Please visit the official website www.parkingvaldisere.com - where you can see the map of the car parks and a contact number for advice and pre booking your space.
The car parks that are closest to the Legettaz chalets are : Rond Point des pistes (7 mins walk) although not sure of this is open this year as they are changing things around and then there is Bellevarde (10 mins walk) or the buses can drop you up to the chalets - there is a bus stop conveniently located right by the chalets.
The car parks closest to the Gelinotte are: La Daille outside carpark because it's free and Centre Carpark because it's in the center of Val d'Isere, closest to the hotel and covered so you won't have to dig your car out at the end of the week
There are also four main covered car parks in resort all costing ~ €20 per day or ~ €70-€80 per week and permits of 6-31 days are bookable on-line at www.parkingvaldisere.com from October. Booking is advisable during peak weeks such Christmas, New Year, February half-term and Easter but all parking is free during the summer season.
You will find some additional parking areas dotted around the resort, so to give you your bearings.....as you drive into Val d’Isere the car parks are located as follows:

NOTE : If you park illegally in Val d'Isere the Police Municipal (Traffic Police) will be hot on your tail! You will usually get a warning (yellow ticket) first time round, but if you leave your car somewhere you're not meant to, it is very liable to be towed. Also, if you are parked on the street or in an outdoor parking area, be especially vigilant after a heavy snowfall as the council will put up notices warning when areas are due to be cleared of snow. If you don't move your car in time then you may find that it has been unceremoniously towed away, or more likely, completely boxed in by a 3 foot wall of snow and ice that will take you some time to dig out.
