Chalet Namika

We are delighted to feature this fabulous chalet in Alpe D'Huez which is of a very high standard. We recommend booking early because this 4* Chalet Namika is always in high demand.

It has a fantastic location right on the slopes amongst a cluster of other chalets in a new development. You jump on your skis right outside the door and ski 250m down a green run to the gondola lift and ski school. At the end of the day you can ski right back to the door. In the evening the centre of Alpe d'Huez is 20-25 mins walk but there are a couple of bars and a scattering of shops only 5-10mins away. Alternatively you can jump on the free ski bus which stops close to the chalet.

The facilities are excellent. The spacious sun terrace has a hot tub and balcony with fantastic views over the village and slopes. It catches the sun virtually all day long so you won't have a problem catching some sun at any point throughout the day.

Inside, the chalet is nicely decorated and has a spacious lounge area with large, comfortable sofas, cable TV and an open fireplace. Along the lounge is the open plan dining area. Downstairs there is a steam room to revitalise before dinner.

Another excellent facility is the 'Cine Snug' - an additional mini cinema room. It is fully insulated and heated and soundproofed. There are 2 comfortable sofas, 2 large bean bags and 8 large colourful cushions but the piece de resistance must surely be the new 50 inch high-definition plasma TV with an all round sound cinema system. There is a new HD DVD player and the whole system is linked to Sky TV. This is a great room for people to watch films/sports etc without disturbing those people who wish to relax in the lounge! It's a great place chill out in after a hard day on the slopes.

All bedrooms are well-furnished and come with private facilities.

Lower ground floor room 7 - Twin with private facilities.
1st floor rooms 1 and 2 - Twins with private facilities.
2nd floor rooms 3 and 4 - Twins with private facilities.

Chalet Board
We employ excellent hosts and housekeepers who take care of your creature comforts and are very much a part of the social scene during your holiday. They know the skiing and will have lots of local information for you. For breakfast, there is a substantial buffet with ham, salami, cheese and cereals in addition to the usual bread and preserves. When you come back from skiing there's always cakes and coffee or tea, and at dinner, three excellent courses with free wine.

Cook's Night Off
On one day of the week, the host has a day off so you need to buy dinner. We always plan this as part of your après ski entertainment and will book a high value fun-filled evening in a local restaurant if you wish.
