Welcome to Ski Amis

 

Since 1989, we have been providing quality ski holidays to the French Alps based on our concept of “The Personal Touch”.  Despite our growth in recent years, we believe that our guests deserve to be well looked after, no matter which holiday they choose - we strive to provide an excellent level of service in our catered chalets and to offer our self catered guests a full backup in resort with the same resort services as those available to our catered guests in the same resort.

As a family business, we care for each and every guest individually and try to provide a package which is as flexible as possible to their individual needs - whether that relates to the accommodation, travel arrangements or in the resort

We set the standards of our chalets ourselves and carefully recruit, train and monitor our staff to ensure that these standards are maintained …. so you can be sure our staff will deliver a great service, wherever you go.

We base our concept on:  

bulletQuality accommodation in both our premium and standard chalets with some budget options also available ...
bullet Something for everyone ..... a variety of chalet sizes from small 8-10 person chalets up to large chalets and groups of chalets to sleep up to 75 guests under one roof ....
bulletA range of self catered accommodation to suit your needs ...
bulletExcellent catering ... whichever catered chalet you choose ... our menus are set by us centrally and our staff are trained how to prepare them so you will find the same quality wherever you go ...
bulletPersonal service ... for all our guests ...
bulletValue for money ...
bulletFlexibility ... on travel and accommodation ...
bulletNo hassle ... we take care of everything in the resort so YOU only have to enjoy your holiday ...
bulletQuality staff ... no inexperienced kids running chalets, our staff are all fully trained and managed closely in the resort ...
bulletGood locations in good resorts .... our chalets are either on or close to the pistes in good resorts with good snow records .....

..... it all goes together to make "The Personal Touch" ... but don't take our word for it ... read down this page to see what our guests say about us year after year

We hope you find what you are looking for on our site - follow the buttons on the left hand menu bar to find all the information you need about our company and the holiday experience we can provide and we look forward to speaking to you and meeting many of you personally in the resorts this winter.  

Ed and Christine

 

Testimonials

Here's what some of our guests have said about us in recent years:

"Just wanted to say thanks for a another great holiday.  Chalet Nicolette in Le Bettaix had superb hosts, and the company of the other guests was good and entertaining.  The space in the chalet is good.  The lessons we had with Snow Bow, were excellent, nice small group.  We have enjoyed the Ski Amis format, the food is good (still not too sure about the turkey bake!), and unlike some operators don't ration the wine, and allow any opened bottles to be finished on the night. The choice at breakfast is good as well its nice to have the choice of a hearty breakfast or continental.  Hopefully we will be back next season"  Buchanan Family, Chalet Nicolette, March 2008

"We have just spent a week at Chalet Lorraine in Le Bettaix and wanted to feedback how much we enjoyed our week in the chalet. The staff were friendly and very accommodating and provided excellent customer service, and all the food was of a high standard.  We look forward to holidaying with Ski Amis again."  Jacqui and Gerry Papworth, Chalet Lorraine, March 2008

"We are back home today had such a fab week, our chalet hosts were 1st class, really made our week, the food was excellent they made a real effort to make me nice Gluten free meals and cakes. Would recommend Ski Amis to other friends, we met with the ski host for a days skiing, such a superb day."  Gill Brooker, Chalet Estelle, March 2008

"We have just returned from a week away in Montalbert in Chalet Anniek.  Everything was great, the Chalet, La Plagne and the skiing.  Just wanted to give some excellent feedback for the hosts.  They were first class in every respect: attentive, diligent, accommodating.  They worked quietly and efficiently cooking excellent food and keeping the Chalet in tip-top order.  Nothing was too much trouble and everything was kept to perfect timings.   They really made the Chalet a welcoming and pleasant place to be, and worked tirelessly"   Bob, Mel and Wilfred Barker, Chalet Anniek, February 2008 

"Please pass on to your staff our appreciation for ALL that they have done both during our holiday (best chalet hosts EVER) and afterwards helping with our unforeseen circumstances.  Ski Amis have and will be well and truly broadcasted as the best company to book with"  Roy and Nora, Chalet Flora, January 2008

"I just wanted to drop you a line to say a big thank you for a wonderful skiing holiday. We stayed at Chalet Delfina in Les Menuires at the end of January and had a super time. We were looked after very well by great chalet hosts. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they helped to make our holiday very special. We have travelled with the majority of large ski operators, but I would say that your service is better than these companies. The chalet location was perfect, the food very good, the cleanliness top notch and being walked down to the ski hire shop by your staff was something we didn't expect and helped to kick the holiday off to a good start. I would certainly recommend travelling with Ski Amis to my friends who are looking for a holiday with a more personal touch. Julia and Lee Dixon, Chalet Delfina, January 2008

