Amazing place

We went 7 couples + 6 children. The chalet is perfect, exactly corresponding to the description. Not a luxurious place but you have no fear of deteriorating. Jenny welcome us and was very reactive to all our needs during our stay. Snow was removed to enable cars to park when we arrived. The chalet was warm and ready to stay. Russell, thanks a lot. For sure we will come again.

A Wonderful Vacation with Friends

My husband, myself, our adult son, and 3 mother couples enjoyed a lovely vacation at Chalet Shiraz. Every couple had their own room with a king size bed (or 2 singles) and an ensuite bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped to accommodate our large group and there was plenty of seating around the dining table as well as on the comfortable living room furniture. The only drawback to Chalet Shiraz is the steep hill up from the main road. We were lucky to have snow on the mountain but no snow on the roads for our stay. Be sure to have chains available if you come by car and bring your best walking shoes for hiking the hill!

This home was absolutely perfect for our week in Les Houches/Chamonix! Russell was an incredible host, so responsive and accommodating. Every question or request we had was answered almost immediately. Clare went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, even bringing extra toys for the children in the group. That level of hospitality made our stay even more enjoyable.We had 14 people in our group : two singles, two couples, and two families traveling with kids. There was the perfect amount of space for everyone. We even hosted another family of 4 for dinner one evening, and there was still plenty of room!The chef’s kitchen was incredible and had everything we needed to prepare meals for a large group. We especially loved gathering around the outdoor patio table for our ‘family’ dinners every evening. Those dinners together, surrounded by the beauty of Mount Blanc, were some of our favorite memories from the trip.Having a private bedroom and bathroom for everyone, plus an additional bathroom, made the house incredibly comfortable for such a large group. There was plenty of room to spread out, so we never felt like we were on top of one another, yet the home still felt cozy, quaint, and welcoming.The location was wonderful as well. There’s a small market just at the bottom of the hill, which was incredibly convenient.The house truly felt like our own little retreat in the mountains. It was the perfect little magical getaway for all of us!

Skivakantie met verschillende gezinnen

We waren met verschillende gezinnen, in totaal 9 volwassenen en 11 kinderen/tieners. Ligging: erg dicht bij de skibus, zowel naar Les Houches (10min op de bus) als naar Chamonix (35min op de bus). Door ging altijd wat gemakkelijker dan terug. Met skibotten en ski’s is de klim wel pittig te noemen (met een snowboard/boots gaat het zeker beter). De chalet ligt in een rustige buurt. De chalet heeft voldoende bedden en badkamers, maar de living/eetkamer en keuken is niet voorzien voor 20 personen, eerder voor 14 We hebben enorm genoten van de sauna en de jacuzzi.

Amazing stay

16 of us have just had a wonderful Christmas at this chalet. There were 8 children (aged 4-11) and 8 adults. There was more than enough space for us all, the rooms were fabulous, with really comfortable beds. The chalet was in the perfect location, near to the bus stop, ski rental shops and super market. We all had the most amazing time. The communication beforehand was prompt and really informative and the help from Claire in resort was useful. We would love to return!!
