Although the ski lifts will not be opening before the New Year, our chalets and Les Gets village are open for winter holidays.
The government of France has announced that all ski lifts will be closed for Christmas & New Year period. The good news though is that our chalets, and Les Gets village, will be open and welcoming guests for those who'd like a winter alpine holiday just without the ski lifts.
Our chalets & apartments are open and welcoming guests. We are also running special offers during this time.
All Ski Lifts will be closed over Christmas and New Year. The opening date has not been set as yet, we'll update this page as soon as more information is released.
Les Gets tourist office has announced that the village will be open for tourists despite the lifts being closed. They will be running a programme of events and many open-air activities will be available like normal. Click here to find out more about the winter holidays in les Gets without ski lifts.
Bars are currently closed. Restaurants are open and offering take-away meals only.
The lifts are closed for the first few weeks of the season but our chalets and Les Gets village are still open...

Due to resurgence of COVID-19, and the increased levels of social distancing required, we are unfortunately having to make significant changes to our chalet holidays for this winter.
We are in the process of updating our website to reflect this. Here is a quick summary of the changes below. We will also be contacting all our guests whom are affected by this change.
We will not be providing shared chalets this winter. We usually sell The Alpine Lodge, our flagship chalet on a room by room basis. For this winter will will only sell it on a whole chalet occupancy basis.
We will not longer be able to run our traditional catered chalet holidays with chalet hosts in the chalet with you. Instead, we'll be offering our chalets on a self catered basis, and then you can add-on a meal delivery services for the days you would like.The idea here is to remove the close contact a chalet host would bring by being in your chalet for extended periods.
Our chalets are booked as self-catered, and you can add on meal deliveries for as many days as you would like. We can provide your breakfasts and evening meals. When you arrive in the chalet we'll have stocked it with all the breakfast essentials such as milk, orange juice, cereals, butter, jam and yoghurts. Then each morning we'll deliver freshly baked baguettes, croissants and pain au chocolates. For evening meal you'll get two delicious courses, all full prepared ready for you to pop into the oven, serve and enjoy whenever you would like to eat. We'll do the deliveries each morning and leave it all at your front door to reduce the social contacts.
Firstly, we really are sorry to have to make these changes. We are so very proud if our catered chalet holidays and it's with a heavy heart that we have taken this decision.
If you have booked a catered chalet with us, we will be in touch with you. Your options are:
If you have any questions about your booking with us in the meantime please do get in touch.

Well, that is amazing travel insurance! No problems, we've planned for that too. The above FlexiPlus Cancellation Policy is included in our Standard prices. You can also book our non-refundable Saver prices which do not include the FlexiPlus Cancellation Policy. That is 10% cheaper but doesn't include any of the protections. Please see our page on pricing options for more details.
Our FlexiPlus Cancellation Policy is designed to cover you when governments put any of these covid-19 related travel restrictions in place for everyone. It does not cover you if you, or a party member, cannot travel due to being a close contact or displaying covid-19 symptoms, either before your holiday or in resort. Travel insurance companies are now offering such products and please make sure your travel insurance will cover you for these situations.
For all our guests, whichever winter package they book, we reduced our deposit amount from 40% to our lowest ever level at just 25%.