"Thank you so much for organising such a great trip for my wife and I last week - we had a wonderful time. The chalet we stayed in (Estelle) was very well run by our chalet hosts - they were excellent hosts and provided an outstanding service for all guests throughout the week. From the moment we arrived we felt welcomed and looked after - it was the best ski trip we have experienced to date, the fact that ski hire, passes etc were organised on our behalf added to the positive experience with Ski Amis Colin Bell, Chalet Estelle, February 2008

"Apologies this is such a late email, but since we arrived home just over a week ago it feels like we were never away as work has been manic!  I just wanted to thank you to you and your team especially our wonderful chalet hosts at Delfina! The food all week was amazing, they really were fantastic and were such good fun!  Please send our thanks to them... and just say 'We'll meet again... don't know where don't know when....' they'll know what I mean!  Apart from the minor hick-up at the airport for the 2nd bus and the few little mistakes with ski hire etc (which were all forgotten about after about 30 seconds!) it was an amazing holiday that everyone thoroughly enjoyed, so thank you very much!Carly Pickering and the 'Snowmonkeys 2008', Chalet Delfina, January 2008
 

"Have recently returned from a weeks skiing in Les Menuires with a group of my friends.  I just wanted to say what a fantastic time was had by all. Our chalet hosts were fantastic and other than a delay with the transfer from the airport to the chalet (which they were not responsible for) our holiday ran smoothly from start to finish. The food and hospitality was simply wonderful and we couldn't have asked for better.  I will definitely recommend your company to friends and familyMichelle, Chalet Delfina, January 2008

"Just to let you know we have had another fabulous ski holiday with Ski Amis.  Please pass on our thanks to the team who provided exemplary service and food.  I loved the ski hosting and would like to thank Ralph again for making it a memorable holiday.  I have already recommended Ski Amis to friends and know we will ski with you again.  Keith & Sandra, Chalet Christine, January 2008

"We have recently returned from a week's stay at Chalet Christine in La Tania and wish to express our appreciation of the excellent service provided by your hosts there.  The team were all very helpful, friendly and welcoming and the meals were of a very high standard.  We hope to holiday with you again in the future and would have no hesitation recommending your company to friends." Clive and Jacky, Chalet Christine, January 2008

"We have just spent a fabulous week in Chalet Miranda, Le Bettaix.  Our hosts did an excellent job, nothing was too much trouble, if they didn't know the answer to our questions, they found out!  Well done to them both!  The food, as always, with Ski Amis, was excellent.  We would also like to add what an excellent knowledgeable ski host we had - many thanks to him for making our first days skiing an unforgettable one!  We understand there were a few teething problems with this being a new chalet - just a couple of suggestions that we think would really help - bedside reading lamps, some hooks in rooms to hang coats etc up and a couple of extra lights in the lounge to read by.  However, all in all a fabulous week - with fabulous weather and snow to matchThe Whites, Chalet Miranda, January 2008

"Just got back to work today so suffering from the “boarding blues”, but I just thought I would drop you a line and let you know how thrilled Julie and I were to stay at chalet Christine last week with the rest of the party, all the staff at the Chalet made us feel really welcoming and nothing was too much of a problem, the food was fantastic and the weather was great, we could not ask of anything more, if we get the opportunity of recommending you to anybody considering visiting La Tania then we shall make sure they know how great you all are.  Many thanks for making it a great holiday."  Darren, Chalet Christine, January 2008

"Could you please pass on our thanks to all the staff at chalet Christine, La Tania - they are doing a fantastic job, food great, and Chalet well run and very friendly.  We all had a great time."  Ward, Sam, Wayne, Linda & Megan, Chalet Christine, December 2007

 

"Just thought I'd drop you a line to say how impressed we were with our Xmas holiday in Chalet Gabrielle. The chalet hosts did an excellent job & were real ambassadors for your company going the "extra mile" time after time without being asked.  Hopefully we'll be out there again with you before too long. Steve Smith, Chalet Gabrielle, December 2007

 

