Family Ski Holidays
Family-Friendly and Full of Charm
Vaujany is a village that truly caters to families and those seeking a relaxed alpine experience. With its excellent and affordably priced crèche, first-class indoor swimming pool, dedicated ski school, indoor ice rink, and bowling complex, it offers something for everyone. Add to that its safe streets, welcoming village atmosphere, and easy access to ski lifts—and it’s no surprise Vaujany has earned both the prestigious Famille Plus label and the title of Best Small Resort.
Thoughtful Service, Tailored for Families
At Ski Peak, we’ve always made it a priority to ensure families feel truly cared for—because it’s not just the kids who are on holiday (even if they like to think so!). Whether you need help with ski hire, locating your ski class, or booking a restaurant, our team is always on hand to assist with a smile.
We understand that family holidays can be wonderfully rewarding—and occasionally a little challenging. That’s why we go the extra mile to make things easy. Chalet Sika is ideally located just 200 metres from both the lift station and the leisure centre, where you’ll find the excellent village crèche. Everything is close, convenient, and designed to help you relax.
"The service and accommodation were all excellent enabling us all to have a fantastic and relaxing holiday."
Simon Harris, Chalet Saskia, 2024
Crèche: Exceptional Care in the Heart of Vaujany
Vaujany’s local nursery has earned an outstanding reputation for quality care - and it’s remarkably good value. Reflecting the village’s deep commitment to family life, a brand-new crèche has been built, offering facilities that are truly second to none.
Parents can relax knowing their little ones are in safe, caring hands; engaged in a variety of indoor and outdoor activities, well-fed, and thoroughly looked after. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the mountains while giving your children a holiday of their own.
Ski Kindergarten : A Gentle Start to the Slopes
(skiing in the morning and afternoon child care)
For little ones aged 3 and up who are new to skiing, Vaujany offers the perfect introduction at the Jardin de Neige - a dedicated ski kindergarten located at Montfrais, near the top of the gondola. With its own nursery ski lift and playful model animals, it’s a magical setting where children are gently introduced to snow, learn to walk on skis, enjoy tobogganing, and begin skiing down a short, safe nursery slope.
After a fun-filled morning on the snow, younger children are accompanied back down to the village crèche for the afternoon, where they can play, relax, and continue their adventure off the slopes. It’s a seamless blend of skiing and childcare - designed to give parents peace of mind and children a joyful alpine experience.
Ski School: Confidence on the Slopes, Fun All Day
Children aged 6 and up - and confident 5-year-olds with prior experience, can enjoy both morning and afternoon ski school sessions, designed to build skills while keeping the fun front and centre. At midday, there’s a supervised lunch break with time to play in the snow or unwind in the cosy playroom if the weather turns.
We know every family’s needs are different, so our ski school offers:
- Flexible pick-up times
- Flexible pick-up locations
- Customisable lesson packages
- Adaptable lunch options
It’s all about making your child’s ski experience smooth, safe, and unforgettable.
What happens at lunch?
After lunch, there’s time to rest and recharge - whether that’s playing in the snow or relaxing indoors if the weather calls for it. Then it’s back to the fun, with an afternoon of tobogganing, laughter, and making new friends.
Things to do after skiing
The fun doesn’t stop when the skiing ends. Vaujany offers a fantastic range of activities to keep kids entertained and families smiling long after the lifts close:
- Swimming in the village’s modern indoor pool
- Bowling for friendly competition
- Ice skating on the indoor rink
- Sports hall for games and energy-burning fun
- Climbing wall for little adventurers
- Museums to explore local history and alpine culture
- Cinema for a cosy evening film
- Library for quiet time and story discovery
- Sledging on gentle village slopes
- Building snowmen - a timeless alpine tradition
Whether it’s active play or relaxed downtime, Vaujany has something for every mood and moment.
We will always try to work around your schedule. As a small specialist tour operator exclusively providing luxury holidays to Vaujany, we have the flexibility often missing from larger companies.
Be it to organise a quick second break, a weekend get-away for a large group or perhaps a corporate weekend, we can tailor make a break that meets all your requirements.
It couldn't be more convenient; it is quick and easy, plus as a Ski Peak guest you have great discounted prices.
Our ski area - Grande Rousses Mountain Resort (Alpe d'Huez) - is a vast area of fabulous both on and off-piste skiing.
We know that skiing and snowboarding isn't for everyone or perhaps you just want a day off from the mountain. There are plenty of things to keep you occupied for the whole week!
We've partnered with The Chalet Chef to make hosting memorable evening an absolute breeze. Their chefs will take care of everything for you from start to finish.
