Samoens is a beautiful village and we were so glad we chose it for our 12 night stay in the Haute-Savoie area. The apartment was comfortable, nicely decorated and big enough for my husband, myself, and our 2 sons (aged 17 and 13). There was plenty of kitchen equipment, crockery, towels etc., and it was convenient using the washing machine and dishwasher during our stay. There are plenty of choices for food in the village, which is only a 10 minute walk from the accommodation. There is lots to do in and around Samoens, and we also ventured further afield to make the most of our time away. My only suggestion for improvement (and this is not a complaint) would be to provide some shade for the balcony, which is a real sun trap. It was very hot and sunny for most of our stay, but sometimes we wanted to sit on the balcony without the sun beating down on us. A parasol or awning would have been perfect in this regard. Overall, we had a fabulous holiday and felt very sad to leave.
