Chalet Juba

:: Welome to Chalet Juba, Nickski ::

My name is Nick and I own and run Nick Ski which is an independant catered ski chalet company with just the one chalet run by myself and partner Joanna. I would like to share my passion for skiing and great food in a wonderful forest setting with you. In normal conditions the chalet is literally ski to the door. The new green run is 50 metres away from the chalet so everyone can ski home.

Chalet Juba was built 7 years ago and is in the pine (Norway Spruce) forests of La Tania which is situated between Courchevel and Meribel in the largest and best skiing area in the world known as The Three Valleys.

I know the whole area incredibly well and can advise on the best routes to take and the best runs to try.

We offer a Catered Chalet service (demi-pension, 6 nights a week). We select great wines from the autumn "Wine Fairs" and hope you enjoy them too. Joanna spent 15 years in the Food Industry and also teaches Food Hygiene. I have always loved cooking and together we have planned delicious meals for you. On our day off you sort your own breakfast and eat out in one of the local restaurants in the evening.

Our aim is to make your holiday a special and memorable occasion and many of our guests return each year.

:: About Chalet Juba ::

Chalet Juba is positioned in the beautiful pine forests of La Tania at a height of 1400 metres and with snow cannons lining the runs down to resort you will always be able to ski back down. The new easy/green run home, Plan Fontaine, has been improved this summer and is only 50m from the chalet.

The village of La Tania is between Courchevel and Meribel in the Three Valleys area of France and is arguably the best and the largest ski area in the world.

The village has access to the 3 Valleys area by 2 modern high speed lifts which then give you the option of skiing into Courchevel or Meribel (and onto Val Thorens).

In normal conditions it is possible to ski from and back to the door of the chalet.

The centre of the village is accessed by a public elevator approximately five minutes walk from the chalet where the local ski shops are very helpful and there are a number of friendly bars, resturants and shops.

I had the chalet built to my specifiation about 7 years ago and it can accommodate 12 people in 6 twin or double bedrooms, all have en-suite facilities, three also have balconies. There is always plenty of hot water for all the baths/showers and the interior of the chalet is a non-smoking area. The lounge has a wood-burning stove and plenty of space for everyone to sit comfortably on big leather sofas and relax after skiing. The large boot room on the ground floor has boot driers and there is also plenty of car parking space next to the chalet.

:: La Tania::

La Tania was purpose built for the Olympic Games in 1992 and has plenty of nice bars and restaurants with live music most nights of the week; Pizzas, Michelin Star Gourmet Food, Cocktail lounge, Savoyard Fayre (fondue, raclette), English Pub, Modern Euro/British Bistro.......

There is a modern Gondola and then a fast chair lift which whisks you to the top of the mountain in no time, this then gives you access to either the Meribel or Courchevel Valleys. At the end of the day there are 3 lovely tree-lined runs back to the resort and the blue has snow cannons all the way down. The new green run, constructed 2 summers ago, and 50m from the chalet, has since been improved making it even easier to get back at the end of the day.

:: The Three Valleys::

The area is incredibly vast with nearly 400 miles of pisted runs, of which over 150 miles have snow cannons. We never get bored skiing the Three Valleys and many guests return each year.

We regularly ski to Val Thorens and the 4th Valley, Orelle in a day.

There is an incredible amount of off-piste skiing lasting days after snow-falls.

There is also a free bus service to Courchevel which operates until late evening.
