What Skiers Say About Avoriaz

Avoriaz attracts a wide range of abilities, from beginners to experts, with many families and groups visiting. Reviewers consistently mention the ski-in/ski-out convenience, car-free village with horse-drawn transport, and access to the large Portes du Soleil area including Switzerland. Snow conditions are generally described as reliable due to altitude, though lower runs can become slushy or icy in afternoons. The après-ski scene, particularly La Folie Douce, is frequently praised. Accommodation is often noted as expensive or basic, and lift queues can be significant during UK and French school holidays.

Avoriaz was so pretty and one of the best places to ski. Easy ski in and ski out from our apartments. Everything you need around you. Buzzy and the horse and cart was the best experience to our apartment!

Amazing resort and would likely rate the apres ski and food higher if it was earlier in the season. We were there for the last few days of the season and everywhere was closing down and so the choice of bars and restaurants was limited. Lots of blue runs so very family friendly.

Beautiful resort. Very family-orientated with the ski schools within easy access of the initial lifts and at the base of some of the main runs. The cafes are well positioned too- with plenty of facilities where you need them. We went in the peak Christmas holiday season. It was busy enough to be lively in the town, but no so busy that the skiing and snowboarding was ruined by crowds. The views were spectacular, so if you’re going for vistas and insta-worthy sunsets, this is the place. My partner is an intermediate snowboarder and there were plenty of jumps and challenging tree-lined routes for him to enjoy and progress on.

I’ve been twice and will go back. A lovely resort. Nice runs for varied levels of ability. Nice great food in Restaurants and bars. Great how you have the option to ski to Switzerland and live how the runs go through the town in avoriaz.

Amazing resort, especially with no cars! Went as a family of 5 with 3 children and we all skied everyday all day and had the most amazing time!! Loads of skiing to do, plenty of places to eat and drink on the slopes and everything within easy walking distance in the evening too! Kids also loved the Aquriaz! Whilst the adults enjoy Folie for afternoon fun! Definitely going to return next year and we all can’t wait!

We went to Avoriaz as a group of 7 (4 adults, 3 teenagers) in Dec 25. Unfortunately we didn’t have any fresh snow whilst we were there but we still had a great time skiing and snowboarding. Lots of different types of pistes suitable for all types of skiers/snowboarders.

Just had the best time in Avoriaz at the beginning of April. Blue skies every day, plenty of snow. Lots of great blue runs with both amazing views of the mountains and tree-lined runs too. Plenty of restaurants and bars for all the family. We stayed outside of the resort in Montriond so used the Prodains or Ardent gondolas each day.

We had the best time in Avoriaz, so magical arriving in the dark with the whole village lit up and horses to carry you to your apartment. The apartment was excellent and right on the slopes. The slopes were varied and well looked after and the lifts were great. We loved the pool and sledging and everything about the resort. Can't wait to return.

Great for families and all abilities.
Great places to eat, even more choice if you go to Morzine for the evening.
Swimming pool is great, only open in afternoons but worth visiting.
The spa is amazing and has incredible views. We also went to the bowling alley and had a fun evening playing in the arcade
