relaxed with children The chalet is ideally placed for the ski shop ,( down stairs , very efficient ) the bus stop 20mtrs away and the bubble 5 minute walk. Ski Blanc staff were all warm, friendly and helpful. We had a ski locker at meribel centre which i would recommend if you have children. We used the ski blanc minibus most evenings to return to the chalet after a couple of hours of apres ski . We would recommend ski blanc who were excellent .Our whole group agree Tj and Abby made us feel very welcome throughout our stay , Tj's breakfasts and evening meals we excellent and Abbys cakes and biscuits were superb. We did hear the early morning deliveries on a couple of occasions about 5.30 am , but to be honest we were all that tired from great skiing it wasnt a problem . The hot tub was a bonus , it was emptied and refilled during our arrival day which was good to see and both children and adults thoroughly enjoyed using it.

Piste des Inuits

Set out to discover the world of the Arctic! According to legend, a long time ago the Inuit people took refuge in the heart of the Altiport forest because it reminded them of their distant lands. Since then, skiers have been transported into the Inuit world, enjoying games involving chimes, igloos, ice fields, penguins, bears and seals. Halfway along this piste you will find the Inuit Village, the ideal place for little adventurers to take a pause in the Far North. While their children enjoy the games organised by Inuit entertainers, parents can relax in the Méribel sunshine. This year, the Inuit Village will be even more fun, offering new games and entertainments to amaze the children. And the littles ones who have been good will discover the Inuit are generous with their gifts.
