All linens, including towels and bath sheets in the summer for the pool are provided.
During the winter season, its ideal location near three ski-lifts (Samoëns (1.5 km), Vercland (0.8 km) and Morillon (1.5 km)) provides easy and direct access to Flaine Grand Massif ski area (altitude 800-2220 m, 265 km of slopes) and cross-country ski trails along the river Giffre . A shuttle to the ski lifts has a stop 300 meters from the chalet and allows teenagers to be fully independent. At 200 meters from the chalet, Remy will rent you skis.
In the summer, our private heated and secured swimming pool (8x4m) ,will allow you to enjoy the site and the sun with a view on the mountains . Sunbeds are provided, an outdoor table and a gas barbecue allow for meals in the garden.
The possibilities for wonderful walks or cycling / mountain biking are endless nearby. The access to downhill mountain biking trails is easy with Samoens ski lift. Special bikes for downhill sports or just for normal rides can be rented nearby. Guides and maps are available in the Chalet. Many shelters allow for mountain hikes or varied walks, the wonderful site of Sixt is 10 km from the Chalet, and the Chamonix valley is within 40 minutes’ drive.
Samoens is easily accessible by foot, bike - or cross-country skiing in the winter - following the path along the Giffre River. You will find Tennis courts, three small lakes offering opportunities for swimming or fly fishing, a horse-riding center, a mini golf, a ropes course etc available within 2 km.

Good ski trip

Challet is good for a family ski trip. Overall good condition. Everything worked and was along the expectations. Location - having a car is recomended - challet is between two ski gondolas (both more than 1km away). Although there is a ski-bus, we did not visit during high-season and buses did not go as frequently as desired (no buses after 5pm). Samoens or Morillon are the closest areas for groceries, restaurants, etc and both are 1,5-2 km walk - hence logistics can be a challenge.

A Wonderful Stay

We are just back from a wonderful two-week vacation in this beautiful chalet. Coming from a more urban setting, the mountain views from the house are just stunning. Every day something new. We spent our days hiking, cycling, exploring Mont Blanc, Chamonix and Geneva and chilling by the pool. Sheer bliss. The house itself was cozy and although it’s starting to show a bit of wear and tear, it was perfect for us. The only issue we had was with the plethora of flies that came in if you left the windows and doors open. This was quickly resolved with the help of both Sophie and Christine, who ordered two fans to be delivered a few days later which made it possible to close the doors and still stay cool. Sophie, who checked us in, was very helpful and it was comforting to have someone to run questions by during the two weeks.The hostess, Christine, also checked in on us and was very attentive. All in all, we had a wonderful vacation here and highly recommend this accommodation!

Family holiday in Samoëns

Sophie was great. Met us (early) at the property , showed us everything in great detail and offered to be available 24/7 for any questions. Her English is much better than she thinks and she is very well connected in the area. It’s a super-quiet location, 5 mins drive from SamoĂ«ns. Not an easy walk but easy on a bike. Our kids loved the pool. The property feels like a well loved family home. It has everything you need, the beds are comfortable, the views are great and the neighbours are quiet. There were only 4 of us so we were spoiled for space. We went parapenting, rafting, mountain biking, hiking, walking , swam in the lake and went horse riding - all of which were excellent. Although the horse ride was a slow procession. Sophie has lots of suggestions. We were sorry to leave and miss the mountains.

Lovely chalet, high quality finish, proper bathrooms, large rooms, plenty of space.

Came here with family and were very impressed with this chalet, it’s comfortable with lots of space for everyone, and everything worked. We liked the large entrance hall with hanging space for all of our ski gear and shoe racks to keep everything tidy. This theme continued, large lounge, large kitchen, bedrooms a good size. There was plenty of hot water for post skiing showers. Very nice chalet, would come again. We had cars so didn’t need the ski bus. It does come quite close although they are not super frequent, so you would need to keep an eye on the time. By car it’s 5 minutes to any of the 3 local lifts. The Village itself is quite low so we experienced some rain in March, we came in February too (to another accommodation) when it mostly snowed in the village. The large carrefour supermarket is 10 minutes by car and has everything. Morillon is walkable in the evening (20-30 mins).

lovely chalet - a couple of niggles

Generally a really nice place to stay. Roomy, good size bedrooms and well appointed. Plenty of parking and well positioned between Samoens and Morrillon. Owners need to sort out the lack of hot water for a big chalet when everyone wants to shower and the wifi is hit and miss.

Lovely, spacious chalet in a beautiful valley

We are 2 families of 4 and had a wonderful time in this chalet. There is plenty of room in the bedrooms and living areas and a lovely outdoor area for soaking up the sun with a drink after skiing. The chalet was clean with hot showers and all the amenities you could need for a week. The chalet is in a quiet but beautiful location and is only a very short drive to both morillon and samoens for shops, bars, restaurants and ski lifts. My children have already asked if they can stay again! Thank you for a great week.

Chalet au top mais invasion massive de mouches

Le chalet est idĂ©alement situĂ©, avec une vue magnifique et Ă©quipĂ© idĂ©alement pour une grande famille. Nous n'avons manquĂ© de rien, sauf peut-ĂȘtre un 2Ăšme frigo. La piscine chauffĂ©e Ă©tait un gros plus, nous avons pĂ» en profiter chaque jour. Le seul point noir et qui est indĂ©pendant de la volontĂ© des propriĂ©taires est l'invasion massive de mouches interieure et exterieure, ingerable malgrĂ© l'achat de tous les produits existants contre les mouches et la fermeture des fenĂȘtres... comptez environ 30 minutes chaque soir pour s'en dĂ©barrasser dans les chambres avec une tapette... Les propriĂ©taires sont d'une extrĂȘme gentillesse et trĂšs rĂ©actifs, facilement joignables. La conciergerie est Ă©galement trĂšs arrangeante et soucieuse de notre confort. MalgrĂ© les mouches auxquelles nous avons fini par nous accommoder, nous avons passĂ© un trĂšs agrĂ©able sĂ©jour dans ce chalet spacieux, confortable et dĂ©corĂ© avec beaucoup de goĂ»t.
