No. 7 CLUB Bellevarde

This was our second year with VIPSki in Val D, and it was another wonderful week. We had so much snow arrive even though it was late in the season. Our chalet staff were so warm and welcoming and cooked excellent food. It was such a good vibe in the chalet! It was lovely to enjoy the sauna, steam and heated pool. We were lucky enough to have a stunning room with views over the mountain too! Felt so sad leaving and would have loved to stay longer!

BEST HOLIDAY EVER. :)

I truly cant thank Louise, Millie and all the staff I dealt with at VIP ski recently when we booked our group holiday - the booking process was effortless, everyone was so helpful, came back to me quickly with answers to our questions (even though I must have driven them crazy as trying to get answers out of 14 people is like herding cats!) The Chalet - No7 Bellevarde was beautiful, stunning accommodation, great location - again the Chalet staff were incredible and made our stay the best it could have been. They were all informative, beyond helpful, a truly great bunch, I also have to give a special mention to the drivers, who were just lovely.. All in all a 10/10 experience from start to finish

We had the best time. Chalet was beautiful, our crew were amazing and took care of everything we needed (including an emergency visit to the dentist ) and the food was delicious. We had the very best holiday Thankyou to Martha and the team

Absolutely amazing holiday from start to finish! The chalet is luxurious and homely, even nicer than the photos. Liam and Jasper cooked the most fantastic meals and catered for our every need. I couldn’t praise the girls Martha, Amber and Lia enough. Professional, friendly, always happy and positive - nothing was too much trouble! The special cake and champagne on our 0anniversary was a particularly lovely touch and much appreciated. Hannah and Alistair, the concierge service and all of the van drivers were just brilliant! When one of our party had to unfortunately return home early it was organised swiftly and efficiently. Thank you guys so much - it was a totally ‘wow’ experience!!

Absolutely fab Loved the chalet and the chalet hosts were amazing!!!! Food was so good

This was my first ski holiday and it could not have been any better. The chalet was incredible, so much space and beautifully decorated, backed onto a river which was bliss to listen to whilst in the outdoor pool. Special mention to the incredible crew that looked after our every need and really made the holiday unforgettable. Toby, Martha, Amber, Hannah, Liam, Jasper, Leah, Minnie & Korede - what a dream team! Hope to see you all again next year. Cannot recommend enough. Mx

First time skiing, but this has set a really high bar for holidays. Loved the chalet, very cosy and spacious, with super-comfy beds that were very welcome after all the falling over on the slopes. The real stars were the chalet hosts though, all the way from our cheerful driver Korede, our chefs Liam and Jasper who cooked up incredible food for us every day, and our army of Toby, Martha, Amber, Leah, and Minnie that looked after us so well. Amazing time all round, highly recommended.

No.7 Bellevarde in Val d'Isère is a true gem. A two minute walk from the slopes (literally across the road), cozy yet elegant interiors create a welcoming atmosphere, and the panoramic windows offer breathtaking views of the Alps while curled up on the sofa by the fire. The staff really make this beautiful chalet all the more impressive; Hannah, Toby, Martha, Amber, Liam, Jasper, Leah, and Minnie were absolutely wonderful, and ensured our comfort without being intrusive, and nothing was too much trouble for them; and the food… amazing! Breakfast, afternoon tea, and dinner were all incredibly tasty, and a great variety. The chalet's amenities, including a spa with a sauna and outdoor pool, add a touch of luxury to our stay. It's a perfect retreat for those after a balance between mountain charm and modern comfort.

A phenomenal team; Toby, Martha, Amber, Liam, Jasper, and Minnie took care of us and made us feel welcome from the very start of the trip. Everything from the initial greeting, quality of afternoon tea and meals, cleanliness of the accommodation, general friendliness, information and conversation was top notch (including Korede and his input with the airport transfer and day trips). I would highly recommend a stay with the VIP Ski team.

The Chalet team were really friendly and helpful from day one. They were always on hand to help in the chalet and great guides for resources and places to visit outside the chalet. The food was really incredible and they were very accommodating to dietary requirements. They really made the holiday an incredible time for us and couldn’t rate them high enough. Our team included: Hannah Toby Martha Amber Liam Jasper Minnie Korede from the driving team as well was always great when we needed a concierge driver. He also led the Coach team from the airport and made us feel very welcome before we arrived.

