Ski In Ski Out

if you are looking to book a great New Year skiing holiday, could it get any better than a true ski in ski out chalet? A true ski in ski out chalet in my opinion is one that is set next to the ski slope and not one where you have to ski through gardens, jump of hedges, and cross icy roads where your skis get shredded by the salty gravel!

As such you'll ski in ski out accommodation will enable you to put on your skis at the door, join the piste, and enjoy the New Year ski holiday without having to walk down slippery paths or get on uncomfortable buses, skiing back at the end of the day, right to the door.

Two companies stick out as great ski in ski out operators in terms of meeting the definition, the first is Ski In Ski Out who only provide slope side properties, and the second is Chamonix Exclusive who have an outstanding luxury catered chalet right on the piste.

Val d'Isere

If you are looking for a great New Year skiing holiday, Val d'Isere might be the perfect resort to visit. Situated at 1850m, it has a great snow record with its slopes typically open as early as the third week of November, and sometimes sooner. Being Val d'Isere, it is also one of the most hip, trendy, and fun places to be to ski and celebrate New Year Eve.

However, being one of the best ski resorts in the world, already many of the best luxury catered chalets in Val d'Isere have been booked for the New Year ski week so now is the time to make the booking! So if you want a great chalet New Year in Val d'Isere, why not take a look at one of our recommended links for possible options.

Ski New Years Eve

For those of you who haven't yet discovered skiing New Year, let me try and enlighten you on what you are missing. Firstly you have a great excuse in respect of why you can't make Aunt Betty's New Year's Eve Soiree, no cheap sherry or dreadful punch to suffer, but instead, wake up in the morning, ski from your luxury catered chalet, have a lazy lunch and a vin chaud, before skiing back to your luxury catered chalet, a relaxing dip in the hot tub,  before freshening up for a great catered dinner prepared by a professional chef. And if you book a true luxury ski chalet, a champagne dinner at that!

Then its off in to town to join the thousands of skiers heading out to celebrate New Years Eve after a great ski day!

Skiing New Year

You finished the the turkey, all the Christmas pudding, so do you now spend the next week, your vacation time, trawling the January Sales buying what people didn't want before Christmas, or do you jump on the next flight and get in some great skiing over the New Year? I guess as a male the choice is a simple one, as it would be for my wife, forget the sales, here's a chance to get some fresh air, sunshine, powder, and ski New Years Eve!

I for one find this one of the best times to ski, Christmas is out of the way, the family get together all complete, and now its 'me time', and in our case this means our family of four, and a chance to blast around the mountains and enjoy some early skiing.

Skiing New Year will of course be busy, but if you ski New Year in the high resorts such as Chamonix,  Verbier, the Three Valleys (Courchevel, Meribel, and Val Thorens), or Espace d'Killy (Tignes and Val d'Isere), then you have the extensive networks to ensure the slopes aren't too crowded as they can be in lower resorts that become more congested as skiers go higher to get the best snow.

So get in early and get the best New Year chalets before the people in the know get there first!
