One of the main decisions when booking a chalet holiday is whether you want to stay in a catered or self-catered ski chalet. For many skiers and snow boarders, a fully catered ski chalet is perfect because it allows you to completely relax at the end of a day’s skiing. You don’t have worry about grocery shopping in an unfamiliar location, or most importantly, deal with the dirty dishes afterwards.
Catered ski chalets offer fantastic value for money, and whether you are budget conscious or looking for luxury, all offer freshly prepared meals in accommodation that feels like a home away from home.
As well as this, staying in a catered ski chalet means you have a host (or occasionally more) that is an expert on the area and all its offerings. Most hosts are also incredibly passionate about skiing and snowboarding themselves, and love to share their knowledge on the area and its offerings. People often say that the hosts make their holiday, as they’re always very enthusiastic and eager to ensure you have the best stay possible.

All chalets vary in terms of the exact service that they provide but, here is a good idea of the type of service that you should expect to receive. For the exact details provided by each chalet, please check the individual chalet advert.
A typical 1 week stay in a catered chalet service would be something like this:
A ski chalet holiday is all about the experience so many catered chalets offer a range of additional serivices to help you make the most of your ski holiday. These includes features such as;
Below are some common questions around catered ski chalets, though please note that every property is different. The exact details of the catered service offered by each property will be confirmed at the time of booking.
While every property is different, most if not all will be able to cater to any allergy or dietary requirements a guest may have. We do recommend that this is communicated to the property when booking so they can confirm if the request can be accommodated and prepare as required.
Some properties do offer flexible catering, for example if you wish to choose your own menus or want to dine out on certain nights. Some properties also offer “contactless catering” where prepared food is delivered to the chalet and guests can serve themselves.
SA menu of child-friendly meals can be provided at most properties, as well as the ability to have their meals earlier if required. Be sure to check the individual property details prior to booking to ensure they can cater to the ages you require.
Many catered chalets will include complimentary wine and soft drinks during meals. We recommend checking with your property, who will often be happy to arrange additional drinks, such as a case (or five) of beer if required. Some properties included soft drinks, beer and wine at all times during you stay.
Again, this varies by property, but general lunch is not provided as most guests will be out skiing during the day. Some chalets may put together a packed lunch for you to take skiing, whereas others may presume you want to sample the great dining on offer on the slopes themselves.
At allChalets.com you can book a wide range of ski accommodation, safely and securely. Whether catered or self-catered, or in a ski chalet or apartment, we put you in direct contact with chalet owners and managers so that you can arrange the best ski accommodation for your needs and budget. Many of our chalets often have ski deals or special offers on accommodation for last minute bookings or quiet periods.
Booking privately means you have flexibility over your holiday, allowing you to spend your time in accommodation that feels like a home away from home.
We’re also a member of the Travel Trust Association and we provide 100% financial protection for your holiday payments.
