Les Arcs is a purpose-built ski area with over 100 ski lifts and many miles of pistes designed for everyone from beginners to black run experts. Within the area are four resorts - Arc 1600, Arc 1800, Arc 1950 and Arc 2000 as well as a few more traditional villages. Les Arcs is connected to its neighbour La Plagne by the double-decker Vanoise Express Gondola which operates right around the year. From Les Arcs accommodation such as family-sized apartments and rustic holiday cottages, you can ski straight out onto the slopes.
We came for one week for our honeymoon and just wanted to get away from everything. Beautiful gardens and totally enclosed and private. Lots of outdoor space for dining and for spending time by the pool during the day. You do need a car to get anywhere but only 30 minutes to St. Maxime where you can also get the water taxi to St. Tropez. We brought our dog and there is a vets just down the road who were able to get her documents sorted for travelling back to the UK.