Honestly fantastic experience from VIP ski, above and beyond from all of the staff. Superb menu with great variety. Will be back

We stayed at No.7 CLUB Bellevarde, which was a fantastic chalet. Spotlessly clean and very spacious with ample room for all guests to chill out and relax in the living area. From the moment we arrived, the hosts, chef and sous chef could not do enough for us. Their attention to making our holiday extra special was amazing and nothing was ever too much trouble. Great food and a lovely selection of wines, we were truly spoilt. The concierge was also a great added extra, picking us up/taking us down to town at just a phone calls notice. Would definitely recommend and already looking at returning.

We had 3 families with 6 adults and 8 kids. Bellevarde no 7 was stunning and the perfect layout for our group. The staff were amazing - very friendly and helpful and the food was fantastic. The valet picked us up whenever we wanted but the bus was also great. We also had amazing snow which made the whole trip one of the best ever. Would recommend to anyone. If/when we come back to Val we will be back!

The chalet was excellent very homely and comfortable. However it was the staff that made our stay! They were the perfect combination of professional and friendly. The cooking in chalet by the team was also excellent. I can’t find fault with our experience here.

Lovely brand new chalet, super food - beautifully presented by a flexible cheffing team, attentive friendly happy hosts, helpful management, bookings process easy, and lovely shared chalet guests. All in all a perfect week. VIP has upped its game - based on this experience would definitely recommend & return.

What a fantastic chalet, wonderful staff and beautiful food. The team delivered a truly memorable week, we will definitely be returning and have no hesitation in recommending you to others. Many thanks Ben, Lisa And Harry

We had a really wonderful week in Val D’Isere in Chalet Belvarde 7 and one night in a smaller club chalet opposite. We appreciate honest feedback in our line of work and hope that you will appreciate our comments below. Your website states that VIP Ski is known for ‘luxury and exceptional locations, our service for its unrivalled attention to detail. Every one of our luxury ski chalets is run by welcoming hosts, famous for their charming, attentive, yet unobtrusive service.’ So we will comment in alignment with your brand and our experience. The Chalet: Belvarde 7: The chalet really was incredible. Just the space was wonderful and unusual in typical small french chalets. We loved the sauna, steam room and pool and used regularly. In fact, it exceeded our expectations on all - furnishing, style, layout, generous room, aspect and location. The Service & Staff: Pre-sales was really efficient, friendly and good. We were really appreciative of the way the staff were able to get us out on the slopes within an hour of arriving - organising skis and ski pass! After 3 years of no skiing, our boys loved it! The 2 guys in the first chalet had amazing attitude, approach and very professional, nothing was too much to ask. In Belvarde 7, we couldn’t fault Will - always willing to help and very polite. In Belvard 7 there was a continuous churn of staff, sometimes being served by people we didn’t know and hadn’t introduced themselves. This continuous flow of new chalet staff meant it felt difficult to create a rapport and often felt like we were imposing on them. In Belvarde 7 we felt there was a lack of finesse by the chalet team and the way they used No 7 as a ‘meeting place’. We had a constant stream of different staff through the door or chatting through the open kitchen window (letting in lots of cold air!). We could over hear all conversations with often large groups (more than 5+) of VIP staff in the open plan kitchen… including ‘I’ve had a f*cking awful day’ which I felt wholly inappropriate. One day I was ill in bed due to a horrible cold, which the staff knew and while everyone else had gone skiing, the large team of VIP staff were all in the kitchen with very loud music. They were happy to turn the music down, but I felt lacked consideration. We appreciate they are young and out doing a ski season, but it didn’t feel as though it was in alignment with the VIP brand. And perhaps this is a hangover from COVID with a lack of training and experience. The attention to detail was not present; little things that add up. We were not offered the tea in bed which we had been very excited for and had to ask for. They asked if we wanted our rooms serviced, rather than just doing it - which made us feel like we were inconveniencing them. Arriving for breakfast when it wasn’t fully laid - no tea / coffee; again asking for cooked breakfast which was on offer, felt like an inconvenience…. Rather than being offered it. One of the strangest things, and typical in every chalet we have stayed in for the last 30 years - no welcome chat! No information given or offered on how things would run, what was on offer, all the things we would need to know. We had to ask - what night is the night off, where is the lift, when can we get the bus, how do we get on the slopes etc? The basics. VIP may be unobtrusive, but it was in our opinion too relaxed and not attentive. Perhaps we have high standards, based on previous experiences; in any case we did want to leave at tip but in this cashless society, we didn’t have any cash and asked for a method to transfer some money for the large team who looked after us. This has yet to be forthcoming. The Food. The wine was really enjoyable and wonderful to have sparkling wine every evening with canapés. On the whole the food was good but not exceptional (which was our experience with VIP the previous time we came). We were really happy with the way they were able to cater for our coeliac son, although this was perhaps at the detriment of everyone else? The food in the first chalet was a wonderful meal we all really enjoyed. In Belvarde7, we felt the food standard let the quality of the chalet down. At least 2 meals were really basic - stews with very little meat and a memorable starter salad because it was the first thing they gave us and so bad - ice berg lettuce, raw fennel and a slice of smoked salmon! This could have been poor time management as they had said the fridge was bare and they were going shopping the next day. This wasn’t a good first impression and not in alignment with ‘attention to detail’. The cake on the penultimate day was a real let down; after a magical day skiing in the best powder ever, we came home to a basic sponge with smeared crumby jam on the top! Clearly someone else wanted to get on the fresh powder too. A real inconsistency as the day before was an amazing coffee cake with beautifully piped icing! The inconsistency was disappointing and perhaps a result of the multiple chefs and sous chefs over the course of the week. The Transportation The private transfer to resort was fabulous - very VIP. However, we couldn’t find him and took multiple phone calls and a long wait. Eventually we were directed to the side of the motorway…. Perhaps not the safest place with children. The Pick up service in resort was on the whole good and responsive, but it was disappointing on 2 occasions when we were told we had 30-40 minute wait. The coach transfer back to the airport was in a very tired, stained, broken coach. It did not feel very VIP, although it did the job. If you would like to discuss any of the above we would be only to happy to. Regards James & Ali

