Maybe it's a day off due to bad weather... then why not explore the large sports complex in Méribel at La Chaudanne. Built for the '92 Olympics you will find an ice skating rink (some evenings host ice-hockey matches), a ten pin bowling alley (with other indoor games), a climbing wall, swimming pool complex and sauna/jacuzzi.
The Tourist Office is also located there.

La Folie Douce
Situated half-way up the mountain heading towards Saulire (Courchevel) from Méribel, La Folie Douce can be found on skis or via a pedestrian pass (half way up the Saulire Express bubble).
Open for drinks and lunches, La Folie Douce is famous for its Afternoon Cabaret/Dance shows ... think 'Moulin Rouge meets glitzy ski resort'.
If the weather is good why not book a table for lunch and watch the show.

Jacks Bar
To be found near the main lift area in Méribel Centre (La Chaudanne), Jacks Bar opens throughout the day and into the night.
Whether it's an early morning coffee you are after (a main wake-up haunt for ski instructors ... 😁), a spot for lunch/dinner or a main apres-ski venue you are looking for, Jacks will take care of you. With its sizeable indoors and a large sunny terrace, it will always get livelier during the week with live bands playing from 5pm. On rare occasions, ski instructors perform as part of the bands (Thankfully NOT me 😅)
