We rented Chalet Bleu for most of the 2011/12 ski season. We were living in Geneva just an hour drive away and went up for a weeks holiday and almost every weekend. The chalet is perfect, a real home from home.
The chalet was warm and cosy with a fully equipped kitchen, TV and DVD and WiFi. The beds were comfortable. Overall the chalet does a great job of mixing modern day comforts in a traditional style chalet.
The owners and their caretaker were all very helpful and dealt with any enquiry or request in a friendly quick and efficient manner.
We have a 4 year old daughter and usually drove up to the Chavannes for skiing and sledging and parked at the top (literally a 5 minute drive unless very icy) so we had a base to change boots, put the sledge in etc. The Chavannes is very child friendly with a purpose built childrens / beginners area including magic carpet and an area called le Grand Cry with 3 greens for children. From the Chavannes there is also easy access to blue, red and black runs. A good destination for mixed abilities. The town of les Gets is closeby (5 minutes down the mountain by car). It is a lovely Alpine town with plenty of restaurants, bars and enough shops for all your needs.
I would thoroughly recommend Chalet Bleu for its home comforts, great location and first class owners. Many thanks for a wonderful season. We will be back again!
