Well equipped apartment with wonderful views, perfect for skiing in Grand Massif
Situated in the beautiful, award winning (Coq D'Or historical site) Haute Savoie village of Samoens, very near to the Tele-cabin. The balcony has stunning views of the famous Le Criou mountainside. The building is in a traditional French Alpine style with lift access to the apartment. A secure ski locker is provided with the apartment and parking is free outside the main entrance. The apartment is on the 4th floor (there is a lift of course) making for stunning views and far enough away from any noise on the ground. Having said that - Samoens is a very quiet town. As you enter the apartment you will find bunk beds large enough for adults. A bathroom and a kitchen area. The kitchen has everything you require including hob, cooker/microwave and a dishwasher. Upstairs is a double bed and a large corner sofa with flat screen smart TV that plays films saved to a memory (USB) stick or DVDs. There is ample storage space for luggage etc. The view from the balcony down the valley is breathtaking - only surpassed by the view from the Velux window upstairs. Being four floors, the building is taller than those around it and allows you to look down on the town and across to the mountains.

Stay for a month with my family and we had great time. Close to Indian Rocks, but in nice to be in a quiet place. Pool was a great addition espeically since beach had red tide. Loved the two seating areas. Had great time adn would stay here again. Michael, the host always responded ASAP and fixed any issues, which were all small!
We have stayed here for a number of years now. It’s spacious for the two of us and is ideally located for the town and the ski lift.
I noticed this year there wasn’t a dvd player. But 4g is very good so we can usually stream content.
No problems collecting keys and getting our bedding/towels etc
Will stay again.
Located between a boulangerie and a small friendly supermarket, and with parking outside, the apartment was ideal for our needs. There's a great bar on the ground floor of the block, and as advertised, there was no noise issue at all.
Although compact, the apartment had everything for a group of individuals (like ours) or a family. The bunk beds are in the hallway directly outside the toilet and shower, but that wasn't an problem for us.
The view of the mountains from the apartment is beautiful - just what you need to inspire you to get out there for the first lift.
We drove the short distance to the gondola, rather than walk in ski boots, but there's also a bus stop close by.
All in all, great value for money, and would definitely stay here again.
Nous cherchions un appartement près de nos enfants et petits-enfants, ce fut celui-là... Proche du centre et du GME. Bémol le bar et ses mégots situé au rdc
Nous avons passé un bonne semaine dans ce logement. Nous navons manqué de rien, logement bien équipé et bien situé. Trés pratique pour les courses (sherpa à 50m) et arrêt de bus pour rejoindre les remontés mecaniques a 100m.
Appartement astucieusement organisé avec plein de jeux pour enfants. La ville et le lieu sont magnifique pour des vacances d'été à la montagne. Impossible de s ennuyer avec toutes les activités et animations. Je recommande.
Have stayed here for a number of years. The host is always on hand to answer any questions quickly. Key pickup and drop off is easy. Accommodation is ideally located in such a lovely French town.
Appartement très bien situé, très agréable. Propriétaire très sympathique, gestion de l'agence locale au top. Un petit effort sur la propreté et les équipements serait bienvenu ( porte du congélateur cassée, système d'ouverture de la porte donnant sur le balcon à réparer, poêle rouillée, absence de rideau pour les lits superposés etc.)

About the host
Hosted by steve Wood
We live in Hertfordshire with our two children. We love the mountains and wanted a quiet apartment that we could share with our friends and family. We stumbled across the area and realised how perfectly it fit us being avid skiers and snow boarders and great lovers of the outdoors. Once we saw the view from the balcony we were hooked. Our boys have learnt to ski and love the area in winter and summer.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Samoens with its beautiful 14th century church and town square and fantastic restaurants. Samoens is one of the most beautiful ski resorts in Winter. We often head over to the other linked resorts such as Flaine with its acres of powder skiing and rolling blue runs. From there we love to ski "The Cascades" a 14km run, one of the longest in the Alps. Summer brings a mix of exploring the markets and mountains to white water rafting and Via Ferrata (a little like climbing but no experience required). Samoens is a quiet town. There is no night club but some restaurants have live music. A quick hop to Geneva via EasyJet and its just an hour or so by car - either rental a ski transfer service. Samoens has one of the largest beginners areas in the Alps. Perfect for children. There are Conveyor Belts making it much easier to learn to ski or snowboard without worrying about drag lifts to start with.
What makes this property unique
We visit several times a year in winter and summer. Winter provides one of the largest ski areas in France right on the door step with incredible views of Mont Blanc from the top of Flaine. In summer we love the lakes and the river and just walking in the mountains. We always enjoy it and we hope you do too.
