Mountain Collective: Crafting the Perfect Ski Holiday

A perfect ski holiday is so much more than just booking a chalet. It’s about the details that make your time on the slopes smooth, stress-free, and utterly unforgettable. At Nine & Tenne, we understand that delivering exceptional ski holidays means focusing on every element, from start to finish, and doing so with care and professionalism.

Beyond the Chalet
While the chalet is undoubtedly a centerpiece of your ski holiday, the overall experience depends on countless other factors. Punctual airport pickups, ski equipment delivered directly to your door, expert instructors, and dining at the most exquisite mountain restaurants – these are the things that can elevate a good holiday into something extraordinary.
At Nine & Tenne, we take these details seriously. Each element is meticulously planned and executed by people who care deeply about your experience. We believe that when everything is organized and seamless, you can focus entirely on what matters most: enjoying your time in the mountains.

A Personalised Approach
From the moment you enquire about your ski holiday, Paddy, our seasoned expert, will guide you through the entire booking process. With over 20 years of experience in Châtel, Paddy’s local knowledge is unparalleled. He understands the unique needs of every group, from families with young children to seasoned skiers seeking an adrenaline rush.
Paddy’s role is to match you with the perfect chalet and carefully curate all the key elements of your holiday. Whether it’s recommending the best ski runs for your skill level, finding hidden dining gems in the village, or connecting you with the best ski instructors, his personalized approach ensures your holiday is tailored exactly to your needs.

Local Knowledge and Expert Connections
Being based in Châtel for two decades has allowed Nine & Tenne to build an extensive network of trusted suppliers and mountain friends. This deep-rooted connection to the community gives us a significant advantage when it comes to delivering unique experiences.
Need a last-minute booking at the most popular restaurant in the area? Looking for a ski guide who can take you to the most stunning off-piste routes? Want to organize a private après-ski gathering? We’ve got it covered. Our strong local ties mean we can open doors and provide experiences that others simply cannot.

A Talented Team
Behind every Nine & Tenne ski holiday is a talented chalet team dedicated to making your stay unforgettable. From the warm welcome upon arrival to the expertly prepared meals served in your chalet, our team works tirelessly to ensure every detail is perfect. Whether it’s arranging lift passes, delivering a freshly brewed coffee in the morning, helping you get your ski boots on, or making sure everyone has ski snacks and suncream, our team goes above and beyond to make your stay special.

The Best Ski Holidays Ever
At Nine & Tenne, we are passionate about creating ski holidays that exceed expectations. By combining unrivalled local knowledge, an exceptional chalet team, and a commitment to personalised service, we’re confident we can deliver your best ski holiday ever.
So, let us handle the logistics while you focus on the fun!

Paddy, Jo, Andy, and the rest of the Nine & Tenne team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Their care and attention to detail ensured our holiday was both memorable and seamless. Andy checked in with us most days to make sure we had everything we needed and thoughtfully suggested places to eat and experiences suited to all of us. This was an absolute five-star experience, and we would thoroughly recommend Nine & Tenne to anyone looking for a truly special ski holiday in Chatel.

Great chalet directly opposite Linga lift, so easy access to the slopes. We were self catered and the chalet was very well stocked with good equipment. Paddy and Andy were very helpful coordinating transfers, taxis into Chatel centre, restaurant bookings, ski hire and lift passes. Hot tub was a bonus after skiing all day. Highly recommend.

Just another boring 5 star review for the team at Nine and Tenne. They’d probably love some constructive criticism but honestly there’s nothing to criticise! Paddy and Andy were warm and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Andy was like a human internet with bookings for taxis and meals within seconds. So impressive. We were a large group, but everyone felt well looked after throughout our stay. The Chalet was beautiful, the fridge perfectly stocked, the cooked meals and chef night were excellent. The ski hire door delivery was super helpful, and having a taxi to the slopes every day was just an added bonus that made things so much easier! This was a “treat” holiday for our whole family, but I hope one day we can visit another Nine and Tenne chalet in Chatel (which is also idyllic!). Normally I am happy to be back in Devon after holidays, but this one was just too good! I wanted to be back in Chatel!! Take me back!!

The hosting was over and above, thank you! Busy slopes but lunch and dinner all sorted at a great selection of places. The recently refurbished chalet was spacious and right by the bus stop (with live tracker). We actually drove to the free parking by the lift each morning to enjoy the massive Portes du Soleil ski area. Chatel was really characterful, still with a French feel. We will be back!

We are just back from a wonderful week staying at Chalet Grange et Merle. A party of 3 generations, 6 adults and 4 children (9-2). Paddy and team from Nine & Tenne organised it all faultlessly with great attention to detail: from airport transfers, Ski hire at the chalet (so easy and convenient), daily private transport to the ski lifts, ski passes etc. etc. Andy was really helpful and made everything easy for us including shopping. Grange et Merle was a wonderful spacious atmospheric chalet and the sauna and hot tub were resounding successes, especially with the kids. We opted for their Freedom package plus some extras which was excellent (part superb catering and part "freedom" to do our own thing) and which suited us and the kids really well. our only trivial suggestion for improvement is to provide bath/pool robes it was a chilly dash to the hot tub with just a towel! Great holiday much enjoyed by all - highly recommended and many thanks to Paddy, Andy and the team.
