Club Med Peisey-Vallandry, Savoie, French Alps

Perched 1,600 metres high in the spectacular Tarentaise Valley, France, on the edge of the Vanoise National Park, Club Med Peisey Vallandry, is an upmarket all-inclusive resort that is open throughout the year and affords plenty of opportunity to explore the surrounding area, through a range of sports, dependent on the season. There are excellent childcare programmes from alpine skiing and snowboarding in the winter to mountain biking and hiking in the summer months, so this is a holiday for active families who want to make the most out of the opportunities on their doorstep.

The resort consists of two hotels, which offer contemporary furnishings and the luxury of an indoor and outdoor pool. All meals are included and there are several restaurants and bars to choose from, with extensive cocktail lists and a dance floor in one that stays open late. There’s also a baby corner for preparing meals and high chairs and booster seats are available. Opt for the terraces to soak up the views or snug interiors to cosy up in. Kids are looked after in clubs that cater for 2-17 year olds, with energetic and enthusiastic staff. Expect arts and crafts, outdoor games, sports and evening entertainment including shows and films. There’s also a babysitting service to take advantage of. 

Suites sleep up to four people while Club and Deluxe rooms sleep up to three. All are contemporary and comfortable.
