Hot Tub
One of our best loved features here at Chalet Le Panoramic is our truly authentic woodfired hot tub!
- Our guests absolutley adore soaking in the hot tub after a hard day on the piste!
- We usually light the fire early in the morning so it’s just right for you when you come back to the chalet.
- The hot tub sits proudly on our magnificent sun deck and overlooks the piste.
- “There’s nothing quite like sipping on a cold beer and talking over the days skiing with other guests”


Ski directly to the chalet door to be greeted by our heated boot room, out of boots and dash to your room for a quick shower, don your robe (provided) and make your way to the lounge, perhaps requesting a beer at the bar en-route!
Stop for a brief chat by the roaring fire (some guests are reclining, absorbing the beautiful village views) before stepping out onto the deck, hang up your robe and step into that gorgeous hot water, the traditional wood built tub feels great as you rest your head against it, smell the tinge of burnt pine wood air and the crispness of the evening coming in, the piste is still a blur of skiers and makes for entertaining viewing while you chat with your loved one who has joined you.
A member of the snowlife team comes out to stoke up the fire and offer you another drink, your muscles unwind and you begin to thoroughly relax.
What ever next? Canapes at the bar? Four course evening meal by candle light? Free bar? Thoughts of another day skiing from the chalet door?

Your ski chalet hosts…
Simon and Lisa have lived and skied in La Clusaz for over twenty years, during which time they have fallen head over heels in love with the French Alps (La Clusaz and the Aravis region in particular!). They have two children Molly age 9 and Jack age 5 who also love the snow and both of them ski in the local ski teams and go to the village school.

Renowned and truly-on-the-piste chalet offering superb family accommodation with hot tub, excellent cuisine and all the trimmings you’d expect when picturing the ideal mountain ski holiday experience.

Guests Comments
The Chalet is beautiful and Ben, Ellie, Richard & Alice are a fantastic team. I’m definitely going to be attempting some of the delicious recipes although I’m sure my cooking won’t be anywhere near as mouthwatering!!!
Many Thank, Kelly…1st March 2009 I miss being there already!!! Hopefully we will be seeing you all again.
Sorry for the delay in writing to you, we had an excellent journey back but getting back to routine has proved very difficult and not surprising after the amazing holiday we have just had.
It had been my aspiration to organise a ski holiday for my friends and family for a long time but my total lack of organisational skills meant that it was always an unaccomplished feat. That is until Lisa so wonderfully guided and actually just got on and sorted it all out for us. Lisa, all the pre-holiday arranging you did was truly appreciated and without it we would have floundered so thank you for your patience.
As for the holiday itself; the welcome and the tremendous hospitality that you, Richard, Alice, Ben, Ellie, Molly and Jack bestowed on us was way beyond the call of duty and was core to how much we enjoyed ourselves. You have an amazing eye for detail and we were not left wanting for anything. Thank you.
Judy was a real star to accommodate our revised childcare needs at the last minute. You have attracted very capable and willing staff that were only to eager to please; we even enjoyed Ben’s fabulous musical talent one evening. As you know many of our party were those who had not skied before, they are all smitten with the activity. However I fear the combination of the amazing skiing conditions and the luxury and ambience (particularly its homeliness) of the chalet have spoilt them all for their future experiences…

Chalet le Panoramic is everyday china and elbows on the table. It’s earthy, not fussy, easy, not painstaking. Our cooking is no nonsense soul satisfying cuisine.
Fabulous Chalet Panoramic!
the fabulous family ski holiday destination ~ la clusaz!
Situated on La Clusaz’ principal piste, Chalet Le Panoramic boasts the most prestigious location in La Clusaz, Aravis. With breath taking views of the winter mountain range and the entire village (which is a pleasant five minutes walk away) the whole family is able to ski to and from the chalet door to no less than five ski lifts; beginners button lift, two cable cars and two chair lifts which place you directly onto any of the numerous superb slopes.

What gives Chalet Le Panoramic the edge over the rest is individuality and personal attention to detail, this lies at the heart of the chalet where the owners, Simon and Lisa and their team of four, can often be found cooking up delights in their state of the art kitchen, tending the roaring fire, manning the bar or readying the chalets hot tub ready for you after a day skiing on the wonderful slopes of La Clusaz in the French Alps.

A fabulous family ski holiday to remember…
Fabulous catered Chalet Le Panoramic’s emphasis is on you and your family’s winter ski holiday. It goes without saying that our snow chalet is absolutely perfect for children and those all important first family ski holidays!
