Apartment Malia

Only 90 minutes drive from Geneva in the Portes du Soleil ski area, Morzine is a picture-perfect traditional family resort with skiing to suit every style, from absolute beginners to powder-hungry experts.

Apartment Malia is perfectly positioned to make the most of this beautiful area with a central location in the village which enjoys a lively après-ski scene with plenty of bars and restaurants and has easy access to the entire ski area via the Super Morzine gondola which can be reached within minutes.

The Portes du Soleil is one of the world's largest ski areas and comprises 12 resorts that straddle France and Switzerland between Mont-Blanc and Lake Geneva. Morzine is at the very heart of 600km of slopes.

The attractive town has three main lift stations, and Apartment Malia is very close to the Super Morzine gondola which gives access to Avoriaz and the rest of the Portes Du Soleil and offers the highest Skiing in the area. On the other side of the town is the Pleney lift, popular with beginners and low intermediate skiers because of the lovely long blue runs and open reds that return to the village or provide access to Les Gets, popular with families with children. The Nyon lift is located at the valley's North end and accesses the Nyon-Chamossiere sector at 2010m and is ideal for thrill seekers and expert skiers. There are two runs and there are some challenging off-piste options here. Apart from the Skiing and snowboarding, the winter sports available in this resort are endless, so maybe try snowshoeing, Snowmobiling or husky-dog sledging!

Morzine comes alive when the lights go down and there is no shortage of bars vying for your trade. Things kick off at the foot of the slopes as skiers end their day and head to Bar Tremplin, arguably the best après ski bar in Morzine with DJ'S spinning classics from 4pm and a terrace in the sunshine. There is a great choice of excellent restaurants in Morzine suitable for every budget, and the wonderful mountainside restaurants with terraces where you can enjoy long lazy lunches on sunny winter days are unmissable.

Morzine is a fully functioning all-year-round resort offering fabulous scenery, stunning landscapes, and many paths to explore on foot alongside dedicated mountain biking trails considered by many as some of the best in the world. Lake fishing is available at nearby lakes Lac Mines d'Or and Lac Montriond, and there are magnificent views to enjoy when golfing at the Morzine-Avoriaz & Les Gets golf courses.

An abundance of activities available for every age and every taste in Morzine makes this a fabulous choice for an unforgettable getaway. Its easy access and wonderful facilities make for a picture-perfect destination.
