And another thing ....

If you have a mixed group, with some people not being off-piste adrenalin-junkies, then consider a 'spa' resort such as Ovronnaz. There is less ski area but a lot of options for spa activities, and prices aren't in the Lukerbad 5-Star class: these are places for families and locals who like the spa experience. And this applies to La Tzoumaa and Verbier as well - down in the valley are the Bains de Saillon:

one of Switzerland's biggest thermal resorts. Again, addressing the middle-of-the-road and local market rather than the 'luxury-infinity-pool' segment.

Try La Thuile, only 90 mins from Geneva.
I skied Cervinia in December from Geneva and it was two and a half hour drive but very easy as it's very good roads. Champlouc is nearer and is on the wish list too.
When in doubt?....Flat out.

You can use the Aosta Express transfer service from Geneva airport to Courmayeur, La Thuile etc. Only 80 Euros return.
