A chilled out, social ski holiday

Everyone loves skiing. But there is so much more to a ski holiday than just the adrenaline rush. Good food, good company, breath-taking views, and fine French wine. Welcome to a more relaxed and social ski holiday. Be on the first lift each morning if you want to, or enjoy a slightly later breakfast. Ski until the lifts close at night, or head back for afternoon tea and the hot tub. After all, it's a holiday, not a competition.

Social skiing

Ski with people who want to enjoy the mountain together, not just see who's quickest to the bottom.

1hr transfer

Barely an hour from Geneva airport. An easy, chilled-out journey up to Les Gets ski resort.

Ski pass ready

Your lift pass will be waiting for you at the chalet. Zero hassle, zero stress.

200m from lift

The Perrières chairlift is right across the road. Because nobody likes walking in ski boots.

Spa facilities

Outdoor hot tub, sauna, 6x3m swimming pool. Perfect for a lazy afternoon's pampering.

Prosecco

Add some sparkle to your afternoon tea. Bottles of chilled prosecco and tasty treats await your return.

Lazy breakfast

A slightly longer breakfast service for those who want to take their time in the morning.

Bar nearby

The nearest bar is just 70m from the chalet door. Easy bus ride to the main aprés ski.

A ski holiday for people who love skiing, but who also love good company, good times and long lazy lunches against stunning mountain backdrops.

Who comes on our relaxed pace ski holidays?

Explore widely. Or stay close to home.

This is the largest ski area in Europe. So you can explore far and wide if you want to, even skiing into Switzerland. But the local skiing is just as good. Opposite the chalet, the high-speed Perrières ski lift delivers you right to the top of the famous Les Gets "Bowl". This is perfect for groups with mixed abilities. Head off in different directions, and keep meeting back up every few runs to choose your next coffee stop. There are plenty of them to choose from.

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's included or not included?

The prices shown are per person, except where it is explicitly stated otherwise. Due to the variety of holiday types we run, individual dates may have slight variations in what's included. To find exactly what's included in your holiday, please see the what's included section of your preferred date in the prices table. Please note: flights are not included in any of our holidays.

A 'concierge service' is included in the cost of your holiday, so please do let us know what you need, and we will take care of it for you. For example, we can arrange your lift pass, ski hire, ski lessons and airport transfers. We do not charge for this service - you will always pay the same or less than you would by booking direct.

Would highly recommendJust returned from one of the under 35s Budget weeks with The Ski Gathering in Les Gets. The team can organise everything for you from ski hire to transfers and it could not have been a more hassle-free trip. All of us were solo skiers so great to have a like-minded bunch to ski and apres with. The charismatic Belinda goes out of her way to arrange anything you need and is great fun. Our chalet host Lana was also very friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend The Ski Gathering for a solo skier looking for an organised chalet holiday and good company.

Everything was exceptionalThis was my second visit to Les Suites de l'Alpe and the Ski Gathering. This time I spent Christmas and everything was exceptional. Amazing food, charming Chalet hosts, clean rooms. They are fantastic about allergies and I felt so taken care of. Amy, Allanah, Eva, Hannah, Lana and Emma were all fantastic. It was so lovely to see Emma back again who took such good care of us last time. She makes a smashing omelet and scrambled egg! Belinda deserves her own review because she is AMAZING. The level of service and fun she brings to the holiday I have not experienced with any other company.

Fabulous holidaySimply fabulous holiday with Ski Gathering a couple of weeks ago. Jean-Marc and his staff couldn't do enough to help and were super friendly in reception, the restaurant and the bar. A mini bus to take us to the different areas too! And what a bonus a swimming pool - thanks so much - I couldn't have asked for a better trip.

Clean, spacious and warmHotel de Bois may not be right by the slopes but Jean-Marc's free shuttle drop-off and collection makes it as if it is. The food is way above standard hotel fare and rightly has non-residents coming in to eat there. The rooms are clean, spacious and warm. Came in a group with The Ski gathering as a solo skier, this was the third year running, which should tell you how happy I am with the whole package they offer!

Beautiful town and viewsWe stayed in Les Suite D'Alpe at the end of the season and managed to get in plenty of skiing! The chalet was comfy and the staff did an amazing job with the food and banter. This chalet was a little out of town and the lower slope was closed, but we were helped with transport to the wider ski area whenever we wanted. Beautiful town and views. We will be back in summer. Thanks in particular to Belinda, Emma, Georgia and Charlotte xx

Brilliant valuePhenomenal ! Rooms: Room was comfortable, clean and always warm. Accommodation more than adequate and hosts were knowledgable, friendly and could not do enough for you. Will visit again asap! Nearby activities: Ski lift accessible close by, beginner friendly slopes within close reach and routes to wider Portes du Soleil area possible although snow dependent. Alpine roller coaster and zip line for the adrenaline junkie nearby as well as an ice rink and merry go round for kids out front. Lots of shops and one of the finest spas I've ever visited within 10 mins walk. Divine choice of location. Food & drinks: Very impressed by the quality and preparation of home cooked food ! If you're used to good food you'll be well served here. Restaurant quality cuisine in a cosy group dining setting at the chalet. Brilliant value. All inclusive beer and wine.

just do it!Fun! Undeniably one of the best ski vacations for me. Coming to Les Gets was a hike for me, but well worth it. Kind Belinda was a joy! While the snow was a little iffy, we made the best of it. If you are thinking of vacationing in Les Gets, just do it! Thanks for a great time! If you know, you know! In all seriousness, Belinda and the staff at the Les Suites de l'Alpe were superb! Emma, Jed, Georgia and Ava thank you so much for all of your hard work! Thank you, Belinda for organizing and keeping us all in line!

