AMAZING
My aunt owned a ski company in this area and we managed to ski once a year almost. Its a bit expnsive when you get up to 1850 but in 1650 and La Praz its really good for anyone. The ski runs are fantastic and the night life is really good. Highly reccommended to anyone, even in summer as you can go white water rafting as well :P

Introduction to Courchevel
November 20, 2006
Courchevel has been called a resort of "high taste, high fashion, and high profile," a chic spot where multimillion-dollar chalets sit on pristine pine-covered slopes. Skiers and geographers know it as part of Les Trois Vallées, sometimes called "the skiing supermarket of France." The resort, with 150km (93 miles) of ski runs in Courchevel and 604km (375 miles) of ski runs in the Trois Vallées around it, employs as many workers in winter as in summer, many of whom do nothing more than manicure and maintain the slopes. Courchevel 1850 has excellent resorts and hotels -- with price tags to match -- so it draws the super-rich. Travelers on average budgets should avoid it and head for more reasonably priced resorts, especially Chamonix.
