Club Med Chamonix Mont-Blanc, Chamonix, France

If you're unfit and lazy don't go here. Many people go on about having to get a bus, it really doesn't matter, the buses are so regular and it's a good time to strategise your day, everyone's in the same boat you just have to get on with it. The mountains in Chamonix look amazing, photographers go crazy in Cham. Going with a guide and doing Valley Blanche is a must from the top of the Aguille Midi, it's something you have to do in your life time. You're reward for a scary roped up entrance will be glacial sites, skiing away from any traffic and people and finishing off with a mountain train ride back to a pub in Chamonix, mountain refuge stop on the way for lunch. Club Med in Chamonix is a good base, very central and for those that like eating prepare yourself (try not to eat anything the week before). If you think you're the best skier or board then think again..... someone in Cham will have bigger skis than you, skied deeper, gone faster or jumped further let alone climbed higher... Do it!

After skiing for twenty years I found the best holiday I've had at club med Chamonix. The food was delicious, so much choice and very helpful staff. Our guide was the beautiful Britt, who could not do enough for us. She gave instruction all day with a smile and laughter. Lunch on the slopes in Club Meds own chalet was a great bonus for us meeting all the skiers from the hotel and enjoying a drink with Mount Blanc in the background. After a days skiing a few more drinks and snacks all included. A dip in the outdoor pool before dinner. And then entertainment with the hotel's staff. It's you again next year Club marvelous Med.
