Arabella, Val d'Isere
Arabella is a beautiful detached chalet blending traditional Savoyarde design, antiques and furnishings with modern facilities. We have been operating this wonderful chalet for nearly 10 years and it is one of our most sought after. Deservedly popular, it enjoys an enviable ski in/out position on the slopes at the foot of Solaise. From the front door a short ski down a gentle blue takes you straight to the village, the nursery slopes and the main lifts of Solaise and Bellevarde. A free local mini bus service operates during the day to connect with the ski bus at Rond Point or you can walk across the slopes to the resort centre in approximately 10 minutes.
It's quite unusual to get space in French chalets, they tend to make the most of small areas, fortunately this isn't the case here, Arabella boasts a spacious living room with a double height ceiling. Plenty of comfortable seating encourages you to relax around the magnificent stone fireplace providing a focal point to enjoy your pre-dinner canapés. The five twin bedrooms all have en- suite facilities and most have access onto one of the many balconies or terrace with lovely mountain views.

Breakfast
Chalets and chalet hotels offer a buffet selection of cereals, fresh fruit and yoghurts, freshly baked local bread and jams accompanied by fruit juices, tea and coffee. In addition there is a daily cooked option such as scrambled egg and tomato (not a full English!) served each day apart from the chalet staff day off and change over day. For the traditional skiers amongst you we can of course offer porridge on request!
Afternoon Tea
On your return from the slopes, discuss the day's skiing with your fellow guests whilst helping yourself to afternoon tea. Bread and jam and a slice (or two) of delicious home-made cake or biscuits should help keep hunger pangs at bay until dinner time.
Dinner
With the theme of a casual dinner party in mind, your chalet hosts serve a delicious 3 course meal at 8 p.m. giving you plenty of time to rest aching muscles and recuperate after your day skiing. House wine is available throughout dinner coffee to finish. Chalet staff always aim to please and if given notice will as much as possible adapt their menus to your specific tastes and dietary requests however we cannot provide vegan, kosher or gluten free meals and cannot guarantee a nut free environment.
Wine
We serve a house red and white wine in all of our chalets, a small wine list is available in your chalet should you wish to purchase additional wines or you can of course choose to purchase your own wines in resort.
Children's Supper
We provide a child friendly supper at around 6pm for all children under 12years, if you have sole use of a chalet and you would prefer your children to eat a normal dinner with you at 8pm there is a fee to upgrade.
