A fun and memorable holiday
I had a great holiday, the skiing was good and a good time was had by all. The only downside was the signposting at Les Arcs; not as good as La Plagne, but this wasn't that big of a deal if you planned your route carefully. The "apres ski" for young people isn't as good as other countries but we had a big enough of a group for it to make no difference. I'll definitely be heading back to France again for the skiing. All in all I'd recommend the resort.

The holiday went well, there was enough snow fortunately. Staff at the accommodation reception were very helpful. The room was clean, small but good value.

An excellent resort to go to, pre-booking lift pass and equipment hire didn't make much difference really. Nightlife was great, lots of good restaurants and bars with live music. Ski area excellent as was snowcover. Accommodation central.
