Luxury Catered Chalet Verbier

And if you are going to ski at Christmas, and Verbier is your choice, you will probably want to be fairly close to the Medran Gondola station which is the main access to the Verbier ski network. At this point you may be forgiven to thinking this is going to be expensive, or a huge compromise on the quality, but you would be widely short of the mark, as just a short walk away from the Medran you will find Chalet Flora Alp. Run by Sarah at Discover Verbier. Flora Alp is one of the original and oldest chalets in Verbier. The luxury ski chalet, with its traditional windows and wood structure, and open fire place provides a fantastic warmth, cosy, but still spacious, and with Discover Verbier operating the chalet, the service is pretty damned good too!
