For guests staying in our chalets, we can organise your ski and snowboard hire. Arranging ski and snowboard hire is part of our free Concierge Service, and is included in your holiday. We recommend two ski hire shops: PUREXPERIENCE and Delavay Sports. The choice of service mainly depends on the location of your chalet. Please note, we offer our guests an exclusive discount, and our ski hire prices are lower than renting directly from the ski hire shops. We'll need to know what you want, and we'll take care of the rest.
Whether you've never been on skis before, or you hit the slopes on a regular basis, knowing your ability level will help you find the right equipment. Your ski level is based on your experience, and how well you've developed your technique over time. Ski equipment comes in different shapes and materials, using technology built either to facilitate learning or to make your skiing more aggressive. So, knowing where you fall on the chart will help you choose the equipment that's right for you - although these guidelines won't necessarily describe the exact level you're at.

We have partnered with two very distinctive ski hire companies to bring you an a complete range of options for your ski and snowboard rental in Les Gets. Both companies have some unique advantages, and both companies have the same high quality equipment so we will go through both in detail so you can make an informed choice. Let's look at the options in detail:
As part of your holiday with us we can arrange to have your ski / snowboard equipment at no extra cost! This quality ski hire company (PUREXPERIENCE ) brings you a team of professionals who are passionate about what they do and are on hand to advise you when renting or purchasing your gear. Cyril and his team welcome you in a friendly and family atmosphere.
PUREXPERIENCE can be found as you enter the resort in Perrières, just opposite the Perrières 6-seater highspeed chairlift (with access to the Les Gets and Portes du Soleil ski and mountain bike areas). The shop is around 100m²in size, and comprises a rental section for ski equipment in winter and MTB gear in summer, a selection of clothing and accessories, an experiences desk and a workshop.
PUREXPERIENCE is one of the few sports shops in Les Gets that places being environmentally responsible at the heart of everything it does. Proudly a member of the global movement 1% FOR THE PLANET, PUREXPERIENCE donates 1% of its turnover to projects that protect and restore the environment. All the brands and suppliers that PUREXPERIENCE works with, have been chosen for their commitment to the environment, hence we have partnered with them.
Another option within our Concierge service is to arrange ski hire in a Les Gets town centre ski hire shop: Located right in the centre of Les Gets under the main Gondola lift, the famous Delavay Sports shop is generally regarded as the premier ski shop in town. We can arrange all your ski hire with this quality dependable highly regarded company. Arranging with us means you have a single point of contact making it less hassle to organise your ski holiday.

The ski equipment comes in various levels:
Snowboards have 2 levels:
We would ask for everyone's height, shoe size and which grade of equipment they would prefer. With this we can organise to have the best equipment ready for you. For any other price request or information on ski hire, please do not hesitate to contact us.
For those wanting the very best ski and snowboard equipment you can select Ski Test. This is the very top grade. You'll be using only this year's skis or snowboard, and the very best of them. This means you can try different makes of skis throughout your holiday, as well as you can change equipment depending on conditions - maybe some Giant Slalom skis one day for the groomed pistes, then some super-wide powder skis the next day.
The Ski Test equipment is only available in the ski hire shop though, this cannot be fitted in the chalet. The ski hire shop is by the main 6 man express chairlift so is very convenient.
When it comes to organising ski and snowboard hire for you and your group, just get in touch. We can handle everything for you at no extra cost. Please just call or email us, we can discuss the all options with you and answer any questions you may have. Once you've made your decisions please just tell us your requirements and we'll get your ski and snowboard hire all arranged for you.
We have made it easy for group leaders. We have an easy and convenient way for you to arrange all the ski and snowboard hire your group requires, which is through our online booking manager. The great thing about the online booking manager is everyone in your group can use the login details to enter their own requirements, therefore making it an easier process for everyone. Alternatively, you can tell your group members to contact us directly and we will arrange everything for them individually - which makes it less hassle for you. Please contact us about your group extras as soon as you have booked your holiday and we will take it from there.
We normally recommend you arrange your ski and snowboard hire around three to four weeks (20 - 30 days) before you depart for Les Gets. We will contact you then to let you know it's time to arrange any holiday extras you would like. If you would like anything that's unusual, or if you are holidaying during the New Years or Half Term period please contact us as soon as you have booked your holiday. This is because extras such as ski lessons can get booked up quickly during these busy periods (although we can guarantee most extras such as your ski and snowboard hire any time of the season). Find out the best times to arrive in and depart Les Get.
Arriving during these times will ensure that your accommodation is ready and waiting for you as soon as you're in resort — especially handy if you have children to look after. While getting into Les Gets in the morning and hitting the slopes straight away sounds great in theory, in practice the logistics can get a bit overwhelming. While we're happy to store your luggage, we can't always offer you a place to get 'ski-ready'. If your flight times are such that you can't avoid an early arrival, dropping your luggage with us and head out to soak up the atmosphere and get a bite to eat would be the more advisable option.
Again, while the thought of getting one last ski session in on your departure day sounds good, it can become a little tricky to pull off. Firstly, if the weather plays up, it will become a challenge to find alternative entertainment — especially with little ones. Secondly, as it's after checkout time, we can't offer anywhere for you to get changed back into your comfy clothes for your flight home.
×It couldn't be easier to pay for ski and snowboard hire! We are able to take the payment in resort either by cash or by card. If you like to pay ahead, please let us know and we can send you a link for secure online payment.
We have a card machine we can bring around the your chalet, where each person can pay for their ski and snowboard hire. Online payment for ski hire prior to your holiday is also an option. We do not charge extra for any of these services.
Note: All payment for extras will be in Euros.
We become a single point of contact for organising your entire holiday. Just give your party members our contact details and we take care of the rest. We get all their booking details for all the ski hire and you get to relax knowing it is all taken care of.
