A few years back, good quality French ski apartments ideal for families at half-term were in relatively short supply and clients booked super-early to ensure they had the pick of the best available properties. The half-term dates, quite rightly, are still in high demand with lots snapped up by early bookers but a huge number of new residences (apartment buildings to you and I) have sprung up all over the French Alps to cater for a growing demand for quality self-catered ski accommodation for the family market.

These ski apartments are a far cry from the average product offered in France a decade ago. Many now offer stylish public spaces with open fires and free Wi-Fi, exceptional pools, hot tubs and spacious apartments with full kitchens, satellite TV and balconies. Our top recommendations for these high quality accommodations are Residence L'Oree Des Cimes in the pretty resort of Peisey-Vallandry, slopeside Residence Les Hauts Boisin the family-friendly resort of La Plagne.
L'Oree des Cimes' location and high quality of recreation facilities make it an ideal choice for families
This growth in the number of available properties has meant more availability meaning lots of last-minute space even for key dates like half-term. As I write this on the 23rd of January, a quick search on Powderbeds.com for 7 nights on the 11th of February (UK half-term) brings back a choice of 95 available properties, many with a multiple choice of apartment types. If you are just looking to get away for a few days there is also a handful of accommodations offering ski weekends at very reasonable prices.
Powderbeds have something to suit every budget with prices starting at £146 per apartment per night; from a studio apartment at the one-star Residence Les 2 Alpes in Les Deux Alpes to a suite in the superb four-star Les Suites du Nevada in high-altitude Tignes – plus everything in between!
At the other end of the scale from Les Suites du Nevada, Residence Les 2 Alpes offers budget friendly self-catered accommodation in the centre of the resort.
With the huge growth in low-cost airlines from London and regional airports plus some great routes and timings with Swiss Airlines and British Airways you might be surprised at how much availability is left, even this close in. If you’d prefer to take the car you’ve got Eurotunnel or a ferry option to get you to the continent.
Winter 2012 has brought the best early snow in the French Alps for a generation. With so much great value half-term ski accommodation still available, it’s the perfect time to head out there to enjoy it.
