About this property
Make your next ski trip one to remember with a stay at the luxurious rustic L'Ours. Perfect for families and groups of friends, this property is an ideal place to base yourselves for a chic winter escape.
Set in the popular Portetta lodge, L'Ours is a great choice for skiers and non-skiers alike. With lots of activity happening in and around the residence and Courchevel Moriond, you’ll never be too far from the fun - no matter what your idea of that may be.
These gorgeous apartments are decorated in a traditional lodge style with heavy wooden fittings accented by chic modern accessories. With everything you need to make yourselves at home for the duration of your stay, you can rest easy at L'Ours.
Set across a single level, L'Ours’s effective use of space creates an environment that is cosy and homely without feeling cramped. A good-sized open-plan living room and kitchen make the heart of the house, with spacious sofas and plush chairs gathered around a roaring fire and a flat-screen TV. A spacious outdoor balcony is accessed via doors in the living room and your bedrooms.
For meals, a fully-equipped kitchen has all you need to make delicious meals for your group while a cosy dining nook gives you a place to gather around for mealtimes.
When it’s finally time to lie down and rest after an eventful day of skiing, two bedrooms are yours to choose from. The main bedroom features a double bed, storage space, a TV, a private en-suite bathroom and direct access to the balcony. The second bedroom also has a double bed, a TV and access to the balcony, but has additional storage space and lacks its own bathroom. A shared bathroom is located adjacent to the bedroom as are two separate toilet rooms.
While staying at Portetta, you’re welcome to enhance your visit by upgrading to a half-board basis that allows you to make use of the property’s delicious restaurant for breakfast and dinner each day. While not included in any meal packages, Portetta also has a trendy bar, perfect for post-ski cocktails and nibbles.
If you don’t have your own snow gear, don’t worry - a high-quality ski rental shop is located within the Portetta lodge as is a dedicated storage spot. At the end of each day, all you have to do is hand over your equipment and their expert staff will make sure it’s all in perfect shape for the next day. They’ll even place your ski boots on a special rack that keeps them nice and warm for your next outing.
Located at the base of the magnificent Courchevel Moriond ski resort, L'Ours has an enviable and much-sought-after location among snow lovers. Also known as Courchevel 1650, Courchevel Moriond is a pleasant resort with well-tended slopes perfect for beginner and intermediate skiers.
To get to Courchevel Moriond, most visitors choose to fly into Geneva, followed by a car or coach transfer to the Courchevel Moriond resort. From Geneva, expect the journey to take around two and a half hours.
The Courchevel ski zone is made up of three sister zones based at different elevation points - Courchevel 1650, where L'Ours is located, gentle Courchevel 1550 and Courcheval 1850. From L'Ours, you can get to either zone with ease, either via the slopes themselves or by driving. If you haven’t rented a car, don’t worry as a regular bus service runs between the three zones.
Of the three zones, Courchevel 1850 is known for its more advanced runs, so if wish to visit but you’re not a confident skier it may be best to drive between resorts. Within Courchevel Moriond, the majority of ski paths are flagged as either ‘easy’ or ‘very easy’, with a handful of ‘difficult’ runs for more advanced skiers.
While at L'Ours, your location is ideally beside one of the resort’s main ski lifts, providing easy access to the slopes for all. With its proximity to the lifts and slopes, L'Ours is the perfect ski-in ski-out lodge.
Outside of winter sports, Courchevel Moriond is a great little resort to visit. The small village has everything you should need to enjoy your time at Courchevel Moriond - shops, cafes, restaurants and a well-stocked supermarket.
