Catered Ski Chalets
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.

What to expect from a Catered Ski Chalet
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:
- Reception on arrival - sometimes bubbles !!!
- Breakfast on 7 days - will usually consist of both hot and cold options. Some chalets will also offer the option of packed lunches to take with your onto the slopes.
- Afternoon tea on 7 days - coffee and cakes when you get back from skiing. What a great way to review the days skiing in front of a roaring fire.
- Evening Meal, usually 5-6 out of 7 nights , with many chalets offering free wine and soft drinks. Most chalets have a staff night off, and for that evening your hosts will be happy to provide you with details of the best local restaurants.
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;
- Airport Transfers
- In resort concierge and ski hosting services
- Pre-booking of ski hire and ski passes
- Arranging childcare
- Special timing of children's evening meal if required
Catered Ski Chalet FAQs
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.
Are you able to cater for my allergies/dietary requirements?
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.
Is flexible catering an option?
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.
Do you cater for children?
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.
What drinks are included?
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.
Will lunch be provided?
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.
