PRICE & AVAILABILITY

Chalet Orca – 5 Bedrooms – Val d’Isère

Chalet Orca is a luxury ski chalet in Val d’Isère, combining a peaceful setting in Le Fornet with an impressive line-up of high-end features. Sleeping up to 12 adults and 2 children across five floors, it delivers modern alpine-chic interiors, an elevated sunny outlook, and sweeping mountain views, ideal for an exceptional catered chalet stay.
 
The double-height main lounge is a highlight, framed by dramatic glazing that captures sunshine year-round and showcases the surrounding peaks. Plush sofas, textured throws and a statement fireplace set a warm, cosy tone, while the open-plan dining area sits just behind. The fully equipped kitchen is separated by an authentic wood bar, perfect for relaxed breakfasts, pre-dinner drinks, or watching your chef at work. Step onto the balcony for crisp alpine air and panoramic scenery.
 
After skiing, retreat to the dedicated wellness level with an indoor heated swimming pool, sauna and hammam, plus a stone Jacuzzi that flows into the pool. An Italian walk-in shower completes the spa area, and the fully equipped gym keeps everyone ready for the next ski day. A mezzanine games and TV lounge with a small bar and pool table adds an easy option for after-dinner entertainment.
 
The chalet offers four double bedrooms plus a family room, with refined timber finishes and soft furnishings for a polished chalet feel. The master suite includes an ethanol fireplace, while the family room features two double beds with overhead single bunks.
 
Ski access is simple: the Fornet gondola is around a short 200m walk for direct entry into the Tignes-Val d’Isère ski area. You can also start from the main snow front for key lifts, ski school meeting points and nursery slopes. Val d’Isère’s centre is approximately 4 minutes away by car, supported by an in-resort driver service (12hrs per day). Practical touches include garage parking with EV charging, lift access (except mezzanine), laundry facilities, a wine cellar and ski room with boot warmers.

I first discovered Top Snow Travel on YouTube. After viewing several of Gilles' videos and appreciating the wealth of experience and depth knowlegde he had in relation to French Alps and Resorts; I decided to reach out to Gilles to assist with planning our families "last minute booking" trip to France skiing. Gilles was very approachable, professional and incredibly responsive providing thorough advice on all matters skiing, lessons/guides, lifts, on/off mountain activities for my non-skiing wife, accomodation options, transfers, dining options, etc....along with answering every conceivable question one could ask. The options assessment and booking process was swift, effortless and the resultant trip to Meribel 3 Vallees France amazing. If you are looking to ski France I highly recommend you contact Gilles at Top Snow Travel. Thanks for making our families recent trip easy and thus a fond and memorable experience Gilles!

Top Snow Travel did an excellent job orchestrating and planning our family ski vacation to the French Alps. From the very beginning, Gilles was incredibly responsive, patient, and helpful in tailoring the trip to our specific needs—especially traveling with a young child and wanting an authentic European village experience.Arc 1950 was a great choice for our family, with a charming town center and a fantastic location. While weather and snow conditions were challenging at times (completely out of anyone’s control), Top Snow’s planning and support made the trip as smooth as possible.A true highlight of our vacation was the private transfer arranged by Top Snow. Our driver, Sam (the owner of the car service), was outstanding—professional, safety-focused, and proactive. His advice to leave early due to weather concerns turned out to be absolutely the right call, and we are very grateful for his careful drive to Geneva.Overall, Top Snow Travel delivered exactly what they promised: thoughtful planning, excellent communication, and dependable partners on the ground. Gilles was a pleasure to work with and always quick to answer questions. Despite some uncontrollable weather challenges, our family had a great experience, and I would absolutely recommend Top Snow Travel to anyone planning a ski trip to the French Alps.

Gilles was wonderful to communicate with, great recommendations and every detail taken care of.Our stay in Val d'Isere was a trip highlight, highly recommend Chalet Izia as a good ski in/ski out option. The apartments are well appointed with all that you need, friendly staff and good facilities.

We booked a big family Christmas skiing in France through Gilles at Top Snow Travel and absolutely loved it!! We will definitely be back; our accom was perfect and Gilles helped with trains, transfers, lift tickets and lessons - even restaurant recommendations. He took care of everything and there were no hiccups. If you’re new to skiing in France and need help picking the best spots, Top Snow Travel is for you - thanks Gilles!

Last year we booked a ski holiday to the 3 Valleys in France through Top Snow Travel and have just returned from a week in Meribel. Gilles was extremely helpful with advice and suggestions to help us make our decisions in regard to where to stay and which valley (we had a non-skier so it was important they were also catered too). It was overwhelming when we tried to work out how to book this part of our holiday on our own so it was good to have his advice and help, including with transport to and from Meribel. We would use Gilles and Top Snow Travel again, thanks for a great trip.

Gilles was so responsive from our initial inquiry through our questions on arrival...He was instrumental in picking the right French Alps ski venue for our needs to facilitating our choice of hotel and amenities...For someone who typically does not utilize a travel agent, I will certainly use Gilles again on our next French Alps Ski vacation!

Top Snow Travel were fantastic for helping us narrow down the multitude of options to find the best resort for our family ski trip. Their recommendation of Val D'Isere ticked all the requirements we had and was a beautiful place to spend the week, both on and off the slopes. Thank you Top Snow Travel - we will be back in touch with you for next time

We reserve the right to change these Booking Conditions at any time prior to you making a booking request.

Deposit

A 50% deposit per person, is payable upon us accepting your booking. Please note that we may not hold any services for you until we receive payment of your deposit, meaning that services may become unavailable or prices may increase, in which case you will be responsible for paying the increased price, and we will not be responsible if services become unavailable. Some arrangements may require full payment at the time of booking. We will advise you of this if this is the case.

Final Payment

Payment in full must be received no less than 90 days before commencement of your trip. Note: some trips or particular arrangements may require payment earlier or in additional instalments and this will be advised with the booking confirmation.
 
If you fail to make payment by the due date, we will remind you to make payment. In addition to the payment, you will also be responsible for any costs imposed on us by suppliers resulting from late payment. If we do not receive payment within 7 days after the reminder, you will be deemed to have cancelled your booking.

 Cancellation Policy

You may cancel your booking by giving written notice to us. Cancellation fees and charges will be levied as follows:

  • any amounts we have paid or have contractually committed to pay to third parties to deliver your travel arrangements which we cannot reasonably recover or not incur (for example payments made or due to third parties for accommodation, transfers, lift passes, ski rental, ski lessons, hire vehicles, and any other elements comprising your travel arrangements);

  • a fee equal to AUD $330 or 5% of the booking value (whichever is the greater) to compensate us for processing the cancellation and any associated refund.

Cancellation fees and charges will not exceed payments received by us at the time of cancellation. If after the application of these fees and charges there is a surplus of payments you have made to us, we will refund this to you within a reasonable time.

Any payments we have made to third parties will only be refunded to you once we have deducted the above cancellation fees and charges and once we have actually recovered the amounts from the third parties. As we will be subject to third party terms and conditions, we make no guarantee that we will be able to make recoveries. 

For group departures, a transfer of a confirmed booking to another departure date is deemed to be cancellation of the original booking.