"Just to let you know how much we enjoyed our Christmas holiday at the Chalet Balkiss, La TaniaThe chalet was warm and comfortable and our hosts were great.  They created a friendly & relaxed atmosphere allowing us to enjoy our week.  The meals presented were excellent with a good variation  We all enjoyed it very much.Simms family, Chalet Balkiss, December 2007

 

"We enjoyed the exceptional nice care of  the chalet hosts, who were really working hard to make everybody feel comfortable and did a great job not only with Christmas dinner.  Please give them our greetings and thanks again.  Also we like to let you know that the chalet was very nice and cosy and quite practical on the other hand, so we think we made a good choice to stay there. Even the small room was no problem and the girls loved their tiny cabin.   The other guests were good company and we had a lot of fun all together and even the teenagers got along very well. So - one week flies and we are back to work now but I wanted to thank you for a perfect holiday."  Mareile, Chalet Flora, Christmas 2007

 

"Just wanted to say we had a fab week in Chalet Flora. The chalet hosts were brilliant, very enthusiastic and determined to do everything right.  The new menu was most enjoyable, only one starter didn't go down well and that was Ed's Russian salad, sorry Ed!!!  Hadn't done Christmas skiing with the kids before, they loved it so will be coming back again next year.  Thanks again for a great holiday, excellent service and fab food."  Jon, Chalet Flora, Christmas 2007

 

"Just got back from our Christmas holidays which included a week with your company at the Christine chalet in La Tania.  We would just like to say thank you for a wonderful holiday, the staff at the chalet were outstanding. As soon as we arrived we were made to feel extremely welcome and that nothing was too much trouble - the resort manager was also extremely knowledgeable about the area.  The team were all terribly professional and courteous, you would never have guessed it was the first week of the season!  Thank you  also for catering so well for us fussy vegetarians!!" Rebecca and Peter, Chalet Christine, December 2007

 

"Just wanted to drop a line to say what a great holiday we had - great skiing, great resort, wonderful chalet and most of all fantastic chalet hosts!!   Also a special thanks to our ski hosts, who made our ski hosting days very enjoyable.  Ski Amis was a company we found while surfing the net and I am so glad we found you!  We look forward to more holidays with you.  Thank you!!Todd Family, Chalet Balkiss, Christmas 2007
 

"Please thank the staff for all their hard work last week and pass on our best wishes for the New Year.  They made our stay the best ski chalet holiday I have ever had." Matthew & Jennifer, Chalet Gabrielle, December 2007

 

"We arrived home safely on Saturday and thought I would send an email thanking you and your team for such an enjoyable holiday.  After the bumpy start to the holiday and delayed flights we were met by your three drivers and immediately felt confident at their ability to deliver what had been promised.  On arrival at the chalet, the chalet hosts provided a very warm welcome. The accommodation was much better than expected .... the location couldn't have been improved ..... the atmosphere throughout the week was all about fun and enjoyment.  The hot tub was most welcome at the end of a days skiing.  Others in the party didn't think they would use it - but it turned out to be most welcome for the tired muscles and was a real 'hit'.  The food was superb ..... such good quality and varied meals ..... the chalet hosts worked tremendously hard and are a credit to your company.  Our ski host again did a first rate job guiding us around the area safely.  We only briefly met your other members of staff in the resort, but all were courteous and helpful.  You have built an excellent reputation, of which you should be very proud.  Thank you once again for everything Ian, Chalets de Bruyeres, March 2007

 

"We had a great time in Montalbert, as well as the greater La Plagne area - a wonderful ski paradise! We were particularly impressed with our accommodation.  Clean, tidy, comfortable and convenient, and particularly well looked after.  The chalet hosts looked after us really well, from our late arrival in the middle of the night (which even included a quick bowl of soup!), right up to our early morning departure after a full breakfast.  Please convey our appreciation to them, as well as to the rest of your staff who made all the arrangements: First Class, and professional.  Thank you again for the advice and arrangements - we have no doubt in recommending your company to anyone who may be interested in a quiet and comfortable ski-holidayWillem and Rene, Chalet Anniek, March 2007

 

"I wanted to write and thank you and SKI Amis for all the help you gave us.  We were not an easy group to organise and your patience, understanding and efficiency was wonderful.  We had a great time at Chalet Balkiss and your staff were perfect chalet hosts and really looked after us all well. Thanks to Ed as well for keeping the guys occupied while they waited for a delayed flight from Gatwick when we arrived.  I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Ski Amis to my friends and hopefully we will have a chance to use you again in the futureCarol, Chalet Balkiss, March 2007

