Budget Ski Holidays 2024-2025

A budget-friendly way to enjoy a ski holiday in the company of like-minded solo skiers. Spend time with your fellow guests, hit the slopes solo or with a group, and the best part is, there's no single supplement! Enjoy all that Les Portes du Soleil has to offer without breaking the bank.

Whether you're travelling alone or with a small group, you have come to the right place. Welcome to The Ski Gathering — a social event for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. Meet new people with similar interests on a skiing trip. Our ski holidays are suitable for both absolute novices and regular red run cruisers.

A simplified approach to chalet holidays

On our Budget Ski Holidays, we do things the simple way, which is what helps make these holidays such good value.

For example, you'll enjoy a continental breakfast in the morning, a two-course evening meal, and skip the usual afternoon tea for a well deserved après-ski.

We also select chalets that offer everything you need for a great holiday but without the frills to really bring you value. Please do note if you've been to some of our other chalets before that our budget ski holidays do offer a simpler experience that some of our more luxurious offerings.

A typical day on our Budget Ski Holiday

No single supplement. What does that mean?

The single-occupancy supplement is generally the biggest headache for individual skiers travelling alone. Usually, solos have to pay a premium for the empty bed, making ski holidays unaffordable for most singles and solo skiers. With The Ski Gathering, you'll be sharing a room so there is no single supplement. Sharing a triple or quad room, you pay slightly less than those sharing a twin.

What a week !!!!Well !! Where do I start? I have just returned from a week in Les Gets with the Ski Gathering. It was bloody excellent from start to finish. Belinda was a meticulous and fantastic organiser and also a fabulous host. The chalet was superb and includes a small pool, sauna and hot tub for pampers apres ski. Food in the chalet was a brilliantly high standard. And all the chalet girls and chefs were excellent. I was made to feel so welcome. Last word on my chalet mates: what a smashing group we were in. Sociable, caring, some great skiers and some wonderful wits. What a week !!!!

Five stars is not enoughWhere do I begin? Despite all the mishaps, misadventures, and badly injuring my right knee, this was the best experience I have had skiing in years. I cannot stress enough how brilliant Belinda and the team of ladies at Les Gets were, from arrival to departure. Their organisation and support were invaluable. If they said something was worth doing or recommended a place to go, they were invariably right. The support they provided to ensure you have a great trip was absolutely first-class. I should know—I had to call upon their help more than most, whether it was needing rescuing from the medical centre or somehow swapping skis with another unfortunate person. This was definitely the best trip I have been on in years—great value in a great atmosphere. Good accommodation and great food, even for a very fussy eater like myself. Afternoon tea and cakes were fabulous—only, there was never enough cake for us gannets! The service was friendly and superb throughout my stay, and I cannot praise it enough. Five stars is not enough. If I am ever able to go skiing again, I will definitely go with The Ski Gathering. Thank you for a brilliant holiday. As I sit here waiting for the fracture clinic to call back with an appointment date, I can only look back with pleasure on my trip to Les Gets and my time with The Ski Gathering—and the memories I have. If you are wanting to go solo skiing, this is definitely the way to go. The team at The Ski Gathering in Les Gets are brilliant!

I had the best time10 stars out of 5!!!! All I can say is wow, wonderful resort, wonderful chalet, wonderful food, wonderful people. I had the best time. I was apprehensive about sharing a chalet and in fact a room with complete strangers, but I loved every second of it. Belinda really is the icing on the cake, I believe there may actually be at least 4 of her!!! She is so helpful, so organised, so knowledgeable and so invested in making your stay the best possible. Not a package holiday, but everything except my flight was organised for me. Les Suites de l'Alpe is right next to a chair lift and free bus route to other parts of the ski area. Food was delicious, girls in chalet so attentive and facilities spot on. I will be back!!!!

More than exceeded expectationsAwesome ski week! Have had many ski trips in the past but never solo to a chalet, initially unsure what to expect but more than exceeded expectations. Whole group friendly fun and ski/boarded together everyday all over the resort. Chalet hosts really welcoming to cosy modern and well catered meals. Belinda what an unbelievable force of skiing nature! Nothing too much to organsise or help with to make the best holiday experience for all, an absolute pleasure to ski with! Cannot more highly recommend ski gathering.

