Courchevel

The One & Only Doesn’t matter if you’re a student on a budget or living like an oligarch—Courchevel’s got you covered! There’s always something fun to do, great food to eat, and places to stay for everyone. I’ve been coming here for 30 years now, and honestly, nothing else comes close. Each spot has its vibe: Le Praz for chill mountain town feels, 1650 is ideal for families (love it there), and 1850 is just next-level. ⚠️Warning⚠️: Once you visit Courchevel, it ruins other ski resorts forever. You’ll just keep coming back!

Just about the most perfect destination for a skiing trip. I've been lucky enough to ski there twice now. The infrastructure is second to none and worth while a trip out for anyone.

I absolutely 💯 loved this place, I had not returned in 25 years, and it was absolutely hands down a wonderful visit. ❤️. One thing to take into consideration is that the town of Courchevelle has three different levels of stations. There is the town at the bottom, then a station at about 1600, and then 1850 where I stayed. Prices also are different depending on where you stay, 1850 being the highest! Best ski, of course, being at the highest level. Most of the happening life goes on at 1850, the runs are well maintained, there are plenty of places to eat from Michelin stared restaurants to food cars! And après ski venues with DJs that keep you hooping even after a challenging day of 🎿!!!!! It's definitely a great place to visit 👏 but if you are on a budget 😉 watch out ! Fun has a price!

Fabulous. I preferred the laid back vibe of 1650 against the selfie crazy 1850 resort. Great access to the slopes. Everything you need such as ski hire, ski schools, restaurants etc.

Our favourite side of the mountain in comparison to Meribel and Val Thorens. We stayed at 1650 and skied 1650/1850 and the other 2 slopes above. Courchevel had better snow and was less busy. Prefer it over. Chamonix too. But you can’t really go wrong with any of them! Incredible skiing with amazing infrastructure. We’ll be going every year from now!

I probably had one of the best vacation times of my entire life last time I went to Courchevel last summer, an experience I will most likely never forget for the rest of my existence. The atmosphere and landscapes felt like a different planet, I absolutely loved it!

Review: Beautiful Mountains, but Not the Best Experience The mountains themselves are stunning, but the ski slopes leave much to be desired. While the green slopes are wide and enjoyable, the rest are quite narrow, making it less ideal for confident skiing. The area is mostly frequented by older visitors, with very few young people around. Food prices are incredibly high, no matter where you go. You won’t find a slice of bread for less than €16, which is absurd. Parking is also inconvenient – you need to park about 10 minutes away from the slopes, then walk down 50 stairs from the parking lot to reach the escalator that takes you to the ski pass area. Lockers for ski equipment are overpriced, adding another layer of frustration to the experience. Overall, I’d recommend skipping this place and heading to Val Thorens instead for a much better skiing experience.

One of the best ski resorts in the Alps,
