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.

Morzine/Avoriaz is one of the best ski/board areas I've stayed in, having visited multiple years in a row. Perfect for couples and groups of friends of mixed abilities looking for adventures around the Portes du Soleil, including trying jumps/boxes in the snow parks and off-piste. There are plenty of amazing restaurants, bars and clubs for lunch breaks and apres.

Brilliant ski holiday with family, excellent variety runs, lots of lifts covering all areas. Plenty of snow. Not too busy. Lots of bars & restaurants, great atmosphere. Felt very safe & no traffic was a bonus.
Would love to return, this is a dream prize. Wish me luck!

I had a fantastic time, with great skiing and a great instructor. The weather was fun and we were located really close to La Folie Douce - great for Apres-Ski. I wish I had stayed longer. The chalet we stayed in was placed in the heart of Avoriaz. Lovely hosts and super nice people we shared the chalet with! Great experience. Would go back there.

Good, available ski loops with the full ski pass, if you were to get the Avoriaz ski pass alone rather than the Portes du Soleil full pass then I don’t believe you would have enough skiing to occupy yourself for a week but maybe more like a couple of days.

Avoriaz was great and well worth the money spent, Although other Ski resorts may off a higher range of slope options I found avoriaz a perfect place to take my kids and wife who has recently learnt to Ski.

Avoriaz is a really beautiful resort and the lack of cars make it feel really special. It has a lot of wonderful options for post ski activities and an amazing apres venue in folie douce.

i do find the layout of their runs a little annoying, and the last few times ive been there’s been no snow but in general it’s nice