This is an absolute godsendI've just finished my second ski season in a row in Les Gets with the Ski Gathering, and it's hard to look past the extensive ski areas in the Portes du Soleil combined with the brilliant chalet when thinking about the next season as well. The hosts keep the chalet clean and well maintained, and help organise things like equipment hire and transfers. The food is plentiful and tasty (breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner), with dinner being a pleasant mix of restaurant and family-style dishes. The hosts are friendly and approachable. The spa, whilst small, is a welcome addition to the experience. All of this contributes to making the experience akin to what you might expect from a trip with group of friends. The difference is that you start the week as complete strangers, but on both occasions I've found that by the end of the week everyone is chatting, joking and laughing (and often drinking) as though we've known each other for much, much longer. As a solo traveller, this is an absolute godsend. What might otherwise turn a holiday into a stressful mess of review-searching and bookings before it even begins, becomes an easy, enjoyable experience where you can focus on the skiing, socialisation and just having a good time. I can't praise it enough!

Roll on next year!I had a fabulous week with Belinda and the team in Les Gets and not having joined a solos ski group before, this was a great experience. I hadn’t skied properly for over 6 years and whilst I knew the wider area, Les Gets was new to me. The chalet was great and the team there absolutely wonderful. Great food, great company from my fellow travellers and skiers and a definite revisit next year! Belinda goes out of her way to make sure you have the best experience you can from your holiday and nothing is too much trouble - so much hard work and kindness which was truly appreciated, thank you!. Hannah, Amy and Emma in the chalet are lovely, work incredibly hard and, again, nothing is too much trouble. We had a mixed bag of weather but great snow and such a huge area to ski - roll on next year !! Thanks again everyone! x

Will be back!!I had the most amazing time in Les Gets. Special thanks to Amy, Hannah and Emma for their excellent hosting skills. each meal was a culinary delight, and the whole chalet was kept spotless and sparkling. I recommend the location 5 stars for facilities available, staff expertise and friendliness and standard of accommodation. Belinda was warm, friendly, amusing and incredibly knowledgeable about all things Les Gets and Porte de Soleil and happy to engage constantly with the group. All 4 of you made my ski trip very enjoyable. Will be back!!

Do this; you won't regret itAbsolutely tremendous experience. No notes. I had done catered chalets in France before, so I knew to expect a great breakfast, tasty afternoon tea and a good dinner, but this was next-level in unexpected ways. First, the lovely team that looked after us, so kind and eager to accommodate, feeding and tidying up and smiling throughout. Second, the ski group -- I don't know how The Ski Gathering does it, but inviting 'social solo skiers over 50' turned out a delightful group - warm and fun and full of kindness and interest in each other. New friends! Finally, our resort manager, Belinda, who gave amazing advice on pistes and lifts, teased and cajoled and helped us, and joined for some very special days on the mountain from first tracks to the final cheeky vin chaud at day's end. Do this; you won't regret it.

It hugely exceeded my expectationsJust back from a fantastic week with Ski Gathering. I was keen to get on the hills but with no mates available, I thought I'd take a chance and I'm very glad I did. Thinking 'at least it's bed & board near the slopes' it hugely exceeded my expectations with genuinely good food and lovely chalet hosts, and a group of sociable fellow skiers and boarders enjoying life on and off the hill. Special mention for resort manager and human dynamo Belinda for making everything run smoothly with tact and humour. I'd have no hesitation in booking again.

I'll be booking againSpent a splendid week at Chalet Negritelles, with a tremendous group of people. The chalets were comfortable, the food was good and the company excellent--and Les Gets is a most attractive ski area, with surprisingly good snow for its altitude. We were looked after most attentively by the delightful Lana, who made sure everything in the chalet ran smoothly, as well as being helpful, fun and entertaining. Full marks too for Belinda, who organised everything else for us with efficiency and a great sense of humour. Thanks! I expect I'll be booking again with The Ski Gathering in future.

Apres-ski on the front de neige - Les Gets

What is Après-Ski

Beside being a popular and lively bar on the Front de Neige in Les Gets, après-ski is a concept on its own! Literally the French term for "after skiing", this is the time to celebrate a day on the slopes after your last run. Hit the bars as soon as the lifts stop, or anytime after lunch really, the choice is yours!

Skiing in March or April?

Skiing in March, you'll find fewer families around, and less of those snaking trails of beginners on the slopes. Skiing in April, you'll experience the party-vibe that spring brings to the resort's centre (when après-ski tends to start earlier). It's warm, it's sunny, and it's very relaxed. Plus, we often get a big dump of snow in late March, and we've had some of our best skiing then! So don't forget your sunscreen when you hit the slopes, head for a walk, or spend a long lazy lunch on the sun-bathed terrace of a mountain restaurant!
