The Property
Penthouse Umka is one of just two Penthouse Suites, situated on the seventh floor of the impressive Bear Lodge Residence. Offering a luxury ski holiday in Les Arcs 1950, this beautiful chalet-apartment can sleep up to seven guests and couldn't be better located; boasting ski in/ski out access to the vast Paradiski area.
Spanning two floors, you can expect breath-taking views of Mont Blanc from the elevated position of Penthouse Umka. The open-plan living space feels light and airy with large windows allowing natural light to flood in, yet the stylish water vapour fireplace helps keep the space feeling cosy. Enjoy your morning coffee on the balcony and look on as the resort wakes up and readies itself for another day of skiing. At the end of the day kick back and relax on the plush sofa, drink in hand, as your in-house staff prepare a delicious three-course dinner.
The Bear Suites have been affectionately named after mythical bears from around the world. Situated on the seventh floor of the Bear Lodge, Penthouse Umka benefits from the fabulous luxury facilities found within the Bear Residence. Guests are able to enjoy shared access to a great spa area featuring an impressive pool, sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi, massage suites and gym.
As well as this, family entertainment is not in short supply. There is a large cinema suite in the complex and a kid's playroom where in-house nannies will look after younger members of your group if you choose to add childcare to your booking. With a bar and lounge in the residence, there are plenty of places for your group to relax or have a quiet moment of peace to catch up with some work.
In total, Penthouse Umka can sleep nine guests comfortably in its four en-suite bedrooms. All four of the bedrooms can be configured with double or twin beds with the fourth bedroom featuring an additional single bed, making this a suitable option for groups of family and friends alike. Two of the bedrooms also benefit from shared balcony access.
For convenience, the residence also offers a ski room and ski rental shop on site, as well as garage parking for self-drive ski holidays. There is also elevator access within the residence, for easy access to Penthouse Umka.
Prices are per person and are based on 2 adults sharing a room. The price includes full chalet catering service and a complimentary return coach transfer from Geneva Airport.
Chalet Location
Penthouse Umka is located in a fantastic ski in, ski out location in the very heart of Les Arc 1950. The Bear complex sits alongside the Baptiste Giabiconi blue piste and opposite the Marmottes and Bois de L'Ours chairlifts for quick and easy access into the ski area. With a ski concierge on hand in the ski room to get your equipment ready for you, things couldn't be easier!
A short walk across the piste and you will be in the heart of Arcs 1950, offering a great selection of shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. Les Arc 1950 is a completely pedestrianised and car-free resort - the resort's free shuttle bus is also available, to provide access to the neighbouring resort villages of Les Arcs 1600, Les Arcs 1800 and Les Arcs 2000.

This dedicated chalet team highlights of the importance that the simple things that really matter are done supremely well, in order to make your ski chalet holiday easy. From warm ski boots in the morning to dedicated hosts who will help you with local advice for your ski day. From nannies with a little photo album at the end of the week to multimedia sockets to play your music, images or films. From the utter bliss of a post-piste professional massage or perhaps a manicure and facial, down to the fluffy towels. Silly little stuff like that is important to them, and so they know it will be important to you too.
Your catered stay consists of many elements, making your experience that bit more special. Upon arrival at Geneva Airport, you will be greeted by the team and taken to your chalet via coach. When entering the chalet, your beds will be made, and you will be provided with complimentary toiletries, bath and hand towels. Daily cleaning will be provided on 6 days of the week, and you will have the dedication of one host for the duration of your stay, assisting with dinner and other aspects of your holiday if required.
A catered chalet holiday is all about the food…their chefs and hosts are passionate about food and hugely sensitive to the appetite of a hungry skier whilst considering a balanced diet. Their new and refined menus are heavy enough to reward mountain exertion yet light and simple enough to leave you grinning, not groaning. During a week's stay in the chalet, you will be catered for all 7 days, with a choice of meals for your dinner each day, as well as a selection of house wines, cordials and sparkling water during dinner. Breakfast is provided on 7 days a week- with both cooked and/or continental breakfast options are available, and on the chalet host's day off, a self-service continental spread will be set up, to ensure you are energised for your day on the mountains. As if this isn't enough, a selection of home-made cakes are waiting for you in the chalet once you have finished for the day. Not to mention that canapés is provided on the first and last evening of your stay!
If you are planning a family ski holiday and are exploring childcare options, then you are in the right place. Their nannies will make your holiday and spoil you with a freedom you'd forgotten existed. They drop off and collect children from the ski school, and provide a supervised lunch at the restaurant just next door. Outside of ski school, your children will have endless fun inside and out, from arts and crafts, treasure hunts and storytelling in the Bear Lodge’s playroom, to building igloos, bum boarding, and songs. The Pyjama Club, operating from 7-9.30pm from Monday to Saturday, is ideal for parents who would like dinner in peace or for children who are not ready for bed. Their nannies are chosen for their experience, maturity, confidence, and enthusiasm – regrettably, they are not available to take home!
