What Skiers Say About Les Menuires
Les Menuires is primarily reviewed by intermediate and advanced skiers who value its central position in the Three Valleys system, allowing easy access to Méribel, Val Thorens, and Courchevel. Most users highlight the extensive skiing options, efficient lift system, and significantly lower accommodation costs compared to neighbouring resorts. The resort is consistently described as family-friendly with good ski schools, though many note the purpose-built architecture lacks charm and the après-ski scene is quieter than Val Thorens or Méribel. Several reviewers mention busy pistes during peak periods, particularly school holidays, and crowded runs at the base of the resort.

Good ski school options for children.
Can get busy in poor weather when the links are not open. As mainly alpine terrain and lack of trees suffers in poor visibility a bit.
Plenty of apres options and restauraunts. Recommend RocSeven at top of Roc 1 lift.
Slopes are quiet a lot of the time and rarely queues of more than 5-7 mins at lifts.sone great places to eat at altitude as well as as base. Being park of the 3 valleys ski domain you have access to other resorts such as Val Thorens, Meribel, Meribel mottaret, Courchavel, Lan Tania within minutes via the excellent three valley connections.
I love it!
But snow conditions obviously suffer
Last season I went out for last week and was rewarded with 1M deep power and well groomed runs
I often ski in excess of 20 miles a day there really using the same run more than once
So in short it has something for everyone regardless of ability
Some weeks are better with family and some with mates or the people you meet on the slopes and lifts
Good access to lifts, variety of accommodation. Average apres ski locally but Val Thorens link easy to get to for wider choice.
The resort is in the Trois Vallee region. In the Le Menuires Valley you have rapid access to Val Thorens (highest resort in France) all the way down the mountain to St Martin de Bellville and of course the 4th Valley at the south side of Val Thorens.
From Le Menuires you have access to Meribel and Courchevel.
For every standard there are numerous, Green, Blue, Red and Black runs and Off - Piste opportunities.
The shops are helpful and friendly. Restaurants and cafes are plentiful with choices of menu. It is more of a family resort, unlike Val Thorens and much more open than Merbel around the village. A regular connects the resort from the top at Grand Reberty down to Preyerand.
There are a numerous types of accommodation: Chalets, Appartments and Studious with easy access and links to and from the slopes.
All in all, a good Family resort that has been catering for skiers and Families since at least 1980 and has expanded to provided unlimited skiing.
Wide choice of accomodation to suit all budgets. Good equipment hire options.
Family friendly skiing .
In town restaurants are excellent.
Large numbers of accommodation variety
It is however fairly quiet in the evenings due to its family bias.
