Best Holiday Ever :-)
Dear Bura Boys, Thank you so much for such an amazing holiday. Everything exceeded my expectations... especially the food! Wow, every night the food seemed to get better and better and it was great to come home after a day of skiing to be fed such great quality food. Of course, the wine included was also an added bonus!
Loved sitting by the fire with a red and chatting to all the guys and other guests. Im already telling all my friends about it and trying to figure out ways to return for next year. Thanks again, keep doing what youre doing cos its fantastic.

Great holiday, straight from the beginning of the holiday the mood was set to enjoy ourselves, from getting picked up at the airport by Matt in his Hawaiian shirt through to the great food. Good times Matt & team, many thanks, see you next year!!

Bura Snow? Bura Brilliant!
What do you want from a snow holiday? You want a nice place to stay, friendly surroundings, great food and drink, excellent ski areas. Bura Snow provided all this and more, with staff that cannot do enough to help and make your stay as comfortable a possible whether it be creating a culinary delight for the evening meal, making sure you glass is always full or getting out on the mountain with you and showing you the best runs as a ski guide. I've been on a lot of snow holidays but I can safely say without doubt this was the one I had the most fun on - from providing great evenings to snowboarding for 20 minutes and not even seeing another person (you really feel like you have the mountain to yourself here). This is a place I can see myself coming back to again and again, roll on next winter! Nice one Bura Snow.

Bura Boys do it best
I can't recommend Bura Snow enough. It's by far the best chalet I have stayed in! The staff are really welcoming and friendly and really make you feel completely at home. The chalet is also very comfortable and the views from the large outside balcony are stunning.
The food also exceeded my expectations. Every night it was delicious, plentiful and exactly what was needed after a hard day on the slopes.
By far, the best hospitality in The Alps. I'll be back!

Queenstown reunion at Bura Snow!
Bura Snow chalet is real good fun! It's so close to everything which is a massive plus. ie the Slopes, the Bars etc etc. Also, another plus is Matt's cooking! Very nice if i do say so myself. Very impressed. In all, it is a cracking place for a ski holiday. 5* all the way!

Bura Snow gave us a fantastic week holiday.
The food was beautifully prepared, the staff friendly and helpful, the chalet comfortable and homely - if only they could control the snow I'm sure there would have been some more powder for us to ride! There is some great terrain in La Rosiere, and the Bura boys are always keen to get out and show you the best spots on the mountain. Cheers for a wicked week, I'll certainly be booking with you again.

Many belated thanks!
Hello Boys! Am off to visit a friend in Chamonix this weekend and I cant help but think its not going to be nearly as much fun as I had in January. Seriously though, one of the best vacations I have ever had. Great cooking, company and fantastic snow. If you'll have me back next year, I'll book now! Given how much I've raved about the chalet I'll probably have lots of friends with me next time. Thanks for taking great care of me and hope you enjoy the rest of the season. xo

Nice one Bura Boys, great holiday!! La Rosiere is a great resort, plenty of sunshine and some of the best snow I ever remember! Chalet was spot on, good food, awesome chilled atmosphere in front of fire and few good parties too - nice tunes Ben!! First season too, it can only get better - great work boys!!

Hi Matt, just a quick email to say thanks for all the hard work you and your team put in, we had an awesome week in La Rosiere.

Just got back home December 2009 and I totally recommend this resort and this chalet to anyone. The staff were superb and totally looked after you from the moment you arrived at the airport (unbelievably with great sandwiches and drinks in the bus) to the moment they drop you off back there. The staff are superb with constant good humour throughout. Never in your face but always there when you need something. Nothing was too much trouble. It was a totally different experience from going with a major tour operator I would say.
Also I found the ski-school I used (ESF) and the hire shop ( Skimium) in the La Rosiere to be both great. I made a lot of progress with my skiing and the people in the hire shop couldnt be more helpful. They changed my boots midweek to give a better fit...and even came up to the slope to make sure they were ok.
One thing I noticed compared to other resorts is how friendly almost everyone is, from the bus drivers to the ski instructors to the shop and bar owners. There isnt the aloofness or too-cool-to-care attitude I witnessed in bigger resorts. The two ski instructors I met were local to the area and really proud to show it off to you as opposed to random mercenaries bussed in for the season.
You cannot have a bad time at this chalet and this resort. Snow was great too.
Good luck for a great season.

