Another small village resort that offers a cheap way to ski in Les 3 Vallées. The 3 valley ski area is huge and will keep you amused for more than a week, it also offers something for everyone with over 600km of piste waiting to be explored. Access to the other resorts is quick and convenient and you can ski to you door in most places. Off the slopes the village lacks the mountain charm of Meribel and Mottaret and the shopping malls are somewhat gloomy. It does however provide more than adequate services for the skier and there is a good selection of restaurants. Night life is lively with a host of bars and discos. The cheapest resort in the 3 valley complex.

Resorts close to Les Menuires include: Val Thorens (6 km), St Martin de Belleville (8 km), Meribel (9 km), Mottaret (9 km), La Tania (14 km),

Visitor Reviews of Les Menuires


Rachel from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Stayed in Reberty in Feb 05. A satellite village just up the hill from Les Menuires main resort and much more 'sympathique' than the concrete jungle of Les Menuires itself. We had absolutely fantastic accommodation, real ski-in, ski-out chalet with SilverSki, even included a hot tub to rest the weary legs. Wonderful to ski right back to the garage door at the end of the day and it's so high up (just above 2000m) that even the last run had delightful snow and no horribly icy bits for tired legs.
Three Valleys skiing is phenomenal if you just like to cruise and cover lots of ground. Potential for completely different terrain and views every single day you go out. We had great snow so were able to ski all the way down to St Martin de Belleville which was a first in three holidays in this area. La Masse had superb snow, as did the fourth valley which has a couple of fantastic long runs and was virtually deserted by 3 o'clock in the afternoon (everyone is obviously panicking about getting back to base before the lifts close!)
Can't recommend this place highly enough, 6 days of superb sunshine following a huge dump of snow on the weekend we arrived. Has to be the best ski holiday ever!
