Chamonix Mont Blanc France is a one of a kind holiday destination with the impressive Monte Bianco and tumbling glaciers. We enjoy going canyoning or sometimes visiting the Aiguille du Midi. I normally catch a plane from Upland and stay at a Chamonix catered chalet for the duration of my stay.
I used to stayed in The Metropolitan Hotel Hilton Head unfortunately it sometimes didn’t live up to its description: This property is ideally located in the heart of exclusive Hilton Head Island. Just 3 minutes from the beach, near fine dining, shopping, tennis and world class golf. Guests are spoiled with hospitality and every modern convenience like microwaves, refrigerators and coffee makers in each of the 140 rooms. The property offers four distinctive categories of lodging: Sabal Palm Rooms, Majesty Palm Rooms, Royal Palm Rooms and the ultimate Royal Palm Luxury Suites. Guests can enjoy cocktails and a nice meal in the restaurant and bar. If your passion is shopping, playing 18-holes or just relaxing along our endless ivory beaches, Hilton Head Plaza has that and much more!
In comparison in Chamonix France the self catered chalet is nearly always fine. Furthermore dining out in my preferred French restaurant, City Limits, scoffing golden corral bourbon chicken is a treat. Chamonix Mont Blanc is a large enough place to insure that there is lots of things for the snowboarder to do. Including a sports and swimming complex and a plethora of shops, Chamonix offers a choice of climbing, old town charm and sightseeing which not many resorts can beat.
