Purple Ski

The best way to ski.

Since 1992 I have been offering what I believe is the finest service in the Three Valleys. My aim is to ensure that my guests have the best possible skiing holiday, on and off the slopes. I learned to ski in Méribel and have skied the Three Valleys for over 15 years, yet each year I can not wait to get back to enjoy all that Méribel has to offer. After staying with Purple Ski I hope you will feel the same way about Mottaret and Méribel.

Keeping the business intentionally small and "special", the emphasis in all my chalets is on service and cuisine above the norm. Each chalet has its own professional chef, who I believe produce some of the best cuisine to be found anywhere in the valley, along with at least one chalet girl/boy to assist them and also a driver to whisk you to and from the slopes and generally help make sure that your holiday is as stress-free as possible.

On this web site you will find details of what makes taking your ski holiday with Purple Ski a truly memorable experience.