 

"Back home and trying very hard to get back into the routine.  The three of us had the most wonderful holiday despite a knee ligament injury sustained on the second day by one of our party.  The whole Ski-Amis experience has left a lasting impression on the 3 of us. We've been on a few chalet holidays in the past but Ski-Amis were a class (or ten) above.  Even though we had to organise some aspects ourselves your flexibilty in meeting our needs made it feel like an all inclusive package. Everything was without fault and our Chalet staff were outstanding. Our ski host gave us an insight to the area that would have taken us 3 visits to find ourselves.  I'm quickly running out of superlatives here so I'll close by saying a B-I-G thank-you to ALL at Ski-Amis. Your Company has an ethos that many of the big boys would do well to emulate but probably never willMartyn, Chalet Christine, March 2007

 

"Just a short note to say how much we enjoyed our stay in "Flora" last week. It all went very well, and we had great skiing.  Your ski host was a great guide; very personable and helpful.  We were particularly impressed by the efficiency of all the arrangements, and your chalet staff who were willing with any request for information/advice/help, and managed to serve superb food every day. The best we had experienced.  Thanks again for everything...great chalets.Tony, Chalets de Bruyeres, March 2007

 

"I’d like to thank everyone at Ski Amis for making the arrangements for a great skiing holiday.  We stayed at a self-catering chalet in Plagne Montalbert last week.  All of the arrangements prior to the holiday went very smoothly, we took advantage of the pre-holiday hire of lift passes and equipment, the journey instructions were very clear and there was someone to meet us on arrival.  The chalet was fine and on the Thursday, your ski host did a great job guiding us over to Les Arcs.  So congratulations to you all and my thanks to everyoneGeoff, Chalets de Montalbert, March 2007

 

"From the moment we arrived, until the moment we left, your staff were friendly, helpful and delightful to have around us. As a large group, it can be quite daunting, but they soon learnt everyone's names and likes and dislikes and produced fantastic food each day. Some of our party have been on many catered chalet ski holidays before, but without exception, all of them said that this chalet and the food was the best that they have ever had.  I have worked in the travel business for 16 years, 11 overseas with teams of reps working for me, and lately lecturing in travel and tourism, and I would have happily given your staff a job working for me in any of my teams (and taken them with me to the next resort)Dympna, Chalet Isabelle, March 2007

 

"We all had a great week in Chalet Flora and were top-serviced by your chalet staff so many thanks to you all!  I’m sure that we will return to Ski Amis next year maybe going back to Les Menuires or somewhere else"  Chris, Chalets de Bruyeres, February 2007

 

"I just want to thank you for a wonderful holiday and congratulate you on your set up. If all your chalets are being looked after as well as ours was, than I would have no hesitation on recommending your company (that's after we have booked ours first so that we get to choose Tangara again!).  The staff were wonderful hosts, very professional, intelligent and hard working. They were welcoming, friendly and helpful yet not intrusive. Your services of ski hosting, equipment, passes (& lessons if I had not messed it up!) were very much welcome as they saved us a lot of time. And, of course, the two day ski hosting, when visibility was almost zero, was a godsend! Five star, please keep it up. I would never go back self catering.  The one issue remains, how you are going to compensate us for putting on so much weight?!!!Naheed - Chalet Tangara, February 2007

 

"Just wanted to say we all had a wonderful time in Chalet Isabelle last week and to thank you and your team very much for all you did for us.  Specifically I would like to thank the girls in the chalet for putting up with our strange breakfast requests and generally being absolutely brilliant.  Their food was superb and general company, friendliness, efficiency and knowledge much appreciated by us allDave - Chalet Isabelle, February 2007

 

"Just a short note to thank you for the very pleasant week we spent at Chalet Balkiss - your staff were exceptional hosts and in particular the food was excellent ... the rest of your staff we came into contact with were a credit to your organisation.  The only negative from my prospective is that the week has now spoilt me for any "budget" holiday in the future - I do not think I can survive a skiing holiday without a hot tub!!  Hope to use your company again".  David - Chalet Balkiss, January 2007

 

