Sainte-Foy, the resort
Sainte-Foy is a true Alpine village, off the main road from Bourg St Maurice to Val d'Isère. It is less than half an hour's drive from three of the finest ski areas in France - Val d'Isère, Tignes, La Plagne and Les Arcs - yet it feels a million miles from the hustle and bustle of the big resorts and has enough skiing of it's own to keep an advanced skier happy and offers unlimited and varied off-Piste skiing in a beautiful un spoilt wilderness. In the evenings, Sainte-Foy is perfect for unwinding from a long day on the slopes with  some nice places for drinks and dinner and an authentic French village ambience.
Sainte Foy has been going through a period of developement, with many more chalets and apartments having been built, with more to come. New bars, restaurants and shops have opened. New pistes have been created, snow canon installed and for next season (2007) a new ski lift. Sainte Foy is being developed as a luxury ski resort and has avoided the usual concrete eyesore that many French ski resorts became. Sainte Foy is a beautiful ski resort with traditional  Savoyard, timber and stone buildings, both old and new and thanks to the building rules this is how it will continue.
It is an excellent investment as this is very much an all-year round resort with many facilities in summer  like hiking, climbing, white-water rafting, swimming, horse riding, tennis in Sainte Foix, glacier skiing in Tignes (14 miles), golf, etc.

Ski area
Skiers, boarders and telemarkers alike will revel in the powder just yards from the pistes or amongst the trees, which lasts for days thanks to its north-west facing slopes.
The pistes are beautifully and lovingly prepared and remain in top condition all day long due to the lack of crowds. The lower slopes offer wonderful sweeping runs through the trees while the upper slopes provide truly breathtaking descents. You can explore tree-lined greens, gentle blues, wide and fast reds and challenging blacks. For beginners, the resort also has adult and children's nursery slopes.

Located just a few yards from the town facilities, the pistes run from 1550m to 2620m with the north-west facing slopes enjoying excellent snow throughout the winter.
Furthermore you are only a few miles from Tignes, Val d'Isere and Les Arcs with even glacier skiing in summer.

Access
By plane to Geneva, Chambery, Grenoble or Lyon airports with many routes from UK and Ireland including low-costs
By train to Bourg Saint Maurice by  TGV trains including the famous ski train from London

"Sainte Foy is located close to the Italian border and as well as having its own little known and uncrowded ski area, is an excellent base for those with a car to visit some of France's classic ski areas, within a thirty minute drive, including Val d'Isere, Tignes and les Arcs as well as the cross border French/Italian region of La Rosiere/La Thuile.   It's also more affordable than most of these giant resorts surrounding it, with the local lift ticket (and everything else) far cheaper than most of its neighbours.
Although more of the big operators are showing an interest in St Foy the resort so far remains remarkably unspoilt and has preserved its authentic charm and local architecture."
