We all love the idea of getting away with our families for a holiday to remember.  No stress, no worries … just a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with each other and create memories to last a lifetime. One (super lucky) MoM Member family had the opportunity to do just that and experience and review the Valmorel CLUB MED PREMIUM all-inclusive snow holiday. Check out the fun they had:

How exciting! We have given one family who loves to ski the opportunity to visit one of Club Med’s European Alps Snow Resorts, stay for 7 nights, enjoy everything the Club Med all-inclusive snow holidays have to offer and then report in each day to share their thoughts and opinions. Check out their daily reports on the MoM Facebook page.

Kids from the age of 3 can take to the slopes under the watchful eye of professional ski instructors, while teens and adults can enjoy over 150km of ski runs amidst a forest of pine trees.

Flying in from Geneva, you’ll discover Club Med Peisey-Vallandry. In the heart of 425km of slopes in Paradiski, Club Med Peisey-Vallandry is a charming snow resort with natural wood and stone at every turn. With Kids Clubs for children aged 2-17 years old*, ski and snowboard lessons with Europe’s best ski instructors, and ski-in ski-out facilities, every day can be spent carving up the slopes.

Surrounded by mountains of snow, every day is filled with discovery in this Italian mountain resort. Kids age 2-17* will fall in love with the snow, while you conquer 400km of pure white snow. Enjoy a family dinner together at La Trattoria restaurant where pasta is on the menu, then top off the day with a Finnish sauna. Fly into Club Med Pragelato from Turin Airport. Bellissimo!

About the Club Med Snow Resort Review.

Applications were open between 7 September 2016 and closed on 16 September 2016.

The families had to answer all the questions and also add a photo of themselves with their family on their last ski holiday! The terms and conditions of this review were very specific.

Find out everything you need to know about Club Med all around the World here.

The reviewing family received accommodation in one of the three featured Club Med Snow Resorts for 2 adults and 2 children.  The reviewing family needed to be able to complete their review by 31 January 2017.  Flights were not included so they needed to be covered by the reviewing family. The reviewing family were required to agree in writing to a set of conditions before accepting their place if selected. This included posting at least one written review per day on the MoM site for every day they were with Club Med (including video and photos) and agreeing for videos and photos of their family to be used by Club Med in their promotional material. We also asked that photos and videos taken during the holiday were made available to Mouths of Mums for promotional purposes during and after the review.

So which Club Med resort did they end up in?

  • The fine food festival continues!

    The quality of the food at Club Med Valmorel has been really surprising. Based on ‘all-inclusive’ package deals we’ve had before, I thought it would be designed to just fill you up rather than focus on beautiful ingredients and real fresh food.
    This platter of meat and the big bowls of salad were served with the cheese hotbox but every meal from the buffet is of the same high standard.

  • Getting around the resort and surrounds is easy.

    If you’re staying in the main Club Med Valmorel hotel area (in the Le Lodge premium area which is still part of the main hotel), everything is completely joined internally so no matter what the weather is doing outside, you are snug and warm inside.
    If you’re lucky enough to be staying in the Chalets which sit on the slopes just above the main hotel, you can either wander down via the slopes or the stairs or you can pick up the phone in your chalet and call the shuttle. The driver is there in a couple of minutes and they’ll get you wherever you need to go.
    Usually we use this at the end of the day when we’re all really tired or if it’s snowing a lot. They are also only too happy to take the kids down for you if you want to stay behind and relax or if you are running late and the kids are dying to get to kids club.
    The other day I needed something from the nearby village of Valmorel so the shuttle driver was only too happy to drop me down there and then come back later to pick me up.
    Such excellent service and all with a wonderful smile.

  • Look at the view!

    The views really are spectacular from Club Med Valmorel and so different to any views you’d find in Australia or New Zealand.
    We have skiied in Canada and the US as well but fell in love with this view the moment we arrived.
    Picture postcard and so easy to enjoy from many areas of the resort.
    I took this picture a couple of days ago – we’ve had a lot more snow since then so the mountains are almost all white now. We are here early in the European ski season – in Feb, March and April, you can only see the tips of most trees! Imagine how much snow that must be.

