Visitor Reviews of Les Arcs

I've been fortunate to stay in Les Arcs 1950 twice this season in Jan and April. The snow conditions on both trips were exceptional. For April we had snow 6 out of 8 days, little or no lift queues .. simply fantastic.
A few comments.
It's true that the concept board shop can get busy on Sunday am and Friday pm. One alternative is to rent from Arc 2000 taking the Cabriolet lift (which is open until 10pm) .. it takes about a minute!
My favourite places to eat are Valentinos (pizza), Meli's burger bar (great at lunch time: €5 burgers) and the creperie. Also the waffles by the clock tower are great. I've also eaten in Chez Anne (Tartiflette was good .. they do takeout as well) and the 1950 brasserie (no complaints).
Nice places to hang out are the wine shop and the club/bar down at the Manoir end of the village.
The Spar supermarket is very well stocked .. the rotisserie chickens always smell fantastic outside! If you can stock up in Bourg St. Maurice then it's cheaper than the Spar.
Finally, the accommodation (I stayed at the Radisson side of the village) is most similar to North American facilities rather than the typical concrete pigeon hole. The rooms are large and well furnished. Ours had a balcony, TV with UK TV channels, free WiFI access and most importantly access to a large heated outdoor swimming pool , along with jacuzzi, steam rooms and sauna! I love being outside in a pool when it's snowing!
Another nice touch is the village is car free. When we were there they had sleigh rides through the village, another time husky rides.
One final note, it would take < 5 mins from leaving our room to being on the piste. It really is ski-in/out.
Looking forward to next years season already!
