How should a group decide which family gets which Blue View chalet?
Step one: match each household to a chalet’s maximum
Every chalet’s limit stands on its own, so the first pass is arithmetic. List each household with its exact headcount, then match it to a chalet that holds it: 14 at Aurora, Corona, Luna and Prima; 13 at Omega and Vega; 12 at Stella; 10 at Vista, 44L and Aqua Villa. A household of 15 has to split, and two households of seven can share one chalet.
Do this before anyone falls in love with a particular house. A family that has set its heart on The Luna and turns out to need 15 beds is the argument you are trying to avoid. The side-by-side pairs and trios show which neighbours add up.
Step two: let the Blue View chalet features decide the ties
- Grandparents or anyone avoiding stairs at night: Aurora, with three queens on the main level.
- Toddlers and summer swimmers: the pool end, Aurora, Vista and Omega.
- Babies who nap: a chalet that lists room-darkening shades, such as Vista, Omega, Vega, Luna or Prima.
- Teenagers who will not share: Vista or Stella, for the twin room.
- Skiers who want heat after the hill: Corona or Stella (dry sauna), Luna or Prima (steam).
- Families with a dog: any chalet, one dog standard each; see dogs on a group booking.
Step three: settle who pays for which chalet
Once the houses are assigned, each household can book and pay for its own chalet on its live calendar, or one organizer can book all of them and collect shares. Either way, write the plan down: unit number, household, headcount, cars and dog. If two families want the same chalet and the features do not break the tie, draw lots and give the loser first pick of bedrooms next time. Share the finished plan with everyone at once, so nobody hears about their chalet second-hand. Booking per family covers the payment side.

Should the largest family always get the largest chalet?
Usually, because the maximum decides what fits. A family of 14 can only use Aurora, Corona, Luna or Prima.
Can two small families share one chalet in a multi-chalet group?
Yes, within that chalet’s maximum. Two families of five fit Vista, for example, using its two queens, bunk room and twin room.
What if two families both need a 14-guest chalet?
Four chalets sleep 14: Aurora, Corona, Luna and Prima. Luna and Prima are neighbours, so two families of 14 can sit side by side.
Who should take the chalet furthest from the pool?
Usually a household without young children. Prima, at the far west end, is the furthest from the pool deck.
