Well laid out chalet that had everything we needed including a lovely fireplace. Bedrooms are all a decent size and plenty of bathrooms made life easy when there were few of us staying.
Would recommend if anyone was looking to stay in the area.
Comfortable stay in this charming chalet in a beautiful and quiet location only 15-20 minutes drive from all the nearby lifts. Well equipped kitchen for self-catering, good showers and comfortable beds. Can highly recommend.
Très belle vacances dans un super chalet avec un cadre magnifique, et beaucoup d activités proches .
Super 👍 pas d autres mots , une hôte très sympathique avec beaucoup de sérieux.je recommande le chalet qui est tout confort vraiment bien situé dans un hameau très calme avec beaucoup de charme, de plus juste à côté il y a la ferme de Caly qui vends des produits succulents
Chalet très spacieux et confortable qui nous a permis de vivre de très bons moments en famille mais aussi de trouver du calme quand nous en avions besoin.
L'été, en raison de l'altitude nous n'avons pas souffert de la chaleur. Terrasse agréable. Et les enfants ont pu approfondir leur anglais car les chaînes de télévision sont en anglais.
Ballades et activités à volonté aux alentours
Logement recommandé
Siamo stati nello chalet di Vicky per una settimana e la casa è veramente bellissima.
E' spaziosa, ben organizzata, calda, accogliente e con dei letti comodissimi.
La posizione della casa a noi è piaciuta tanto, a pochi km da Morzine e dalle piste da sci.
E' consigliato avere la macchina per muoversi in totale libertà.
Unico consiglio che posso dare a Vicky è di fare maggiore attenzione alla pulizia negli angoli più nascosti, come dietro la tv o vicino ai divani, per il resto tutto perfetto e assolutamente consigliato!
Grazie Vicky per la tua disponibilità e gentilezza.
Le chalet est très sympa et dispose de toutes les commodites.
Le seul petit reproche c’est le manque de lumière, les éclairages pour le soir sont tamisés. sinon la literie est confortable, il y a une ferme à moins d’un kilomètre, pour assister à la traite et acheter de bons produits laitiers.
Merci aux propriétaire pour leur accueil
Les photos ne sont pas fidèles à l’annonce: le chalet est encore mieux en vrai! Très chaleureux, hyper bien équipé, literie agréable, plusieurs salle de bain, vraiment, rien à dire!
Nous recommandons vivement, même avec des enfants en bas âge. Ce n’est pas indiqué mais il y a un lit bébé (nous avions pris le nôtre). Chalet à proximité immédiate des pistes (10 minutes de Roc d’enfer, 15 minutes des œufs pour Avoriaz).
La communication avec Vicky ainsi que la personne en charge de la location sur place était très fluide. Nous reviendrons volontiers.
Très belle quinzaine en famille passée dans ce superbe chalet, accueillant et très confortable. Le village de Saint Jean d’Aulps est charmant et la vallée est riche en expériences pour les familles. Un grand merci aux propriétaires pour leur accueil chaleureux malgré la distance, et leur hospitalité. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir.
Idéal pour une grande famille avec ses trois salles de bains et ses 4 WC. Propre et très bien entretenu, calme et super cosy avec des lits super confortables et 7 paires de raquettes à neige + bâtons fournis! Il y a aussi de belles ballades à pied depuis le chalet!
Nous avons passe un agréable séjour dans cette location grande et fonctionnelle .Les stations ne sont toute proche même si nous n'avons pas pu skier nous avons trouvé divers activité .
Chalet située dans un environnement calme, avec tout le confort nécessaire pour un séjour familial réussi : promenades à pieds, autour du chalet mais aussi autour du lac de Montriond, dans Morzine..., feu de cheminée et jeux de société en famille étaient au programme de notre séjour, les stations de ski étant fermées en raison de la pandémie.
Le chalet a répondu entièrement à nos attentes. Il est très bien équipé, fonctionnel et cosy.
Nous nous y sommes senti comme chez nous.
La propriétaire est à l'écoute et fait tout pour répondre aux besoins des vacanciers.
Nous sommes donc comblés.
Nous avons passé un bon séjour en famille et découvert une région que nous ne connaissions pas. Chalet spacieux, bien orienté et bien équipé. Propre, literie confortable et changement draps apprécié.
Superbe vue sur la vallée et les montagnes.
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans ce grand chalet de 4 chambres. Nous le recommandons.

Chalet très confortable
Beaux espaces de vie, chalet bien orienté, literie et draps de qualité, bien équipé.
Propre et bien entretenu. Parking facile pour 2 véhicules. Terrasse avec possibilité d'être au soleil ou a l'ombre.
Superbe vue sur la vallée et les montagnes environnante. Boulangerie accessible à pied (2km) et grandes surfaces à peine plus loin.
Seul petit bémol, la route principale n'est pas loin et c'est donc un petit peu bruyant.
Excellente adresse. Nous la recommandons.

Wonderful chalet perfectly located
We had a fabulous ski holiday (with our extended family of all sizes and ages coming and going) in this lovely place. We especially liked; the amazingly comfortable beds, the classic wooden ski chalet feel, the real log fire, the short drive from Geneva airport, being able to easily access (by car & free bus) different parts of the massive Portes du Soleil ski area depending on weather and whim, the wonderful cuisine in the many mountain restaurants, the short walk to St Jean d'Aulps- a friendly village with bars and a Carrefour Express. We would definitely recommend it.

A lovely stay in a lovely chalet
A very pretty chalet in a rustic French village. Nice spacious living area with open fire and well kitted out kitchen. All bedrooms are stylishly decorated and the beds are extremely comfortable!

Excellent chalet
This chalet combines modern conveniences and comfort with traditional charm and cosiness. The bedrooms are all of good size and we found the beds very comfortable. In addition, the kitchen is well equipped with everything we needed for a two week stay. Crucially, there was enough hot water for 5 of us to have hot showers/baths at the end of a days' skiing.
A car is recommended, but the chalet is close to the main road and there's a good-sized supermarket a short drive away.
The hamlet is quiet and the ideal place to get a good night's sleep after a long day on the slopes.
We didn't encounter any problems when making our booking or during our stay.

We have a small property company in the UK and have several years experience of letting property both home and abroad. My architect husband has now retired and we live in Lymington , Hampshire. We have 2 grown up sons and labrador.
Why they chose this property
We chose this lovely chalet having searched around the Morzine area , because we liked the delightful hamlet of Bas Thex. Very importantly for Morzine we are on the sunny side of the valley, as we discovered that the other side is in shade quite a lot of the day. We have wonderful views from the balconies and we are very close to St Jean which is a 10 minute walk, Morzine is a 10 minutes in a car. The rooms are spacious and the chalet has a lot of natural light . it is a traditional design and is well located for ski-ing, mountain biking, walking,rafting and many other activities.
What makes this property unique
The chalet is in a very pretty quiet hamlet with lovely views from the south facing balconies. It is a bonus in the Morzine valley to be on the sunny side ! We are ideally located for exploring the various ski areas, you do need a car to get to the station but the advantage is that one can get to several places easily and vary the skiing .Les Gets, Avoriaz, Morzine, are all accessible as is the whole of the Portes du Soleil region. In the Spring and Summer there are wonderful walks in the area and we are within easy reach of many of the mountain bike trails and mountain treks.
