Matt from UNITED STATES
I have never stayed in Villaroger, but have driven & skied/walked there this season while living in Bourg St. Maurice.
While it may be possible to buy a lift ticket for only the Villaroger lifts, most will opt for a Les Arc pass (or Paradiski when they get the Vanoise Express running again in Dec '08). With Paradiski, you can ski Villaroger, Les Arc, Plan Peisey and all of La Plagne without driving (although you may need to download the last lift down to Villaroger depending on conditions).
Previous reviewers' comments seem spot on. -

Leather Bindings from UNITED KINGDOM
Having stayed at Villaroger for the past few years, I can thoroughly recommend it. Providing an ideal central location for those wishing to ski a number of resorts (Val D'Isere, Tignes, Les Arcs, La Rosiere, Ste Foy and La Plagne all accessible with a short journey) or for those who prefer to remain close to home, Villaroger/Les Arcs provides plenty of varied skiing for the beginner to the most experienced. It's true to say that Villaroger is not the nightlife capital of the world, however there are a couple of local bars/restaurants which can be recommended, both frequented by the locals meaning that the prices are very reasonable (Val is only about 30 mins away for the party animals). Having stayed in the centre of many of the bigger resortsin France, I have to say that you often leave with no sense of the local culture, but that can not be said of Villaroger. Lift office next to the carpark, no jostling in long queues and access to the Aiguille Rouge providing one real leg burner back down to Villaroger and a well deserved beer in La Ferme. Going back this year, to hopefully enjoy the excellent conditions that are available at this early stage of the season.
