About the host
Hosted by Denee and Joss Thompson
La Terrasse has been part of the Thompson family for over a decade, lovingly designed and built by Robert and Caroline in 2007. In 2017, their son Joss and his wife Denee continued the legacy, transforming this stunning apartment into one of the Alps’ best-kept secrets—a true haven for adventurers and families alike.
With a shared passion for snowboarding, mountaineering, climbing, and cycling, the move from Surrey to Samoëns was inevitable for us. In fact, we’ve always felt this picturesque valley was more than a destination—it was home. In 2015, we tied the knot in La Terrasse's beautiful gardens, and by 2017, we made the leap to live here full-time.
Now, as a family of four—Skyelar (6) and Khione (4) keep us on our toes—we’re more committed than ever to sharing the magic of Samoëns with our guests. Whether you’re here for a snow-filled winter escape or a sunny summer retreat, our family-friendly, year-round resort offers something truly special for everyone.
We can’t wait to welcome you to La Terrasse and share the place we’re proud to call home.

The towering peaks, lush forests, and endless opportunities for outdoor adventures make it the perfect playground for mountain lovers like us.
For our family, Samoëns offers the ideal balance of adventure and community. In winter, the Grand Massif ski area provides world-class skiing and snowboarding, while summer transforms the mountains into a haven for hiking, biking, and exploring. Beyond the activities, the warm and welcoming atmosphere of this traditional Savoyard village immediately made us feel at home.
One of the most unique aspects of Samoëns is its year-round appeal. Unlike many Alpine destinations, the village remains vibrant in every season. From its bustling weekly market to its cozy cafés and historic streets, there’s always something to enjoy, whether you're seeking excitement or tranquility.
This area isn’t just where we live—it’s where we’ve built our dreams, raised our family, and created memories that will last a lifetime. We’re excited to share the magic of Samoëns with you and help you create unforgettable moments of your own.
