Meribel Hotels and Chalets

Meribel sits nestled right in the heart of the Three Valleys, one of the most impressive ski domains in France. Strict planning and development has meant that as a resort, it has been spared the ugly utilitarian accommodation that is the blight of so many French resorts, and has managed to maintain an Alpine charm all of its own. Meribel is resort of chalets – as one enters the resort, one is struck by the sheer number of free-standing chalets that are perched on the mountainside. Hence Meribel offers one of the widest choice of chalet accommodation out of any of the European Ski resorts, from the cheap and not so cheerful, to high class and high quality. Chalet Grange de Marie falls into the latter category – an imposing chalet, sleeping up to ten people with five bedrooms, five bathrooms (all ensuite), a large sitting and dining area with a blasting wood burner, and to top it all, a 21st century infra-red sauna with built in sound system. If you are after smaller accommodation, the newly converted Silvana sleeps seven, and is spitting distance from the pistes. Whilst the hotels in Meribel are not as numerous as they are in Courchevel, what they lack in quantity, they certainly make up for in quality. The charming Hotel Allodis is set right on the slopes and has good selection of rooms and suites, with a lovely restaurant, swimming pool and hammam.
Up in the satellite village of Meribel Mottaret, there is a great selection of apartments and chalets, that whilst does not offer the same level of night life as Meribel, does offer unparalleled access to the skiing, being able to choose between all of the areas of the Three Valleys. The Chalet L’Arclusaz is a stunning example of accommodation that would suit the most discerning of skiers. Freshly refurbished in the summer of 2007, this wonderful five bedroom, five bathroom apartment, with a sauna and a Jacuzzi with views stretching across the valley, is the perfect end to a hard day on the pistes. Overall, the hotels and chalets in Meribel offer huge variety, choice and most importantly, one of the greatest ski domains in Europe.

The best real estate locations in Buenos Aires Argentina

New construction apartments in the Palermo district of Buenos Aires is a prime location these days. Palermo covers a large swath of residential Buenos Aires, including Palermo Viejo, Palermo Alto, and Palermo Chico as well as Palermo Park. Palermo Viejo is a large area that can be further subdivided into Palermo Soho (like New York Soho) and Palermo Hollywood. Palermo Hollywood is home to the trendiest restaurants in Buenos Aires.
Buenos Aires is a cosmopolitan, genteel, and welcoming city, and if you are at all interested, you should visit now, while the prices are probably lower than they will ever be again. The Argentines appreciate foreign tourists, particularly foreign investors who will be able to help turn the economy around.
The capital has all the symbols of modern day living: joggers, internet cafes, dog walkers, women enhanced by plastic surgery, health food stores, and overpriced folklore boutiques. There is a large expatriate community in the northern suburbs of the city, where you'll find supermarket shelves tocked with familiar American products.