  • Evening entertainment is different every night

    Every night after dinner, there is always a show which is always a great way to end the night. You head from the dining room to the large lounge area where everyone gets themselves a beer, wine, cocktail or mocktail (all included in the price) and then sit back to enjoy the show.
    Sometimes it’s a show that includes the Club Med Guest Officers and other times it’s other entertainers. This photo shows a trio that performed Tuesday night in one of the smaller lounges – they are also adding a few more musicians for a big live music night on Friday.
    After the main show, it rolls into a disco which our girls loved. All the Club Med staff are quite young so love getting up on the dance floor with the guests and especially the kids.

  • All the special touches make it a holiday to remember!

    Yesterday was Georgia’s birthday and the team at Club Med couldn’t have been more amazing! The Passworld manager went out of her way to let everyone at the teen club know and they all sang Happy Birthday.
    Our chalet team organised the most amazing birthday cake for afternoon tea (complete with party hats and candles) and then later that night, the restaurant team brought a cake with candles to our table after dinner. About 12 of the restaurant staff came over to our table all clapping and singing!
    I’m sure this birthday will be one she will remember for a long time to come. Thanks Club Med Valmorel – you think of everything!

  • Always something to do at Club Med Valmorel.

    So when we come in after a day of skiing, I want to flop on the couch or watch one of the on-demand movies. The kids still have energy to burn so they are simply able to step outside our door to continue their fun in the snow. EASY!
    I get to sit back and relax, they get their fill of the snow and then they can come straight back in and jump into a big warm bath or shower.

  • Afternoon Tea every day is such a treat.

    It’s very lucky we’ve been skiing every day as when you come in all cold and a little peckish there is always a very special treat waiting for us. Each day is different but these little beauties were amazing.
    The staff looking after our chalet come in before we get home and lay the table, put on the kettle (or open the champagne) so that we walk in to an absolute treat.
    SPOILT? Yes we are! My afternoon coffee back home will never feel the same again 😉

  • Ski lessons graded according to level

    One of the things I loved about the lessons at Club Med Valmorel is that the ski instructors take a lot of time to ensure that everyone is in the right level lesson. This means that everyone gets just what they need out of the lessons.
    The assessments continue throughout the week too so that if your kids progress faster than the group (or need a little more help), they’ll adjust their group accordingly.
    Their objective is to have everyone LOVING skiing which means that everyone is happy! Love it!

  • Transfer from Geneva - easy, luxury, friendly

    Getting to Club Med Valmorel is easy. If you’re flying in and want to go straight to Club Med, there is a Club Med transfer desk right at the airport. They know what flight you are on and grab your luggage and you’re on your way.
    We actually had a night in Geneva before we headed to Club Med, so we were collected from our hotel with the same friendly Club Med service we always get. I know BMWs are fairly standard in Europe but it was still a lovely bit of luxury for us.

  • Ski Hire made just so simple and easy - with a smile!

    If you’ve ever skied before and you don’t own your own ski gear, you’ll know that getting all the hire gear at the start of your trip and then returning it at the end can be a pain.
    Club Med have taken all that pain away – the team send you a booking form before you arrive for you to complete for the whole family so that all the gear is already organised for you before you arrive. All that’s left after that is for you to try on your boots and then once you’re happy, somebody like Alexis (he’s been a huge help this week with our gear) fill do the final adjustments.
    The team then transfer all your gear into your pre-arranged lockers and give you the swipe card so that you can access your gear anytime you need it. The lockers are all fully equipped with drying racks, a heating and cooling fan to ensure everything is dry for the next time you need it.
    Such a great 5 start service.

  • Mum enjoys time out at the spa

    The legs were tired and muscles were sore after a few days skiing so I thought the perfect remedy was a massage, I was not disappointed! I felt great afterwards and even happier when I found out the price was very reasonable, not like what you are asked to pay at other hotels. Thanks Club Med Valmorel!

