Purple Ski Provides a Winter Wonderland for Parents, Tots and Teens with Santa Visits, Cinema Rooms, Igloo Building, Michelin-Starred Dining and More

Purple Ski, the premier luxury chalet operator in the French Alps, is delighted to reveal its top family-friendly chalet choices for the 2022/23 ski season. Offering an outstanding concierge service, gourmet quality cuisine, and an abundance of activities for little ones and grown-ups alike, families are guaranteed to make memories to last a lifetime with Purple Ski this winter.
 
Offering an exceptional portfolio of the finest luxury catered ski chalets across Méribel, Courchevel and Val d'Isère, each chalet within Purple Ski’s bespoke collection – sleeping from eight up to 15 people – has been carefully hand-picked and offers first-class service and facilities, family essentials and a distinctive personality.
 
Purple Ski provides families with all necessary baby equipment as standard, with cots, high chairs, changing mats and sterilisers ready and waiting for families, taking the stress out of travelling and leaving families with nothing to do but unpack and relax.
 
Activities for All Ages
Purple Ski prides itself on providing outstanding service for each member of the brood, with all staff trained to offer the very best experience for parents, babies and everyone in between. On hand 24/7 to help with everything from childcare to ski hire, restaurant reservations, snowman building and more, nothing is too much for Purple Ski’s dedicated family concierge. The team have even been known to organise extra special birthday celebrations complete with fireworks, games and more!
 
The magic starts as soon as guests check in to their chalet, with bespoke gifts provided on arrival for all children. These range from teddies, bath puzzles, colouring books and helmet covers for toddlers to cosy socks, Mikado, dominoes and rubix cubes for slightly older children. A vast selection of activities is available for hard-to-please teens.
 
Activities on offer range from in-chalet visits and presents from Santa Claus, igloo-building, sledding, mini skidoo trips, horse and carriage rides, dog sledding, ice skating, treasure hunts, cinema evenings and more. Disney+ is provided in all properties and kids will also receive a complimentary Nintendo switch to play with and enjoy during their stay. Additional toys suitable for a range of ages can also be provided on request.
 
Gourmet Experiences for Petites Palates
All Purple Ski chalets come complete with a professionally trained, Michelin-star-level private chef, so parents of fussy eaters need not fret. From teddy-bear picnics to pizza-making evenings and kid-friendly menus, there’s a treat in store for even the tiniest of tastebuds. The team can stagger mealtimes so that little ones can enjoy an early teatime, allowing parents to savour a gourmet tasting menu once their youngest are tucked up in bed.
 
Sample children’s dishes include: scrambled eggs with bacon, french toast with Nutella, cream and strawberries to start off the day followed by hearty spaghetti bolognaise with garlic bread and other favourite family dinner dishes although chefs are always on hand to take special requests!
 
Guests of Purple Ski will enjoy a freshly prepared breakfast and afternoon tea each day and an extravagant four-course dinner six evenings out of seven, exquisitely prepared by a private chef. Fine chateau and domaine-bottled wines and unlimited champagne are also on offer to tantalise adult’s palettes.
