It's that time of the year again when we reluctantly put away our beach towels, relegate the sun tan lotion to the back of the cupboard, and face up to reality - summer is over. Whilst for some, the shorter days and chilly temperatures are things they wish to delay for as long as possible, for many others, the end of summer means only one thing - the countdown to the first snow! If you fall into the second group you're no doubt already researching your ski chalets. Meribel is likely to be high on your list of possible destinations and is pretty heard to beat in terms of chalets, pistes and the general ambience. It is a premier ski resort which is perfect for a ski-weekend getaway, but also has plenty to keep you entertained if you're planning a longer visit.
For the romantics amongst you (we know you're out there!), Meribel is the perfect place to whisk your loved one away for a surprise holiday, or a long-anticipated winter sojourn in the extensive choice of luxury ski chalets. Meribel's relaxed and welcoming atmosphere makes it an ideal place to spend some romantic downtime; here are just a few suggestions how.
Cool Slopes, Hot Tub
After a day spent whizzing down the fabulous pistes in and around Meribel, there is no better way to relax than by sliding into a hot tub. Whilst having a soothing soak in a Jacuzzi is possible inside many ski chalets, Meribel also offers outdoor hot tubs! Sounds crazy in the middle of winter, but in fact you'll be toasty warm as you snuggle up with your partner under the bubbles, sipping champagne and watching the sun go down on the private deck of a luxury chalet.
Down on One Knee, Up in the Air
If you're planning on popping the question on your romantic break away, why not try a location away from the hustle and bustle of the ski chalets? Meribel has the perfect place to get down on one knee that will practically guarantee you a 'yes' - just make sure your loved one isn't afraid of heights! A hot air balloon ride over the ski slopes would make for an unforgettable experience under any circumstances; but throw in some red roses, champagne and a marriage proposal and it becomes the stuff of love legends!
Wine, Dine and Home by Nine
It's an oldie but goodie - a romantic candle-lit dinner for two. Well within walking distance of the ski chalets, Meribel has a host of world-class restaurants offering a diverse range of cuisines. Start your evening sipping cocktails in the Grand Coeur Hotel as you are entertained by the delightful sounds of live piano music, then move on to one of Meribel's best restaurants - Le Blanchot - where you can wine and dine your love in front of the cosy, crackling, open fire. One of the best things about staying in a ski resort like Meribel, is that everything is within a compact and convenient area; so instead of having to worry about taxis or buses, once you have licked the spoon clean on dessert, it's just a short, romantic, hand-in-hand stroll back home to bed. A perfect evening!
