Next Season...

Hi all, ive been looking for places to go next season and i really like the look of the Paradiski area, Les Ares and La Plagne... Ive never been to this area before so im wanting to know from anyone that can give me any advice what the resorts are like...

There will be a group of us probably staying self catering. any web links for good apartments will be a great help. We like the big ski area with plenty to offer and from looking at the piste map it certainly looks like it has plenty to offer.
Whats it like on an evening, is there plenty to do? not bothered about going out till all hours drinking so dont need to know about bars. whats the resorts like, is there plenty of shop, restaurants if we want to eat out etc

Thanks Christian
