Fantastic chalet

Our group of family and friends had a wonderful weekend in the mountains. This house was perfect for our group, with comfy beds and a nice, big gathering area. The hot tub was a hit with the kids. Our hosts were so accommodating and kind. We’d love to come back someday.

As Americans, we had no experience with the area but trusted the exceptional reviews that chalet Marmot has. It was INCREDIBLE.Great views, easy check in process, close to 3 chair lifts for skiing. The chalet could comfortably take 3-4 families and we were happy there with out 2 families.Slightly off the beaten path, this place felt lived in but modern and beautiful, which is exactly what we had hoped for. Although further from an airport you'll have easy access (less than 5 minutes) to downtown Samoens, a large grocery store and restaurants. If your family are avid skiers or just want an authentic French Alps experience, I cant recommend this place enough.

Het verblijf in deze woning was op zich OK. Het is een ruime woning, maar een aantal dingen zijn zwaar verouderd/slecht. De vaatwasser werkte alleen in de drie uur durende eco stand. En dan alleen als je hem na heel veel proberen aan kreeg....De vriezer was niet koud genoeg, waardoor ijs smolt, de wasdroger maakte een vreselijke herrie en was heel oud. Alles bij elkaar wel jammer. De omgeving is prachtig, maar in de zomer zijn helaas maar zeer weinig bergbanen geopend. Wel jammer als je met twee kleine kinderen op vakantie bent.

Gemütliches Chalet

Gemütliches, sehr liebevoll dekoriertes Haus, für eine größere Gruppe perfekt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und haben den Urlaub genossen. Der Whirlpool war leider defekt und konnte trotz Bemühungen der Concierge nicht repariert werden. Wir haben zwar eine Erstattung erhalten, hätten uns aber gewünscht, dass man im Vorfeld die Funktionsfähigkeit gecheckt hätte. Man muss zudem wissen, dass ein Schlafraum im Erdgeschoss keine Fenster hat. Der Skibus ist fußläufig erreichbar, so dass man sich ein ein paar Minuten im Skigebiet befindet. Danke für den tollen Aufenthalt!
