Honestly can't recommend @Avoriaz 1800 and Hotel Mil8 for its incredible location, facilities (they've also got an onsite kids playroom) and hospitality enough! Thank you so much for having us (p r) and enabling us to explore one of the most beautiful places in the world if you ask me, skiing in the winter, exploring in the summer, just perfect and it genuinely has it all! I don't know if we've ever been anywhere this welcoming of children with so much all included! It is worth noting you'd need a transfer from Geneva to Avoriaz (which is a completely pedestrianised town!) but the hotel provided this as part of our trip and so I'm unsure of the cost, however I figured you'd be driving to CP if that's what you're comparing it to anyway. #avoriaz1800 #avoriaz #holidayswithkids #havekidswilltravel #familyhotels

HOW IS THIS CHEAPER THAN CENTER PARCS? (AND IT MIGHT NOT BE WHERE YOU'D IMAGINE) Now we love CP, we've gone together every year since we were 17 years old (in the winter when it's cheaper mind you) but the cheapest I could find 4 nights in center parcs, as a family of 5, this last week was £2400... And it doesn't quite look like this... Or have luxury 4 piece bathrooms with the softest dressing gowns and slippers... Or include breakfast in one of the most breathtaking restaurants I've ever seen... I'm talking a fry up / fresh eggs / all the French meats, cheeses, yoghurts and bread, granola, bloody good french coffee, all included with your stay... and the parks don't quite look like this, I mean come on! We had the most gorgeous walk here and used all included / free transport to get back! Our three So is it really cheaper than CP? All in...? It still gets the big smiles, that's for sure! Flights from LHR to Geneva £178pp for 5 full days... Shoutout to swiss air who give out chocolate and sweets even though it's a 1 hr 15 min flight! Also, worth noting, this was the only time the whole holiday anyone went on a tablet, because there was SO much to do! 4 nights in a family suite that sleeps 5 at Hotel Mil8 - £1331 Avoriaz and Morzine Multi Passes - £68 for all of us for 5 days These cover your lift pass usage, all the activities like trampolining, climbing walls, bouncy castles, parks, sand pits, inflatable water slides, access to an indoor and an outdoor swimming pool complex with splash parks and slides. There's no saying no or worrying about extra activities - it's all in! Buses and mini trains are free between the two places Total cost including all activities and breakfast, £2289! For 5 days, in the French Alps, with places like this on your doorstep to explore, Pretty incredible if you ask me... For a holiday of a lifetime really! We LOVED it! Hi I'm Jade, mum of 3 (although I'm not in this photo because I'm the one always taking the photos) and I'd love for you to follow along as I show that holidays with young kids are doable, you've just got to know where to look
