I love the amazing views from the balcony. Top tip: the Gold apartments look directly over to the slopes
The apartments in the chalet buildings are all linked by a lift system meaning you don’t have to walk outside to access the swimming pool and leisure areas which are on the top floor next to the Reception.
We were really happy with the service at Peak Retreats. We will certainly use you again. Our holiday to Le Grand Bornand was the best ski holiday so far so thank you very much.Â
The resort facilities in Le Grand Bornand were great for families.
The resort has lovely bars and good choice of restaurants. It is traditional in style and felt very family orientated.
Le Chinaillon part of Le Grand Bornand was the perfect resort for a beginner. I am a beginner snowboarder and my partner is intermediate. The range of different runs was perfect for us and I would have struggled if I didn't have access to so many green runs.
