Ski Hosting:
Hosting in catered ski chalets in Ste Foy, France
Steven and Nuala are very proud to offer both ski hosting and snowboard hosting from their experienced and enthusiastic team. Ski Hosting means we escort you around the piste. It really helps you get the most out of your skiing holiday, and it really is fun. You often get to do things you wouldn't have normally tried, like skiing in a different resort on each day of your holiday. We can also accompany you to the other nearby resorts of Tignes, Val d'Isere, Les Arcs and access Italy through La Rosiere, so much skiing so little time!
Ski hosting is not ski guiding, however we do have a very close relationship with many of the local guides here so if you are after some of the world class off piste or the Heli Skiing the region has on offer, let us organise it for you. Guides and helicopters get booked up well in advance so let us know before you arrive if you would like to savour any of these experiences.
We are very fortunate to have the choice of 3 companies in resort. Ski Set, Ski Republic and Zig Zags. We can also offer a 2 for 1 deal on ski and board hire.
The ESF ski school is just a short walk from both of the Sainte Foy chalets, and on your first morning we will even accompany you to the office. It is necessary to book lessons or guides in advance, especailly at peak times. We are happy to help with this process.
