Pierre & Vacances Résidence Electra

Our accommodation was pleasant, you could ski in ski out, order fresh bakery the night before. The location of our accommodation was great, just enough walking for kids to go to shops and restaurants, it was conveniently located close to public passage with escalators going up and stairs going down. You could pay for ski passes in the machine in the hotel next door. Avoriaz ski resort was fantastic, views were spectacular, you could do as little or as much as you wanted. So many activities for ski and non-ski people. We tried Aquariaz (swimming pool), which was pricey but a nice activity to do. In Avoriaz there are plenty of restaurants, bars and cafes, again there are pricey but the service and quality of food was excellent. There is one supermarket in centre of Avoriaz.

The accommodation was tiny for 5 people, considering how much ski clothes we had. There was no double bed only 2 singles, we had to make our own beds with bedsheets etc which for the price we paid was strange. There was double duvet but only single bed sheets so for the first night we had to sleep without bed sheet cover which was unpleasant. The ski lockers were super tiny for 5 people, the smallest I have ever seen. We had to pile up everything on top and once opened everything was falling out. Also too many people were sharing ski rooms and it was impossible to get through. No hairdryer in the room, which again was not a nice surprise. There was no communal area to relax.

Location, helpful staff

Beds not very comfortable, small pillows and no toaster
