"Sunshine Chalet" The Luxury Kimberley Catered Chalet

Located in the Portes du Soliel ski area Morzine is a traditional alpine village giving excellent links to both Avoriaz and Les Gets. Morzine is very popular with British skiers many of whom choose to stay in catered chalets rather than hotels or apartments. However the village is spread out and some chalets can be quite a long way from the nearest lift or piste.

There are over 300 catered ski chalets in Morzine, Les Gets and Avoriaz, ranging from cheap and cheerful chalets to  top end  luxury chalets. To help you and make your search easier we have put together a comprehensive list of Chalets in the Morzine area. This should enable you to compare what's on offer from each chalet

Most of the chalets on this website are  Morzine Ski Chalets although you will also find chalets in nearby Les Gets, Avoriaz and St Jean D'Alps  which are clearly specified in the description. If you own a chalet in Morzine or one of the nearby resorts you may list it free of charge on Morzine-Ski-Chalets.com.

Morzine lies in the heart of the massive Portes du Soleil ski region of the French Savoie Alps, half way between Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc.  Avoriaz and Les Gets are the nearest linked resorts with Avoriaz set high above Morzine, at 1800m. During a seven-day holiday, it is possible to ski in a different area on every day. In the winter, the Portes du Soleil area links together up to 14 resorts spanning across two countries, France and Switzerland. There is enough variety across the skiing domain to entertain both strong skiers and snowboarders during the week. Runs descending from Pointe de Nyon, and Chamossiere are challenging and the black runs from Mont Chéry are not for the faint hearted!
Morzine has something for everyone; it is especially a true favourite for mixed ability groups and families. It is the closest of the major alpine ski resorts to Geneva airport with a transfer time of one and a half hours.

The original ski area is accessed from Morzine by the Pleney lift station. The ski area is a large but relatively gentle area with many easy greens, blues and reds plus a couple of blacks on the Nyon side. Once you have explored the three major areas of Pleney, Nyon and Les Chavannes you can try out the runs on the other side of Les Gets on Mont Chery.

Morzine itself is a  typical old alpine town with a bustling town centre, which has retained much of its character, charm and strong French flavour with excellent facilities for après ski. The town offers a decent selection of shops and restaurants with a good choice of non-skiing activities.

Les Gets which is about 10 km by road from Morzine is a typical Savoyard village. The village is small and pretty and offers good access to its own varied slopes and the main Portes du Soleil ski area. The centre of the village is partly car-free and has plenty of attractive shops and restaurants.

Avoriaz at1800m is perched above Morzine in a dramatic position on a rock face. It is a purpose built,
traffic free resort with excellent access to the main slopes.
Most accommodation is right on the slopes.
