As well as this, the tourist centre, shops and restaurants of the resort are easily accessible and can be found within 10 metres of the property.

There is no better place to come back to after a long day spent enjoying the snowy mountainous scenery and crisp, Alpine air than these warm and cosy, classically designed cottages.

Every apartment in the Résidence has been built in the traditional Savoyard style with exposed wood interiors and provides unbeatable views of Mont Blanc. Despite its rustic appearance, Résidence Les Arolles is tailored to suit modern tourists and has an array of first rate facilities on offer. This includes a heated indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room and a well-equipped gym. Guests can also make use of the kitchens in the apartments, which come with an electric hob, fridge-freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and a coffee machine.

All of the apartments at Résidence Les Arolles are self-catered, with modern kitchens, for guests who like to cook their own meals. It is easy to keep the cupboards fully stocked throughout your stay, as the resort’s shops are just 10 metres from the apartments. Alternatively, there is a selection of restaurants to choose from in the Les Arcs resort. These eateries serve a range of food, from classic French cuisine to international options such as pasta and pizza and there is also an on-site pub and a snack bar at the Résidence for light lunches between activities.

Les Arcs is stationed at 1800 metres, in Savoie France, in the Tarentaise Valley. Located in Bourg Saint Maurice, Résidence les Arolles is situated in the small hamlet of Les Gerets, close to the borders with Switzerland and Italy. The resort of Les Arcs itself is made up of four modern and purpose built resorts: Arc 1600, Arc 1800, Arc 1950 and Arc 2000 and is a part of Paradiski, which is one of the largest ski domains in the world.

Les Arcs is a resort that is well suited to both beginners and seasoned skiers due to its varied ski altitudes which range from 1200 to 3226 metres. The area has 108 pistes for visitors to enjoy and there is a handy ski rental and sportswear shop in the area as well as a ski school which caters to both children and grown ups. Les Arcs is part of the larger ski area, Paradiski, which is well known for offering excellent ski experiences and sparkling white scenery. Covering an extensive area of 425 km and with 236 pistes on offer, Paradiski is one of the most impressive ski areas in the French Alps. The area is home to two snow parks, five border crosses and two half pipes, with at least 70% of the region situated above 2000 metres, offering excellent conditions throughout most of the winter season.

Les Arcs doesn’t just offer skiing. Here you will also find an exciting selection of winter activities for the entire family to enjoy. To really get the best possible view of the idyllic, mountainous scenery, guests can arrange helicopter sightseeing tours which provide exhilarating, bird’s eye views of the Alps mountains for miles around.

Snow-shoeing offers a great way to explore the area on foot and involves discovering the forests and mountains by hiking and tracking animal prints. This exciting activity can be arranged in groups or with a private tutor. For something more low key, anyone travelling with children will enjoy the snow park and the rodeo park, which can be found at the resort.
