The big departure is just around the corner!
To ensure the start of your mountain holiday is pure pleasure and that reaching your Cosyarc accommodation is completely stress-free, here is our expert advice for a smooth arrival and hassle-free parking in Arc 1800.
☀️ Great news for the summer season!
If you are visiting us during the summer, you can forget all about booking constraints: parking is entirely free in Arc 1800 during the summer months! You can park freely throughout the resort to enjoy hikes and activities with total peace of mind.
The advice below therefore applies mainly to the winter season, when planning ahead is essential.
The heart of Arc 1800 is entirely pedestrianised. This is wonderful once you are here, allowing you to stroll with your family or ski right back to your doorstep. However, it does require a little organization on your arrival day, as parking spaces fill up very quickly during peak season. Our top tip as locals is simple: don’t wait until you reach the resort to think about it.
Covered & Reservable Car Parks (The Convenient Choice)
To keep your car sheltered from the frost and guarantee a space before you even hit the road, we highly recommend aiming for these indoor car parks:
The Charvet Car Park — Q-Park Arc 1800 P1 (Covered):
This is the ideal and closest option for guests staying in the Charvet district who want indoor parking. It protects your vehicle from the winter weather and saves you from shovelling snow on departure morning.
📍 Address: Impasse de l'Hôtel du Golf, 73700 Bourg-Saint-Maurice
🎟️ Click here to book your space on the official Q-Park website (remember to book several weeks in advance during peak season).
The Charmettoger Car Park (Covered): Located a little further away, this car park is an excellent option if you are travelling with a large SUV, a van, or a bulky roof box. It features a maximum clearance height of 2.30m (compared to under 2 meters for most other indoor car parks).
🌤️ Outdoor Alternatives (Ideal for the Bellecôte or Last-Minute Parking)
If you prefer open-air parking, or if the indoor options are fully booked, two choices are available:
The Croisette Car Park (Outdoor): Located just below the resort, this is an excellent alternative! It is particularly convenient if you are staying in our Bellecôte apartment. From this car park, a public lift takes you directly up to the heart of the Charvet area, saving you from carrying your luggage uphill.
The Lauzières Car Park (Outdoor): Located right next to the Lauzières residence, this is an ultra-close solution. Please note, however, that online booking is not available for this car park.
⚠️ The Villards Car Park (Covered): Please note that this car park is currently closed. Do not attempt to park there.
🧳 The 3-Step Arrival Routine
The Drop-Off Area in front of the Bellecôte residence: No need to carry your suitcases for hundreds of meters through the resort. Drive right up to the foot of your residence to stop in the temporary unloading zones.
Unloading: Unload your boot stress-free, bring your luggage inside, and get your family settled into the apartment.
Parking: Once the car is empty, the driver takes the vehicle to its parking spot for the week (either the pre-booked Q-Park Charvet P1 covered car park, the Croisette car park via the lift, or the Lauzières car park).