"A note to thank you all at Ski Amis and to let you know that we all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at La Tania; having returned to UK we all felt it particularly important to let you know just how much we all appreciated the hospitality offered to us by your Chalet Tangara hosts -  they are true stars, a credit to your company and proved to be a great couple throughout the week; nothing was too much trouble to them and they proved excellent company throughout the week. Their relaxed attitude belied a professional attitude and both made us all feel very welcome to the chalet; they fed us extremely well and ensured that the chalet was comfortable on our return from each day’s skiing – the sauna was a boon! The ski passes and ski equipment in the chalet was a treat and ensured full use of the 8 day ski passes with no time wasted drifting around the resort. Once again thank you for your company’s flexibility during our holiday planning, particularly as the numbers fluctuated at regular intervals with additions and deletions.  Congratulations once again .... "  Neal, Chalet Tangara, January 2007

 

"Have just returned home from our week’s skiing holiday & wanted to say thank you so much for sorting everything out .... we had a fantastic week, the apartment was just great and you guys did a super job organising lift passes, ski hire etc for us – it makes such a difference! Well done & will no doubt be in touch for next year!Valerie, Silenes 6 Meribel, December 2006

 

"Re our stay at Chalet Tangara in La Tania 16th Dec to 23rd - just to say a huge thanks we had a fantastic time the chalet was superb, the girls were even better and nothing appeared to be too much trouble.  We all said that we would recommend your company to anyone travelling .."  Steve, Chalet Tangara, December 2006

 

"Wanted to let you know what a lovely week we had in Montalbert last week.  We were very lucky with the snow, of course, but apart from that, we were so well cared for in our chaletThe food at all mealtimes was plentiful and delicious!  The children loved it there, too - especially croissants for breakfast, yummy cakes for afternoon tea and the opportunity to play on the X-box!  Altogether, I can't think we have ever had more relaxed ski-ing holiday.  Thanks to everyone at Ski Amis Pamela, La Vieille Maison, April 2006

 

"We all had a great holiday at La Tania and would like to pass on our special thanks to the hosts at Chalet Balkiss.  Their combination of attentiveness, humour, cooking, advice and indeed everything else really put the icing on the cake of an excellent holiday.  We will definitely be back!Ross, Chalet Balkiss, April 2006

 

".... hospitality, food and drink were 1st class ..."  Roy, Chalet Isabelle, April 2006

 

"I am writing on behalf of everyone in our group having just returned from La Tania.  We all wanted to let you know that our holiday at Chalet Christine was an enormous success due mainly to the fact that the Chalet worked so perfectly for us and that the staff there were quite simply the best we have encountered anywhere! They really are a superb team and we could not fault them on anything.  They were permanently cheerful, helpful, tolerant, considerate, fun, and just about any positive adjective you would like to add! The chalet layout worked very well for us especially being able to separate the two sitting rooms (especially as we seemed to have hundreds of children and inherited several more!) which was a godsend.  Everyone was very happy with the bedrooms once the eaves had been negotiated! There was always hot water, beds etc were comfortable, everything was kept beautifully clean.  The food was great and was enjoyed by everyone especially the cakes which disappeared at unbelievable speed.  We were lucky with the weather, and the snow was mainly excellent, so skiing was fantastic.  So, many many thanks for all your help in setting things up for us, and your patience in dealing with my frequent queries and questions!Polly, Chalet Christine, April 2006

 

"Just wanted to drop you a line to say how much we enjoyed our holiday at Chalet Anniek. The chalet is very comfortable and the staff were great hosts. The food was superb and Lorraine (who has a serious nut allergy) felt completely relaxed about all her meals which she has never been able to do before in hotels for example.Andrew and Lorraine, Chalet Anniek, March 2006

 

"We would like to thank Ski Amis for our very enjoyable holiday in Montalbert, every aspect of the whole experience from booking, one cancellation, and one tunnel change of booking, and how well we were looked after at the chalet was excellent and one we would certainly consider repeatingPam, La Vieille Maison, March 2006

 

"Just a line to thank you all at skiamis for a great holiday in Montalbert in Chalet Anniek. Having been on a great many ski holidays including catered chalets this certainly ranked as one of the bestPeter, Chalet Anniek, March 2006

 

"We have just had a week in Chalet Balkiss.  Everything was perfect : the food, the staff, the Chalet, the other 6 guests from Liverpool, the Snow and the sunshine.  Out of about 15 previous ski holidays, this was the best.  It was a fantastic week, so I would like to say a very big thank youMike and Geraldine, Chalet Balkiss, March 2006

 

"Thanks  for a great holiday, again, at Montalbert. Your whole set-up is first class and it really sunk in just how good you are when I spoke to others on holiday who battle with ski passes and queues at ski shops etcMax, La Vieille Maison, March 2006