  • Wonderful family holiday with lots of great memories made

    I was amazed at the amount of activities available at this resort. Something for every member of the family to enjoy, from grandma to toddler. Lots of outside snow activities, naturally, but also some inside activities to keep you warm. Our room was quite roomy, very comfortable and extremely clean. The food available…..SO delicious. I definitely recommend staying here to anyone. Lots of fantastic memories made that we’ll be talking about fir years to come

  • Toboganning at Club Med Valmorel

    Mid week and the kids are a little keen to have some time out from skiing – time for tobagganing – a great specific area set up with a slope which gradually builds from gentle to steep depending on your preference for slow or fast – kids and dad had a blast whilst mum had time out at the spa – nice to know there were crash pads at the end of the tobogganing slope to pull you up (if you make it that far). Her all had a blast!!

  • Meeting people from around the world

    Another great evening at Club Med Valmorel – this time meeting a family from Israel after our two girls had made friends during ski school and the kids club – a real benefit of Club Med is meeting and sharing experiences with people from other countries and cultures. Love opening our own and our children’s eyes to the world.

  • The 'Winter Room' - just one of the beautiful dining rooms

    Every time you come in for breakfast, lunch or dinner, you are ushered to one of the dining rooms. We’ve been in almost all of the dining rooms which all come off the central buffet area but this one is my favourite!
    It’s called the Winter Room and can you see why? Beautiful Wintery colours and the most amazing ‘chandelier’ you’ve ever seen.
    During meals, Club Med staff are always on hand to tidy your tables as you go, offer a glass of wine or a coffee and generally ensure that you have everything you need.
    The resort is so well staffed, you really never wait for anything. They also understand what it’s like to eat with children so offer you the option for the kids to either sit with you during meals or to stay with whichever club they belong to.
    The older kids 10+ are welcomed into the main dining rooms for serve yourself buffet whilst the younger children all have dedicated restaurants depending on their age.
    It is such peace of mind for all parents as it’s all been so thoughtfully organised.

  • You won't need to worry about feeding the family for a second

    Often when we travel I find it tricky to feed the family to the point where everyone is happy. If we eat out for the kids, I feel I’m missing something exotic or delicious and if we go for a restaurant Charlie and I are keen to try, the kids may not agree!
    At Club Med they’ve got food covered 100% of the day and night for 100% of the guests.
    If you have very young children, there is a full food station with jar food, baby cereals, finger foods specially prepared and other meals perfectly suited to babes and toddlers.
    For everyone else there is a buffet which offers SO much variety that everyone can find exactly what they are looking for. And forget sludgy food being kept warm … Club Med has chefs everywhere cooking to order.
    The salad bars are massive with everything fresh every day and include loads of fresh fruit too. Each day there are different specialities on offer and for something special, you can book into the French speciality restaurant for a cheese fondue or another amazing meal which is a rich Brie cheese baked in the oven and served in its own little wooden box. I could go on all day about the food because it does go all day – anytime you need something it’s there. From a freshly sizzled sausage when you come off the slopes, to a chocolate tart with hot chocolate at the end of the skiing day to beautiful cheese, bread and nibbles with a drink before dinner, it’s all included in your package so there is never a moment where you need to think about how much you’re spending!
    I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to have a holiday where I don’t always need to be thinking about ‘what’s for lunch, what’s for dinner’ etc.
    Thanks SO much Club Med – you’ve converted us to your way of holidaying with the family and we’re loving every second!!

  • Review from Georgia, age 12

    I am staying at Club Med Valmorel Snow Resort with my Mum, Dad and sister and I think I’m living in luxury! Club Med Valmorel resort is amazing and all the staff working here are so nice!
    The ski instructor is the best and makes all the lessons fun and the kids are from all over the World which is so much fun.
    The Passworld Teenage Club (11 – 17) is super fun and has so much to do and so many different activities.
    Don’t even get me started on how nice our chalet is. We can see the main resort, a ski run and the best scenery in the morning!! I have so many photos on my phone to show everyone when I get home.

‘A Beautiful Adelaide Blend With A Lighter Alcohol Content!’

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

Your lower-alcohol go-to

The team rates Enlightened wines 4.34 out of 5 and recommends them for anyone on the hunt for flavour-forward wine with less alcohol. They’re bright, modern and made for the kind of moments where you’d love a glass, but still want to feel good afterwards.

Find Chapel Hill Enlightened at Dan Murphy’s right now for $17.99 each.

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
