Our Catered Service

One of the most enjoyable parts of a catered chalet holiday is undoubtedly the food. At Ski Armadillo, we aim to create the perfect dinner party every night of the week. Our food is of the highest quality and our wines are carefully selected to complement your evening meal. Regardless of which of our fabulous chalets you stay in, you will enjoy a drinks reception with canapés, afternoon tea and 3-course gourmet evening meals served on five evenings. Your host will have laid your table exquisitely and will take care of you throughout your dining experience, serving delicious dishes and topping up your glass. Relax, you’re on holiday!

Our skilled chefs

Ski Armadillo only employ great chefs who have the vision and ability to create a menu that suits you. We have designed a carefully created menu for our chalets, which still allows our chefs to be creative and flexible. If you have any special requests or dietary requirements, let us know and they can design a bespoke menu to meet your tastes. We know how important the food is when it comes to your chalet holiday, and we use ingredients that can be sourced locally to provide a menu of the freshest dishes possible.

Our Fine Wines

Quite simply, we want you to enjoy delicious, good quality, well-researched wines, which will be tasty enough to drink on their own as an aperitif or when lingering at the dinner table. Our job is to dispel the notion that chalet wine will be ‘cheap ‘n nasty’ so we have carefully selected fine wines for you to enjoy with your meal, offering a selection of reds and whites of the highest quality. It was a hard job, but we tasted dozens of wines and voted for some gems, chosen for their superior tastes – we’re sure you won’t be disappointed.

Breakfast & Afternoon Tea

Wake up to the smell of brewing coffee and freshly baked bread. Your chef will ensure you fuel yourself for a day of skiing, whether you prefer a full cooked breakfast or simply some fruit and yoghurt. The table will be laid with a selection of breakfast items to choose from. After a long day on the slopes, unwind with a cup of tea and a slice of cake by the fireplace or on your balcony. Your host will lay out your afternoon tea, so help yourself to a sweet treat – you deserve it after all that skiing!

Concierge Service

Once a booking has been made with Ski Armadillo, our concierge team will be on-hand to assist with all other elements of the skiing holiday, including but not limited to; airport transfers, lift passes, ski hire, childcare, restaurant reservations, spa treatments and much more. In resort, we provide a 24/7 concierge service to assist with all those last-minute requests. Nothing is too much trouble, we’re here to help. More on our Concierge Service
