Vaujany offers a rare combination of traditional village character and direct access to one of France's largest ski areas. Unlike many purpose-built resorts, it retains an authentic Alpine atmosphere while providing modern facilities, excellent lift connections and a wide range of apartment accommodation suitable for families, couples and groups.

What types of accommodation are available in Vaujany? plus icon minus icon

Accommodation in Vaujany is primarily apartment-based, with options ranging from smaller properties for couples to spacious apartments suitable for larger families and groups. Many residences offer features such as wellness areas, swimming pools, mountain views, parking and convenient access to the ski lifts.

Is Vaujany a good resort for families? plus icon minus icon

Yes, Vaujany is widely recognised as one of the most family-friendly ski resorts in Europe. It holds the Famille Plus label, offers excellent facilities for children, beginner-friendly skiing and an impressive leisure centre. The welcoming village atmosphere and range of family-sized apartments make it particularly appealing to those travelling with children.

How close is accommodation in Vaujany to the ski lifts? plus icon minus icon

Many accommodation options are located within walking distance of the lifts. Some residences are around 70m from the cable car, while others are a short walk from the main gondolas linking directly into the ski area. The village's escalator and lift system also makes getting around easy.

Is ski-in/ski-out accommodation available in Vaujany? plus icon minus icon

Not really, you really need to take the gondola from the village to access the ski area, so rather than looking for ski-in/ski-out options, it's about finding accommodation close to or within easy reach of the gondola. Lift access is efficient and convenient, allowing guests to reach the ski area quickly.

Do Vaujany accommodation options offer mountain views? plus icon minus icon

Many residences enjoy excellent mountain views thanks to the village's elevated position on a sunny mountainside. Several south-facing and mountain-view apartments provide impressive panoramas across the surrounding peaks, valleys and ski terrain.

What makes Vaujany different from staying in Alpe d’Huez? plus icon minus icon

Vaujany provides access to the same ski area while offering a more peaceful and authentic village experience. Guests can enjoy excellent lift links, extensive skiing and modern facilities without the busier atmosphere often associated with larger purpose-built resorts.

What ski school do you recommend in Vaujany? plus icon minus icon

ESF Vaujany is the principal ski school in the resort and offers lessons for children and adults from beginner to advanced levels. As places are popular during peak holiday periods, we recommend arranging lessons as early as possible to secure preferred dates and times.

What type of lift pass is available in Vaujany? plus icon minus icon

The main lift pass provides access to the Alpe d’Huez ski area, which offers 250km of pistes across multiple linked resorts. We can pre-book lift passes before departure, helping you avoid resort queues and maximise your time on the slopes from day one.
