Comments from previous guests
Just a quick e-mail to say a BIG thankyou to all of you at the Aravis, for making our weekend ski trip a very enjoyable one.We all had a great time, helped along by your warm welcome and friendly and helpful staff. We will have no hesitation in recommending you. Thanks again. Hopefully we didn't disturb the other guests to much? (Sometimes, other people need encouraging!) Happy daze indeed. Regards Richard Tasker (for Team Spyder 2008)
Hi Tom
I just wanted to say how much Jonathan and I enjoyed our break with Karibuni.
The staff were really fabulous. The food was lovely. Nothing was too much
trouble and we were made to feel very welcome. A few of our friends have
expressed an interest so you may be getting a few enquiries. Hope to see
you all again. Andrea (2008)
Dear All
Thanks very much for a splendid weekend. We all thoroughly enjoyed the whole
skiweekender/karibuni experience. The devil's in the detail - as my boss
always says! - and I think that is what scored so highly all through the
weekend from pickup, through to ski hire, dinner, accommodation and guiding.
Most of all of course we enjoyed the company of your team and fellow guests.Best
wishes Niall (2008)
To Tom, Jess and ALL the team,
I just wanted to say thanks on behalf of all 6 of us for the great time
we had last weekend.The atmosphere was great, the food was great and your
friendly hospitality made the whole weekend of skiing go so smoothly and
welcomingly.You certainly picked the right name - Karibuni - : There's only
one downside to all of this…going back to work!
Look forward to seeing you again sometime…soon hopefully! Cheers Nick

We were really impressed by how enthusiastic and hardwoking you all were
yet managed to maintain a really chilled feel about the place. It was really
great fun and you were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. Thank you!

Food - Amazing! Staff - Amazing! Massage - Amazing! Accommodation - Amazing!
Skiing - didn't get the chance to find out because everything else was so
good! Thanks for a great weekend!
Andy & Candi Abbott (Jan 2007)
Second time here had an awesome time again! Thanks to all the staff and
can't wait until next time!
Rowan (Jan 2007)
Once again thank you both so much for your efforts over the last week. As
I think i mentioned, the promise of good food and drink - both vegetarian
and omnivore - were one of our prime reasons for choosing to come to Les
Aravis, and it's fair to say that you exceeded our expectations!
Andy & Deb (Jan 2007)
We had a ball, thanks for the hospitality and lovely food. Will definitely
visit La Clusaz again.
The Gilbeys (Jan 2007)
Thanks to all the team at the Aravis Ldoge for a fantastic week! A great
New Year feast and your usual hospitality saw the New Year in, in style.
Hopefully we'll be back before the end of the 2007 season with some mates.
Laura & Doug (Jan 2007)
Just wanted to send a HUGE THANK YOU to all of you for a great Christmas
snowboarding in the French Alps! We had a FANTASTIC time despite having
no luggage for our entire stay ... the little things like the matching t-shirts
and socks came a long way! A special thanks to Alex, Jess and Paul for coming
to the rescue with your own clothes. The whole chalet experience was definitely
unforgettable ... and we hope to bring our friends back! Happy days! :)
Anh and Tom (December 2006)
Just a word of thanks to yourself, Trudie, Craig, Jess, Sarah and everyone
else without exception for a terrific four days amid good company. I had
a great time and Trevor is still enthusing about his best skiing holiday
ever.
Regards, Rob Warren (Mar 06)
The weekend with you guys has completely restored my 'joie de vivre' and
I have returned ready to take on the world. Particularly memorable was our
snow show walk complete with sun, stars, snow angels and one cute but naughty
dog!!!!
Michelle Maden (Mar 06)
Just a quick thank you to you and all the staff for helping make our holiday
such a good
one! The food was great, rooms spotless & staff as friendly as ever
- it couldn't have been better.

Hi Paul
and all the team, A rather belated but very big thank you for a great
week with you at Half Term. We loved the whole chalet experience and
the little extras like snowshoe walks, fireworks, guiding (oops-orientating!)
and the tea and cakes each day. Thank you for looking after us and
our friends so well. Looking forward to a return visit soon.
Best wishes Maureen and Keith (Feb 06)
The service in the chalet i.e. food, bar, and everything else was
was top notch and thanks for putting up with our drunken antics in
the bar on the final night. I can't even remember going up to bed.
All the best for the rest of the season. Cheers.
Tom Watson (Feb 06)
You certainly
have it licked when it comes to making guests feel welcome and comfortable.
I cannot think of anything else that you could do to make our stay
more enjoyable (free bar may be a start!!). Quite often a second visit
is never the same as the first but with Hotel Aravis the second was
equally as good.
Once again thanks to you all.
Steve Selves (Feb 06)
Dear
all at Avaris lodge, many thanks for an excellent Ski Midweeker. We
had a great time. You looked after us all royally, food excellent,
accommodation fab. Ski conditions were exceptional, loads of sun,
snow and great skiing (boarding). Many thanks for making our escape
a good one. Hopefully we shall make a return visit when possible.
Jackie Lisa Nicky and Di. (16 Jan 2006)
Once again many thanks to you, Trudie, Jackie, Jess, Sarah and crew
for a great w/e and for the very friendly and fun atmosphere you all
create. Bring on the next ski weekend !! Cheers.
Jez Moses. (Jan 6th – 9th 06)
Now
that the bruises have gone down a bit, we just wanted to thank you
and all the team for an excellent weekend. Everything was so well
organised, and everyone was so friendly - the snow-shoeing was a great
experience and our snowboarding certainly improved - we had a fantastic
time and are missing the snow terribly!
Hope everything goes well for the rest of the ski season, and for
the climbing/biking in the summer! Kind regards.
Araminta and Joh (Jan 06)
Thanks
to everyone at Karibuni from myself and all in our group. Everyone
had an awesome time and it was great to have such a wonderful christmas
with you all.I definitely hope to be back out there snowboarding as
soon as possible.
Thanks again. Simon

Just
a quick mail to say thank you so much for a fantastic New Year - after
being a bit nervous coming on my own, all the staff and the other
guests were so friendly I didn't want to leave! It was great fun -
thanks for all your hard work to keep the food, cocktails and entertainment
flowing! I'll definitely be back and looking forward to it. Lucy x
(Lucy Glover – New Year Ski Weekender, Jan06)
Thanks for
a superb break. We enjoyed every minute and were extremely well looked
after
Liz Charters, April 2005
Just
wanted to thank you again for the fantastic weekend had by our group...
Everyone really enjoyed the trip, which was due to your excellent
hospitality, great food, accommodation and atmosphere. Please pass
our thanks on to the girls as well, particularly for skiing with us
to show us the area and get to know the resort
Rebecca, TOTAL UK corporate weekend for 32 people, March 2005
Many
thanks to the Karibuni Team following our recent visit for our Snowboard
Midweeker.
Everything about the trip was great from the location, accommodation,
transfers, logistics and the help and assistance you all provided
to us rookies.
Shaun Allen, March 2005
Just
a quick note to thank you and your team for the hospitality shown
last week. We definitely think your new premises with the facility
of on site boot and ski hire is an improvement on an already very
successful format. I've already received enquires about next years
trip! All in all a thoroughly enjoyable time - but perhaps next year
though you could organise a more favourable result in the rugby!
