Your Room

All of the bedrooms are tastefully decorated, some large and some smaller and all have a windows – (some chalets in France don’t!).

You will have a choice of double or twin rooms for sole occupancy. Some of the rooms will have an ensuite and some will have a shared toilet. All baths have an overhead shower attachment. 

There is also the option to share a twin room if you wish – saving up to £350 per person.

How does a ‘Twin Share’ room work?

We offer a room as a Twin Share basis to increase the total number of guests in the Chalet and also to offer some reduced prices spaces for guests to join. The room is allocated to one sex or the other, depending who books first, they are all non smoking (as is all the chalet), and both guests have their own space and storage in the room. On a ski holiday you spend very little time in your room, therefore a Twin Share option is a great way to save money – use the saving to pay for your lift pass.

Location

Vaujany is just different! Part of the sunniest resort in the French Alps with more than 300 days of glorious blue skies a year, and perched on a beautifully scenic slope in a corner of the Alpe d’Huez ski area. The village of Vaujany is a hidden gem in the big purpose-built resorts of the French Alps. From the nursey slopes of Montfrais and Alpette, to the more challenging terrain of the Pic Blanc glacier, this resort will suit all abilities.

Ski Peak has been the only tour operator to service this charming village for nearly 3 decades. As a family business which was born out of a love for skiing, the mountains, and the finer things in life, the Purkhadt family have worked tirelessly to deliver an experience worthy of all that Vaujany has to offer.

Our 2 chalets are perfectly located, just a 15 minute walk to the main resort centre or less than 3 minutes in the shuttle bus. On the hosts 2 nights off, when no dinner is included, there is a variety of restaurants on offer and the host will book one of these for the group. Recomendations from previous guests are – QG Bar, La Table del la Fare and Ida’s Bar.