There were 13 of us staying in the wonderful Bellvarde 7 chalet. The chalet itself was fantastic with amazing views through the large glass doors. It was spacious but cosy with a log burner in the lounge and comfy sofas and chairs. Every bedroom was beautifully decorated with their own contemporary en-suite bathrooms. But, it was the staff who really made our holiday special. Nothing was too much for Will, Olivia and James. The chef Callum and Myles created the most amazing dinners and, despite some of our strange dietary requirements, wasn’t fazed at all and every night produced the most delicious meals. It was always a treat to return at the end of the day to the tea and gluten free cakes and to the happy faces of the staff. A big thank you also to Stephanie, who booked our lunches on the mountain. We will definitely be back again.

Cal, Miles, Will, Liv and James - you absolutely made our week, thank you so so much for the 5* service and seriously awesome, unforgettable week!xx

Wow, what a week we’ve had here! The chalet is incredible, but what really stood out was the amazing service provided by our wonderful chalets hosts and chefs! Will, Liv and James have looked after us so well. They are the most lovely people who go above and beyond to make sure you have the best stay! Calum and Miles are unbelievable chefs who served us up 5 star quality food every morning and evening! I can’t recommend them all enough! Thank you so much.

Everything was perfect - the views, the fire, the rooms, the pool/sauna/steam, the tasty food and the amazing hosts!! Couldn't fault it and we'll be back!

Such an amazing place to stay with an amazing group of staff. I honestly can’t think of anything that could improve this stay. Huge shout out to the team, who added so much value to our holiday. Will, Liv, James, Callum and Miles! Absolute class. Really appreciated some bangers on the tunes too xx

Very enjoyable week with will liv miles Callum and James. They all went the extra mile to make sure we were completely relaxed and catered for. Exceptional service and also a fantastic chalet. We will for sure be rebooking! Please extend our thanks and gratitude to the team.

exemplary staff, amazing service all around, and the highest quality experience one can have for a ski holiday. youd be foolish not to stay with the heroes at this chalet.. THANK YOU

The whole experience has been brilliant from start to finish. Callum, Will, Liv, Myles, James and all the team have been amazing. Could not have asked more of them - so so impressed and overwhelmed by their service. The chalet is stunning and beautiful and all in all it is awesome.

Great hosts and fantastic chalet. Thank you all

Fantastic service from start to finish. Wonderful Chalet with fantastic hosts who couldn’t do enough for you. Thanks so much for a fantastic holiday.

Very nice Chalet, with all necessary comfort, leisure facilities, nice living room.... but above all a great team, so customer-friendly, service-minded, and professional attitude... always ready to help, to solve questions (eg temperature of sauna); great transportation service Yet also some points of attention for continuous improvement in the chalet: - ski room is by far to narrow, with insufficient sitting facilities to put the shoes on - in the rooms space/hangers for ski clothing could be created (none today) - the speaker in the elevator is too loud in the morning, and later in the evening, when one is in bed

Food was to die for, all the staff went above and beyond to be helpful, accommodating, and friendly and the chalet was stunning - I will definitely be going with VIP SKI in the future!