Two of us went on holiday with Bura Snow in December 2009 and it was brilliant!! One of the best holidays i have ever been on! Firstly, the hosts are superb. They are very friendly, always up for a laugh and look after you from the moment you meet them at the airport to the moment you are waving goodbye on the way home! Always willing to help you out in any way they can.
The chalet is perfect. It is warm, comfortable and very welcoming. Great for when you've had a hard day on the slopes! The food was 10 out of 10, a good variety for breakfast and a superb three course meal at night! The resort itself is brilliant, some great skiing/snowboarding to be had! It is also very friendly and lively. To sum it up, the holiday was awesome and the chalet and hosts are superb! We enjoyed it that much we have already booked to go back again in March!!
Daniel Odlin (Dec 2009)
Best fun we've had in Europe so far!! Learning to snowboard was awesome but the highlight was the accommodation and more so the company!! Hosts were amazing, let us have all the fun we wanted and then added to it! Great food, great (and plenty of) wine, great snow... cracking week! Thanks Matt, Rach & Same-y (lol)
Rosemarie Marsiglio (Mar 2010)
La Rosiere Xmas 2010, 2nd year with the Bura guys and once again totally top notch. Food was really good, coffee & cake still a truly wonderful idea. The guys couldn't do enough to make the holiday even better than last year, from the 1st beer on the bus to the end of the holiday, all totally awesome. Thanx guys, see u again in March!! Mike Shaw (Dec 2010)
This was without doubt the best skiing holiday we have been on, staff are superb, food excellent, comfy, good wine, better skiing and ski area than we had hoped, hope to be back in the next couple of years.
Craig Chaplow (Dec 2010)
As this was my first trip to the snow and first time snowboarding (or skiing for that matter), I thoroughly enjoyed myself and the Bura Snow team made things so easy right from the start of the booking. The chalet was comfortable, food was great nice to come back to some cakes and nice home cook food, staff were friendly (in particular, special thanks to Rach & James for looking after us) and always willing to help! Had a good few nights out with them at the local bar where we were introduced to toffee vodka (!)... Need I say more!
All in all, a great week away and will definitely spread the word and look to come back another time soon. Thanks Bura Snow team!
Carly Ah Num (Dec 2010)
Excellent experience all round, very friendly welcoming and relaxing environment (felt more like staying with old friends than paying to stay at a chalet). Enjoyed it from start to finish despite the lack of fresh snow (which to be fair is out of your control). Will almost definitely come back and a definite recommend to friends and family.
Chris Walker (Jan 2011)
Thanks Matt, Rachel and Heather for a great week. - Bura Snow can do families every bit as well as it does everything else. Happy kids= Happy parents!! Nothing was too much trouble. Even managed to get the birthday boy and his pals home!! Thanks all, the Woodsides.
Helen Woodside (Feb 2011)
To Matt and all at Burasnow. Thanks so much for an absolutely blinding week. I cant thank you enough for giving us the best holiday ever. Massive respect to Rachel and Penny for the most amazing food and entertaining company throughout the week. Each meal was tastier than the last and the guys were great fun to hang out with- showing us the best boarding spots and drinking in the bar.
I really cant fault anything about the holiday and would recommend you to anyone in a second. From Matts initial communications to the final après-ski of the week it was all brilliant. Myself and Owen had fantastic birthdays during the week and were spoilt rotten. (I must make special mention of Rachels amazing cakes!!) Live music and food in Le Petit Danois- it was all perfect.
Well definitely be back next year and hope to catch up with you all in the summer as well.
Ben Hart (Feb 2011)
We couldn't fault Bura Snow one bit! Such a wicked time had by everyone! Already getting our heads together for dates next year. Lydia's cooking was TOO good....I've come home and realised how rubbish I am! We couldn't have asked for better at all, seriously you guys nailed it. Big thanks for making it so awesome.
