LES ARCS, FRANCE

Easy transfer from the airport, dropped off at the chalet door. The Chalets are part of a complex of rooms. Each chalet has a number of rooms to it, ours had 5 twin rooms each with its own bath/shower room. Our hosts looked after the 10 of us very well providing the full chalet experience, food was also very good. The advantage of the complex is that we had the full free use of the in complex sauna, jacuzzi and useful swimming pool which has a fantastic view of the mountains, all great to relax after a day's skiing. The in complex ski/boot room is easily accessible. Lifts helped us get up to our room. The resort is extensive with a good variety of different runs. Access from the chalet is via a short 2 minute walk which gets you to the bottom of a fairly easy short button lift. The access to the other Arcs resorts are also very easy to get to and return. Also it is very easy to get across to the la plagne area for a days skiing before returning to Arc 2000. My wife is a cautious skier and she wants to go back for a second visit. Food on the slopes does not need to be expensive as there are enough places that provide a good variety of food for different budgets. There is an excellent little cafe at the bottom of the first button lift, great food at very good prices.