Definitely recommended for solo skiersMarch 2023: In past years we have filled a chalet with friends, but since our last trip in 2020 nothing has been organised, so at the very last minute myself and a couple of friends decided to try The Ski Gathering. It was a great holiday! In many ways it was more fun being with a bunch of random people of different ages, from different countries and backgrounds. Everyone got on well, due to Belinda's exceptional people skills, and, I guess, because people who are up for this sort of holiday are by nature open to meeting new people and are easy to get along with. We had a lot of laughs and some interesting conversations, which to my mind is what a holiday is all about. We kept 'bumping into' Belinda on the slopes and she would show us all the best places to go. She even hired a minibus to take us to different parts of the mountains (the snow was a bit thin when we went). Belinda loves skiing and loves people. She worked really hard to make sure everyone had a good time. Daisy and Grace, the chalet staff, looked after us very well, and we were all super impressed with the food. Would I go again? Absolutely yes! March 2024: I did go again! This time in a larger chalet for 18 and without bringing any friends with me. Great experience! Went for the official ski guiding option which was expensive but the tips from the guides added value. Definitely recommended for solo skiers who want to be sociable.

I'll do this again for sureMar 24: 2nd review as I went again to the same place 2 weeks ago. That must say something about what I thought of it. The place was as before - this time I was in a triple room which i found better than the double I had last time. Emma, Jed, Georgia and Ava looked after the chalet and the meals and along with the central kitchen team did a great job of feeding everyone and making 18 strangers feel really welcome. Everyone got on - not all the same ski levels and of course you engage with some more people than others, but lots of good times and laughs. And the there's Belinda. As well as being an amazing ski guide and the Director of banter, she organsied us when we needed it and made the whole experience a lot of fun. Therapy is going fine btw Belinda :) When we arrived on Sunday the snow was poor and there looked to be more brown than white. But Belinda found plenty of skiing for us. I know a number of peopel have booked to go again in '25 (including me) Jan '24: First time for me doing a solo ski holiday and sharing a room with a stranger. I was in an over 50's week and instantly met 17 people who wanted to ski and socialise. By half way through the week I'd learned all the names There were mixed ski abilities but there was always a group of friendly people to ski with. Belinda organised us when needed, gave us plenty of info and acted as an unofficial ski guide early on in the week, which was great. I was in a twin room which was fairly cramped. Very limited storage. The chalet is modern and warm with good facilities. Ski lockers right there and many people made use of the jacuzzi, sauna and pool daily. Nearest ski lift is max 200m and others available by regular ski buses. The chalet team of Emma, Belu, Ava and Kiki looked after us well and served great food, cooked in the main by the central kitchen team (smart idea that !) of Candice, Emma, Katie and Kerry. Thanks all - I'll do this again for sure

Fully recommend!Nice little group of rooms in a quiet part of Les Gets. At the back of some shops so no noise from the road. Ski hire from one of those shops. Equipment was good (I Had expert skis). Whole holiday brilliantly organised by Belinda and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Food was superb. Also had a small infra-red sauna (3 people) a hot tub big enough for 6 and a small pool - a little cold but OK if you kept moving. Unfortunately snow was poor but again, Belinda arranged transport and took us to better areas so overall, had a good week skiing. In good snow conditions - even the immediate area would be great - the regional pass would have been absolutely superb. I had my own room so not at all cheap but if you're willing to share - it would be really good value. Fully recommend! Rooms: Rooms varied - many seemed awkwardly shaped or were built under the eaves. Also, there didn't seem to be much storage. However, the bed had a memoryfoam mattress, so a great nights sleep, they were nicely decorated and I had a brilliant towel rail so able to dry clothes easily overnight. Communal areas very well equipped. Walkability: The Perrieres lift is just accross the road. Town centre is about 20 min walk uphill but that is a nice distance to build up a pre dinner appetite - otherwise, simply get the free ski bus!

I plan to use Ski Gather againIt was my first solo ski trip and the first time using Ski Gathering. I couldn't have asked for more. The chalet was clean and cosy and conveniently situated near the ski lift. It allowed me to hit the slopes early in the morning without any hassle. The kitchen served superb meals every day - dinner was a culinary adventure. Let's not forget the wine and beers – they flowed freely, adding to the social atmosphere. The chalet staff were excellent, ensuring our stay was memorable. Belinda deserves a special mention. She showed us around the slopes and arranged all our transportation to and from the chalet. The minor downside is the rooms were small, with little storage. The single beds were small and uncomfortable. However, this did not affect my overall experience and I plan to use Ski Gather again.