 

"My wife, two of our friends and I have recently returned from an excellent week in La Tania where we stayed in Chalet Balkiss.  We would just like to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay, the staff made us feel very welcome, they were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble and they were both a lot of fun ....  The service was brilliant all round, from the moment we were collected at Geneva Airport to the moment we were dropped back there, we will return"  Simon and Fiona, Chalet Balkiss, March 2006

 

"would just like to say thank you for a wonderful week spent in Chalet Issabelle, Valmorel.  The staff were wonderful hosts.  Every meal was fabulous!"  - White family, Chalet Isabelle, February 2006

We have used a number of chalet companies in the past and yours has by far been the best.  Your attention to your guests needs and requests was second to none  ......  Your chalet staff were fantastic both with the older guests like ourselves and with our teenagers, nothing was too much trouble .... I have already started to recommend your company to other skiing friends. We will definitely be booking with Ski Amis in the future"  -  Eugene, Chalet Christine, February 2006

Chalet is comfy and warm .. "  Ian, Chalet Christine, February 2006

 

"Just to say that we had a fabulous week at Chalet Balkiss last week - the staff were absolutely superb and faultless.  They couldn't have been more helpful, pleasant and easy to get on with and the food was just delicious.  Everything worked like clockwork, we were very impressed (particularly with the ski hire set up) and the chalet is just great!  Thank you so much to you and the team - the only problem is that we're now very sad that it's all over"  - Linda, Chalet Balkiss, February 2006

"We have stayed in countless chalets over the years but have never come across staff as helpful and friendly as yours.  Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them and it was really appreciated.  We also really liked the fact that on day off, the resort manager came in to prepare breakfast (and make us afternoon tea in the afternoon). I have never stayed in a chalet where we still got looked after on the staff’’s day offMy only complaint was that the food was so good that I can’t fit into my clothes!"  -  Susan, Chalet Balkiss, February 2006

We really could not fault your company and cannot wait to return"  Gary, April 2005

 

"I thought I'd better pen a quick E-mail to say what a wonderful week we had in Chalet Balkiss. Our chalet hosts looked after us superbly & even put up with our requests & stupid questions!  We were reminiscing last night & it was definitely the best weeks ski holiday we have ever hadSandy, March 2005

 

“We had a great holiday and were very happy with the chalet, the food and our chalet staff who were unfailingly accommodating and helpful” Gill, April 2004

 

“We had a fantastic time - special thanks must go for the personal attention offered by the chalet staff - being accompanied to ski hire, ski school made things very stress-free.  The food was excellent and having the children's meals at different times worked a treat.  I can't commend Ski Amis enough - the trip, from the outset, was efficient and friendly.  Huge thanks.  Thanks also to you, Christine, for the fantastic service and friendly professionalism.” Kate, March 2004

 

“It is so nice (and rare) to go on a trip when all of the arrangements go so flawlessly to plan!” Tim, March 2004

 

“First of all just want to say what a fantastic time we had in Chalet Balkiss – the chalet staff looked after us extremely well, and of course the great snow and blue skies certainly helped.  Thanks again for everything, your flexibility in dealing with our awkward requests was really appreciated!” Mel and Mark, January 2004

 

“Just a quick note to thank you and all the team at Chalet Christine for an excellent holiday.  I could not have been luckier with the weather and snow and the team at the Chalet made it a very special holiday.  See you next year!” Peter, January 2004

 

“Christine, thanks for the best skiing holiday we have ever had. Could you please also thank the chalet staff for looking after us and making the holiday very enjoyable” Keith, New Year 2003

 

“We liked your new chalet and loved the central location in Montalbert.  The couple who were cooking and running the chalet were industriously hospitable to the extent that you would think that it was their business!  The food was very enjoyable and my wife (our token vegetarian) was once more grateful for the only decent vegetarian food in the Alps.” Gary, New Year 2003

 

 “Just a note to say thank you for a wonderful family ski trip at the Chalets de Montalbert. The skiing was great and the chalet lovely - but I will always remember going out on the slope at night and sledding our hearts out - apologies to the slope grooming guys!” Kathleen – New Year 2003

 

“Thanks so much for a great time in Montalbert, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was a pleasure to be with a company so professional in its approach but that has not forgotten the importance of the human touch! Your staff managed to be warm and efficient, a rare combination in the travel business. We would happily recommend your services and would not hesitate to use Ski Amis again.” Sharon – Christmas 2003
