 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
I will hopefully be going to Val Thorens the week of 12th-19th April next year with my teenage son. Do people sometimes stay in different accommodation, but join the group for skiing and/or socialising together, or does everyone stay in the same accommodation? TIA.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

People generally stay in the same accommodation because it's about more than just meeting up to ski. But you'd probably be welcome to meet up if you do decide to pay more to stay elsewhere. Presumably lessons would go as a priority to bash attendees proper.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I have done basically this three times now, one Family Bash and the last two EoSBs, booked an apartment elsewhere in VT for the same week.
I mostly just skied with  that I already knew though and only met up with them for two evenings last week. Social skiing groups tend to form up on the public piste outside the Oxalys at 9am each day, I guess you could try introducing yourself and asking if you could join one.
The Oxalys apartments and facilities are to a high standard and the bash price is a good deal for what is provided.

Thank you very much. My teenage son is a bit shy and isn't sure about sharing an apartment, but he would like people to ski with, as he's always been in ski school till now and they do a teen group doing much more fun stuff than he can do with me... I would love people to ski with too, and have enjoyed ski school adult classes the last 3 times, for company and the tips.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@Wishy2206, there are quieter smaller apartments available if necessary, but you would at least have a room and bathroom to yourself.

@Wishy2206, I've twice stayed in a quiet apartment with just two bedrooms.

@Wishy2206, there can be quite a range of ages of children in the Family Bash, whereas the End Of Season Bash tends to be much more the normal range of snowHeads adults, fewer children. I think you would find it possible to control the extent that you get involved with others in a shared apartment. Certainly, both of these bashes are great value and great fun.
