As two exhausted new mums, we craved a weekend away—somewhere effortless, indulgent, and completely stress-free. Hotel L’Apogée in Courchevel 1850 delivered exactly that, wrapping us in five-star luxury from the moment we arrived.
Seamless Arrival, Instant Relaxation
The warm welcome set the tone. Staff greeted us by name, handled our bags, and ensured we had everything we needed before we’d even asked. The hotel itself is stunning—refined and elegant yet inviting and warm. It immediately made us feel like we were in for a special experience.
Skiing, Without the Hassle
A ski trip should be fun, not faff. Thankfully, L’Apogée takes care of everything. The ski butlers fitted our boots, prepped our gear, and even had our skis waiting for us at the slopes as L'Apogée is ski in/ ski out! No lugging equipment, no queues—just fresh mountain air, bluebird skies, and wide, perfectly groomed pistes. The variety of slopes suited our pace, and knowing we didn’t have to lift a finger post-ski made the experience even more enjoyable.
Culinary Heaven
After exhilarating days on the slopes, dining was a highlight. Le Comptoir delivered a refined yet comforting feast, with seasonal French dishes that felt both indulgent and perfectly balanced. Meanwhile, Giovanni’s served up what might just be the best Italian-inspired meal we’ve ever had—fresh pasta, incredible wine pairings, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made it impossible to leave without dessert.
Spa Bliss & Slow Evenings
Afternoons were spent unwinding in the serene spa, where a swim, and sauna. Body massages eased those tight shoulders and skin felt rejuvenated after our bespoke facials. The evenings? A glass of wine by the fire and uninterrupted conversation.
At L’Apogee, every detail was thought of, every need anticipated.
We left feeling lighter, recharged, and completely taken care of—exactly what we needed. If you’re a busy mum craving a break where luxury meets ease, L’Apogée is the perfect escape.
I’m currently on maternity leave, but you can contact my colleagues at hotels@oxfordski.com to book your next break.