All the chalet staff were wonderful and made us feel very welcome - especially Liv, Will, James and Cal who were very friendly and great hosts. Appreciate the chalet is new and so just a couple of niggles in the room it might be worth looking into - shower flooded the bathroom a couple of times, think the filter clogs up v quickly - rail in the wardrobe was quite easy to knock off - thermostat light was quite bright at night - possibly a bit of info up on the wall on how to work the sauna/steam room Thanks so much!

We have stayed numerous times with VIP Ski but this chalet is something special - it’s so spacious and the pool is great with amazing views. Our hosts were all so lovely and accommodating and went out of their way to make sure we had a fabulous time. The food was also next level and they were great with handling dietary needs. We will definitely be recommending coming here to friends, family and strangers alike! Thanks so much all!

The whole experience was incredible, from the hosts service to the chefs cooking. Especially from Will, Liv and Callum who day in day out provided an exceptional service. The service was so good that we are definitely keen on booking another ski trip with VIP ski!

The chalet was absolutely amazing. Hosts hard working and super friendly. Food was ridiculously good. Every dish being 10/10. Props to Callum the chef. Will and Liv are legends, made us feel at home and comfortable through out the holiday. Thank you so much guys!

I normally can’t be bothered to write reviews and when I can, it’s normally to moan about something that was shit. This is a glowing review. I recently returned from a week long ski break with VIP Ski in Val d’Isere and it was probably one of the best holidays I’ve been on. VIP handled everything from airport transfers, ski passes, ski hire all the way through to dinner in the evening after a long day on the mountain. They also did exceptionally well dealing with all our enquiries in the run up to our trip, which at one point didn’t look like it wasn’t going to happen to do Omicron and French border control. The chalet was fantastic. Most rooms had been refurbished, had a tele and were pretty much all en-suite. There was also a cracking pool, sauna and steam room. The thing that stood out above all the rest - The chalet staff. They worked tirelessly to make sure we were well fed, watered and comfortable throughout the whole week and were often at the chalet from 6am through to well past midnight. They were all friendly, polite and above all just genuinely great to be around. Special mention must go to our Chefs (Calum and Miles). They were unbelievable and the quality of the food throughout the week was absolutely cracking. Another shout out to our chalet hosts (Will, Liv and Holly). They made us feel right at home, kept us all in check (16 of us!!), kept the chalet spotless and were literally waiting on us all hand and foot. A final thanks to the concierge’s. They were all ace and were there to pick us up regardless of how far away we were. Thanks to all the folks that made our holiday so enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back.

We had the most amazing time staying at No7 and couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful group of chalet hosts /chefs (special thanks to Miles, Callum, Will, Liv and Holly). We couldn’t believe the quality of the food, service and the amazing chalet - everything was completely faultless. We were so sad to leave and can’t wait to visit again soon!

The chalet was incredible and had all the home comforts and luxury to make our stay amazing. The driver service was brilliant and the chalet staff were so great - huge thanks to Will, Liv and Holly for always being so helpful and nice. The food Calum served was unbelievable and him and Miles were really lovely with non stop delicious food. Absolutely loved it and will definitely be back!

I just wanted to send our massive thanks to all the staff at VIP for hosting us for the most unbelievable holiday in Val D’isere this week. The chalet staff (specific mention to Will, Callum, Holly and Liv) could not have been more welcoming- brilliant attention to detail throughout and also a great bunch to have around. The chalet itself was also unbelievable - beautiful location / decor and facilities. Massive thanks to all.

Unbelievable trip in the best chalet in van d’isere. Hosts were epic, food was insane, couldn’t have wished for a better week. 10/10.

Chalet was more than I had ever expected. I am so happy we decided to book with VIP ski. Thank you so much for the best week ever, I could not have asked for a better group of chalet hosts. Calum, holly, Olivia, miles and will were all absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait to book again!

Holly, Liv, Will, Cal and Miles were amazing hosts. Rooms were exceptionally clean thanks to Holly and Liv. And the food was sensational. I particularly liked the lamb shank. Staff were very professional. By far the best ski holiday we’ve had! I would return here in a heartbeat.

Outstanding from start to finish. Where do I begin…. All the chalet hosts were amazing special thanks to Liv, holly, will , miles, Callum Made us feel welcome, unreal service, food was amazing. I really liked the concierge that helped us so much. We will be back for sure have stayed in many chalets this was the best because of the staff!

Holly, will, Liv, miles and Callum were so accommodating! Couldn’t have asked for a better service. A brilliant holiday!
