AliKats Mountain Holidays is a family run independent luxury chalet company based in Morzine, France with a portfolio of chalets and a strong reputation for excellent gourmet food and exceptional customer service.
We invest a lot of time and effort in training at the start of each season to create a well-bonded and high functioning team and also provide extensive ongoing support throughout the season. We believe that if our team is happy, healthy and having fun that all of the other details will follow.
