Ski Basics

Fantastic chalet company with exceptional reputation

featured in Tour operators Updated

This chalet company is renowned for its friendly, approachable staff that deliver uncompromising levels of customer service; these assets, complemented by competitive pricing, account for the high percentage of guests that return to ski and board with the company year-on-year.

Ski Basics have been operating in Meribel for over 10 years and know the Three Valleys inside out. They have hand-picked their catered ski chalets for their comfort and location, only the best make the grade!

Their chalet hosts are selected for their warmth, enthusiasm and, of course, exceptional hosting ability. Equally, all their staff members are well versed on Meribel as a resort and are only too happy to help you find your way, from suggesting a route around The Three Valleys to recommending a bar for the evening.

In their catered chalets, each morning you will receive a hearty breakfast, on your return from skiing you’ll find a tasty, freshly-baked cake and on 6 nights you will be treated to a 3 course evening meal with complimentary wine.

Ski Basics aim to tailor your ski holiday to your needs. For example, they are happy to change meal times to suit kids’ bedtimes or alter the menu to suit all dietary requirements. You will have a Chalet Manager who will always be on hand to help and advise, including delivering ski passes, booking ski school and organising ski rental.

Visitor comments

  • "I would have no hesitation in using Ski Basics again. I'm already recommending it to my friends. Everything about it was first class. My experiences with Cheryl in the UK office were phenomenal customer service, nothing was a problem. I'm involved in the recruitment business and I was thinking to my myself how you've done an incredible job hiring such great people when I can appreciate it isn't easy, but your staff make Ski Basics the superb product that it is. You need to change your brand, it's Ski Luxury!" - Stephen Flannagan - March 4, 2017
  • "Really great holiday and Ski Basics made everything so easy. Easily the best ski/chalet company we have used. Most chalets already booked up for next year so please please get some more so we can use you again next season!" - Sabina Bennett - April 1, 2017
  • Amazing holiday - very well organised and extremely helpful. The chalet was beautiful and in the best location. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Meribel." - Kathryn Tesch - March 18, 2017
  • "I've been skiing for 15 years and I think this was the best holiday yet! The combination of great snow, sunshine and a good fun group were important factors. But Chalet Bouquetin and our fabulous hosts, Joe & Kath, made it just superb. Definitely recommending it to our friends and hope to be back next year!" - Kathy O’Donnell - February 25, 2017
  • "That was our 5th time using Ski Basics and we can't fault the level of service, standard of chalets and value for money. We have tried in the past to go self-catering and I truly believe that when all is factored in, it works out more expensive than using the Ski Basics catered package - this is one of the reasons we return to Ski Basics when we come to the 3 valleys." - Andrew Trott - February 25, 2017
  • "I have been most impressed with Ski Basics from start to finish. Organising a family party of twelve plus a baby, travelling by three different routes was not simple - everyone's needs were different. However, Cheryl in the UK office tackled all requests and alterations in her stride, with friendliness and a "nothing is too much trouble" attitude. I can't imagine better chalet hosts - Davina and Rebecca made a great team and again, nothing was too much trouble. The chalet was delightful - spacious, quirky, and overall, well furnished. Walking into town was easy and took approximately 10 minutes, but the personal minibus service to and from the slopes was brilliant." - Jane Straker - March 26, 2016
