Avoriaz reviews (Page 2)

Awesome place may say, be there by 2008, and the place is sick. Good parks, trore is 2st + a park made of natural materials!
Nice place to live too, as previous reviewers said, you live in the hill, step outside the door and stand on the hill ready to go!

Beautiful place!

Nice nightlife, and awesome backs !!!

The area itself is absolutely wonderful, huge ski system. It was around 30 degrees all week when I was there so you could go in shorts and t-shirts, really beautiful. However, the snow was a little smelly in the heat. The apartment was not the best, you could not close the oven, the lights were broken, some things hung out and there was a hole right into the wall behind the phone. At the same time there was a brand new dishwasher that we were very proud of :). But you just have to sleep and eat in the apartment so there were no major problems. lived in alpage 2. Minus for nightlife and the apartment, plus plus for dishwasher and skiing. It may be 5/5.

Have just returned from a week in Avoriaz. What wonderful ride we had all week, different backgrounds were today thanks to the temptation! After a big snowfall, about 3 dm, we slipped around in untouched cushions in x-number of hours - nice to not have so many seasons so we could have it for ourselves :) Had it been in St.Anton it had been over after 1 hour! It was quite sick, so I can live for many months. It seemed very varied and the village itself was heavenly with all the horse rides that went along the main street. You can live the night life with a week or two, then you can do it too, but it was a super week!

okay, you have a great time, you're just one of the many guys in the lift system, you're going to sleep. Do you go down to Morzine, you have to watch the chancellor, and you want to let the Swedes's Morzine steal the stall be? We were 4 Swedes who were singing after 1 manade I had not seen a single Swedish. Knees wonderful and tough at the same time. the powdered sauce super and the seasons are wonderful
only one thing goes on to morzine!

Avoriaz v3 -98. Wonderful ride, great selection and good accommodation! Because the village is small it is close to everything. Located relatively high and therefore snow proof. A huge lift system and the "wall" down towards Champery are awesome! When I was there, V3 might think that there should have been plenty of snow everywhere, but avoid Morzine where it was windy and windy. The night life is okay.

Was there week 5, 2003. I would guess a clean tourist complex ever made in the 60's. Avoriaz is part of "Portes du Solei" and because I had an extension card I went on the whole system. The village is car free so wherever you live you can ski five to the hotel door. I lived in a condominium hotel with its own kitchen and I assume most hotels are constructed in the same way. A little crowded, but what does it take when you're out on the slopes? The backs in their entirety get the grade, like that. There are a number of wonderful slopes but there are also a lot of blue track stretches that you learned to stay away from after a few days. :) One thing I'm, on the other hand, unhappy with, but is the tear of the slopes. All the pistes were not pissed all day and I assume that this is due to the Frenchmen's attitude. Or we just had a bad luck. Better what on the Swiss side, where the slopes were far better pistaded. They did not get up until the afternoon. (there were more with me on the trip who said the same thing) There are two snowparks but these are not so much to hang in the Christmas tree. The same is true of the spikes they had that did not get pissed off the whole week we were there. But if you just wonder if you can find hope right next to the hill that's okay! I found a little "jibbing-scratch" that started at Les Haut's Forts-top and ended down at the village. (along the blue piste) Powder skiing is easy to find but you have to be out early because there are more than you who like singing. Used to be properly cooked lunch. If you like to shark a bit, you can find unshakably beautiful scratches. The entertainment life then? Mmmjaa ... Clothes I would like to say. There are a handful of exhibits but none of them are good. The French have also not figured what afterski is so if you're looking for après ski with live bands and really nice moves (as you can find here at home), you can fix it yourself. But as the embedded optimist I'm, I managed to have fun anyway. I had a nice company so it made sense. In summary, I want to give Avoriaz three out of five possible. No bad place but not great either. It should be added that I was not overwhelmed by the French manners. : - /

I was one of the few recycled who was there during Easter week 2001, when we got there, it was really a snowstorm, during the week it snowed 160 cm so the sneezing was absolutely wonderful. There were very easily accessible offpiste areas, all you had to do where to slash a bit as you had completely unspoilt surfaces in front of them. Since no cars are allowed to travel in the city, you could go boarding right up to the hotel door. One negative, however, was that there could be quite a lot of queue at the lifts from the village. But only one comes from there so there is so much land to explore. As a party city I do not want to recommend Avoriaz, only for the ride.

Were in Avoriaz on the sports promise and it was really ashamed! The village is small but really beautiful. It's like a little fairy tale where cars can not go. The nightlife in Avoriaz is not the best but it is compensated by the wonderful skiing. Avoriaz is part of a ski resort called Portes du soleil and is the world's largest ski area. Portes du soleil, which runs in Switzerland, consists of 650 kilometers of piste and a very large number of kilometers offpiste. It is easy to find untouched powder snow because it is such a big area. What makes the score for Avoriaz a little is out of date and that there are hardly any Swedes there at all.

It's a small town that no cars can drive in so it's a bit like a fairy tale very cozy but not for good nightlife ..
The skiing was good because you could go very far (all over Switzerland).
