Arc 1950-Mont Blanc view in luxury 'Ski-in/Ski-out' resort

This apartment sits within the Manoir Savoie residence in Le Village Arc 1950, a resort offering 5* hotel services. The apartment has recently undergone a full refurbishment and was awarded a 4 Cristaux Paradiski rating. The refurbishment includes a modern kitchen, modern bathrooms, wooden floor with under floor heating throughout. Also decoration throughout and new furniture to create a cosy ski chalet feel.

With views of Mount Blanc the apartment covers 53 square meters over 2 bedrooms (a master double and a second that that be configured as double or twin), 2 bathrooms (one en-suite), a balcony with views of the mountains/bottom end of the village, a fully equipped kitchen and a living/dining area (with sofa bed to sleep 2) allowing it to comfortably sleep 4-6 guests.

Included in the rent you will have bed linen, towels and robes (adults only) provided on arrival as well as an end of stay apartment clean. In the apartment you get Wi-Fi, TV with cable channels in a number of languages, a fully kitted out kitchen (including fridge, oven, hob, microwave, kettle, coffee machine and all the essentials you need). We also have a fondue set for you to use.

The apartment comes with a dedicated ski-locker to store your boots, skis/boards, helmets etc during your stay and as a guest you also benefit from free access to a gym, sauna/jacuzzi and heated outdoor swimming pool within the Manoir Savoie building.

There is a 24-7 reception service for check in/check out and general assistance. Shared laundry facilities are available just outside the apartment as well as secure underground parking (ticket entry - pay on departure system) should you opt to drive here.

What's great about the apartment is that it is super convenient and is less than 1 minute walk to the ski-locker room, from where you can put on your skis and get directly onto the slopes…no walking with equipment needed at all ! Skiing back in the afternoon also couldn't be easier as you ski straight from the slopes, through the village and direct to outside the ski locker room !

If you are using the ski school then the meeting points are a couple of minutes walk into the main square in the village. There are plenty of options for ski equipment-hire and ski-schools (Spirit 1950 and ESF being the main ones) right in the village. Everything you need in the village (bars, restaurants, shops, supermarket, bakery, ski-school, lift passes etc) is within a few minutes walk. There is also a beautiful Deep Nature Spa (charges apply) for if you want to relax, pamper and sooth your aching muscles.

Arc 1950 is linked to Arc 2000 by a very short (couple of minute) ride on the Cabriolet lift so offering further choice in terms of shops, bars, restaurants, 10 pin bowling and other activities. There is also a free shuttle bus that takes you Arc 1800 and Arc 1600. From 1600 there is a funicular that takes you down into the valley town of Bourg St Maurice.

Arc 1950 is a completely pedestrianised village so it is very safe for families. If you have young children there is a creche very close to the apartment should you require. There is also a busy entertainment program offered in the village throughout the season to entertain people of all ages. We even get Santa zip-lining across the roof tops on Christmas eve !

We love it here because with guaranteed snow (70% of slopes above 2000m) and direct access to 425km pistes in the Paradiski area, there is literally something for everyone to have a fantastic ski holiday ! The area offers extensive skiing for all abilities so there is something for everyone. Some of the activities available are - skiing, snowshoeing, paragliding, sledging, snowpark (covering 7.5 hectares), heli-skiing, wellness spa and an Igloo bar (with some impressive ice sculptures) which is well worth a visit.

Also not to be missed...The Aguille Rouge stands at 3,226m and the newly built walkway gives you the chance to take in some impressive 360 panoramic views.
