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.

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.

Well organised and very friendlyThis was my third visit to Les Suites de l'Alpe and to a 50+ solo holiday. From the very start it was well organised and very friendly. Belinda made us feel very welcome and explained how things worked, from ski passes and buses, to paying for 18 different drinks in the mountain cafe! Emma, Hannah and Harriet were very efficient and obliging, coping with all our different requests and late appearances. I very much enjoyed my vegetarian option, which had lots of variety and was filling and tasty. Overall i had a fantastic time skiing and staying at the chalet, thank you to all the hosts.

My fourth experience with The Ski GatheringI had an excellent over 50s week at the Chalet des Pistes. Everyone in the group was friendly and there was always someone to ski with. I greatly enjoyed the little tourist train between lifts in Morzine, saved my ancient legs. Food was delicious and we enjoyed the free wine and beer. Thanks to Harriet for looking after us and especially for supplying croissants for my journey home. This was my fourth experience with Ski Gathering and I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a solo skiing trip.
