Amazing resort! Lots of snow cover. Lots of different runs perfect for intermediate, and some green runs. Beautiful views!

Courchevel is a very good ski resort for all standards of skier and when you add the access to the whole of the 3 valleys is an excellent place to ski different runs each day of the week. Lifts can be crowded at times and it is a good idea to take your breaks outside of normal lunch time and ski during the noon to 2.00 pm period. Restaurants can be expensive so so you need to search for the more reasonable ones in the towns. We stayed in 1550 which has a lot of good value family accommodation. La Praz is a beautiful old town and has a great pub, The Elephant, in its centre.

Great skiing area that takes you past a great view of the airport (and sometimes a glimpse of the vips). Some nice well groomed pistes and varied run, with brilliant access to the other resorts close by. By pushing out to the far reaches, there are some nice and quiet runs (time dependent), which makes for sone really good skiing. Overall an excellent place to ski and some nice cafes and restaurants.

Courchevel 1650 is an excellent base for skiing Courchevel and Méribel in the Trois Vallee. Fantastic slopes for all levels and welcoming resort staff. Well connected for lifts. Courchevel 1650 is relatively small with nice, friendly atmosphere. Some older chalets and new modern apartments.
Local free bus link to Courchevel 1850.
Great amenities for groceries, eating out and a big modern leaisure centre.

We started skiing here in 91 and the children grew up on skis in the huge three valleys area (La Tania when children, subsequently 1650 and Meribel). The area is vast with something for everyone - a good reason to keep going back.

Really great resort! Would highly recommend for food lovers! The pistes are well maintained and the mountains are beautiful. The three valleys has something for everyone!

Very expensive in the village (and anything on the mountain), but excellent conditions when I went in late December.
Plenty of off-piste terrain to explore with gorgeous views.

Courchevel is quite an large ski area, it has a variety of ski runs for all different abilities. There are plenty of options for wizz kid boarders and skiers, right down to the novice. The ski lifts etc are very good.
The ski schools are very good, and have really experienced instructors, and cater for young children from around 4 or 5 years of age, my kids had a really good experience, the instructor was very patient and skilled at her job, right up to those of advanced years, as long as you can stand up!
It is generally very friendly, and good for families.
It is however, quite an expensive resort/area. If you are on a bit of a budget, venture down the mountain to some of the villages, there are large supermarkets which are better value for money.
On the whole, an enjoyable experience.

Amazing runs, the best place we have ever been. Great accommodation at Fahrenheit 7. Lots of runs. I recommend the 3 valleys lift pass, so many amazing resorts and runs. Ski lockers are really useful if staying further away from the lift.

My family and I stayed in Courchevel. It was fantastic! The people, the runs, the apres, the beautiful area, it was all great! The one thing I would say, is it (in my opinion) is one of the better places to go skiing/snowboarding and the price reflects that. So accommodation is quite pricey, especially if you want to be near the lift. But other than that, you seriously cant go wrong!
