Although we have worked in the industry for a number of years and have been fortunate enough to visit a lot of resorts, we still like to take advice from people regarding what they enjoyed in particular resorts. We are always looking to try new resorts and ski areas and we take a lot of advice from our peers and customers alike. People want activities to enjoy after their day on the piste have come to an end.

And you might fancy trying out that new restaurant in town but the ski chalet staff have been preparing’ since noon. Fortunately things are changing and it’s now possible to find (though still hard) a more freestyle attitude to dinners and dinner times. Above all, be nice to the staff. Take out things they can’t get in the Alps as little presents/tips – the staff will then go out of their way to be extra nice. Why tip at the end? And because of the way the budgets work, it’s good to get the hosts on side.

We’ll start with Swiss ski resorts that come with chocolate-box appeal, and chalets in popular villages such as Zermatt and Verbier, just like AlpenHouse, go a long way to making those picture-perfect ski holiday dreams a reality. Prices in Switzerland might be higher than anywhere else in Europe, but along with the weighty price tags come some of the world’s most luxurious lodgings. Check out our best-in-class chalet in Switzerland to see what we mean.

We offer accommodations at private mountain homes, as well as resort condos. Ski-in/ski-out access, private hot tubs, scenic views, gas fireplaces and ski storage are just some of the available amenities you’ll find at the resorts near our chalet. So, start searching for your ski vacations now, and get ready to hit the slopes!

If you absolutely love getting out into nature, a vacation in the mountains is for you. Whether it’s the beach or the forest, there’s just something about it that renews a passion for life, revitalizes, and restores you inner moves. That being said, there’s something incredibly soul sucking about not doing it nearly enough and being cooped up in a concrete jungle. Between traffic, light pollution, too many people, and work, it’s become abundantly clear that sometimes, you should do it. Leave your comfortable place.
