Magique !

Toutes les conditions étaient réunies pour passer une semaine au ski en famille (10 personnes). Superbe chalet, super clean à notre arrivée, chambres préparées... Tout est organisé pour un rangement facile. Le spa sur le balcon nous attendait également. Emplacement idéal en forêt mais très près de toutes commodités et pistes de ski. Que du bonheur !

Amazing week in Chalet. Way shorter ride than some others spots in the Alps. I will keep a great souvenir of my week despite an injured knee. With adults and with kids. Instead ok skying I had time to spend at the Chalet : very spacious and conformtable. The jacuzzi after a good day of ski is 👌. Thank you again Quentin

Chalet Milou Morillon

Lovely spacious chalet, really appreciated the multiple bathrooms with two teenage daughters in tow! The chalet was very comfortable with everything we needed and the hosts are very friendly and welcoming with lots of helpful local knowledge. Would definitely recommend. The walk into Morillon isn’t far but If hiring skis, it’s worth finding somewhere that is happy to store them overnight. We ended up driving to the car park near the lift where there was plenty of space.

Wonderful family chalet

We had a fantastic week in this wonderful chalet. It’s a great location tucked away in a peaceful setting with the village in easy walking distance. We never felt short of space and we really enjoyed the hot tub plus bbq’s in the garden. We can highly recommend Chalet Milou.

Hosts were excellent. Property very well equipped .

Hosts very accommodating. Property very clean and comfy. Just 4 of us so more than enough space etc. Lots to do in the area, walking, biking - road or mountain bikes. Lots of activities for kids. Morillon a short walk and Samoens 30 min walk along forest track. (Not ideal walking to Samoens in dark though) Beautiful valley and short drive to Sixt at the end of valley breathtaking. Famous Tour de France routes for those interested -Joux Plane, Col de Ramaz and a 22km climb to Flaine is epic. All good!

Wonderful chalet! Beautiful place in french alps.

We had a wonderful stay in this spacious chalet. We were with three families and still had plenty of room. The children especially enjoyed the hot tub. The chalet is very well equiped, and good service was provided by owner as well as local manager. Would definately recommend the chalet to other families.

Geräumiges, gepflegtes und schön eingerichtetes Chalet am Ortsrand von Morillon

Geräumiges, freundliches, gepflegtes und schön eingerichtetes Chalet am Ortsrand von Morillon mit 6 Schlafräumen mit guten Betten auf zwei Etagen, teilweise mit eigenem Bad; großer gut ausgestatteter Küche, in der mehrere Personen zusammen kochen können; großzügigem Essplatz und gemütlichem Wohnraum mit zwei Sofas, einem Sessel und Kamin. Im Untergeschoss Skiraum mit Skischuhheizung. Ausreichend Parkplätze direkt am Haus. Direkt erreichbarer Ansprechpartner vor Ort (den wir nicht gebraucht haben). Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und das gastfreundliche Ambiente genossen.

Fabulous property

We were a family of 6 adults and one baby staying for 4 nights with a late checkout on the last day allowing us to ski all day and then catch the last flight back to London from Geneva. The two floors of the chalet that we used were very spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is enormous and extremely well equipped which allowed us to cook with ease in the evening. This is a beautiful chalet within walking distance of the town and the lift to Morillon 1100. We would definitely stay again.

A wonderfully relaxing holiday

We had a wonderful time at Chalet Milou. The location is perfect: not too close to the centre of town, but also not too far away. We did not have a car, but managed to walk everywhere (or take the ski bus, with the bus stop being conveniently located at the end of the chalet's driveway). The immediate surroundings are very tranquil and relaxing, with tall trees, views of the mountains and a nearby stream. The kitchen is very well equipped and has everything you might need (even the knives are sharp!). We cooked almost every night and had plenty of space (the kitchen is huge). We particularly liked the Soda Steam :) and the fondue sets. The welcome pack of basics was also very handy after a long journey. The hot tub was wonderful after a long day's skiing and was always lovely and hot. The fire is super big and can really heat the entire chalet! There was a good supply of wood (the logs are huge) and ample kindling. The TV etc are all very good. The chalet was spotless. Morillon is a lovely place and probably the friendliest French resort we have been. It has a butchers, patisserie, a small shop, a few restaurants and a couple of bars. Samoens is also nice and very "upmarket" (as is the area in general). It is a quick bus ride away, although we would recommend a car if you are thinking of frequenting Samoens (evenings especially). The skiing is excellent. Morillon itself has a lot to offer and could keep us happy for the day and Samoens (lots of lovely blues and reds) is next door. The Grande Massif is easily accessible if you want more. Skiing to Flaine is quite straightforward. In summary, we would highly recommend this chalet.

New Year at Chalet Milou

Well, what can I say. We have just had the most fabulous weeks stay at Chalet Milou. We travelled as a Family of 7 (all adults) & 3 dogs and decided to do the drive down from Calais, which took an easy 8 hour's. The Chalet had everything we needed, warm, and stocked with all the home essentials, it was perfect. The Chalet is in an ideal location, about 10 mins (easy walk) to the Gondola in Morillion. We also walked to Samoen's, which took around 30 min (40 easy) in 2 feet of snow!!. The Chalet was roomy, clean and catered for our family perfectly and the hot tub was a welcomed addition after a hard day on the slopes. Big thank you to Fiona & Q who were so pleasant, helpful and easy to deal with. Highly recommended and look forward to booking again in the future. Thank you!!

Beautiful chalet in a fantastic location

We’ve just returned from a wonderful 2 weeks staying in Chalet Milou with our two daughters, 6 and 8. The chalet was clean, spacious and very well equipped and we had a warm welcome from Ruth who showed us round. It was lovely relaxing on the balcony, especially in the hot tub, or playing badminton in the garden. It’s also worth mentioning that the wifi is fantastic! The chalet is in a great location, just on the edge of the village of Morillon with a good selection of restaurants / bars, pharmacy and a fantastic bakery which we could easily walk to in the mornings for fresh bread and croissant. There’s lots to do in the area. In the village of Morillon there is Lac Bleu where there is a small beach and many activities for children. There are many cycling and walking routes from the doorstep and bikes can be hired in Morillon. The nearby town of Samoens has a big supermarket (5 min drive) and lots of lovely shops, bars and restaurants as well as a lake and a swimming pool complex which the kids loved! We had an amazing summer holiday and I would definitely recommend the area and chalet to anyone!

Fantastic chalet in a great location

We stayed with our family (8 adults) in the Chalet Milou, for one week, and had a fabulous holiday there. The chalet was very spacious and was exceptionally well equipped, and the hot tub was wonderful at the end of an active day. Everything we needed was on hand and we cooked most nights in the kitchen. The chalet is in a quiet location, but close to lots of amenities and activities. We especially enjoyed the rafting, leaving from Sixt-Fer à-Cheval, and we also hired mountain bikes and descended down the mountains with a guide. Both were great fun. As you would expect, the scenery was magnificent and we even saw an avalanche whilst out walking. There are lots of walks available in the locality. The village of Morillon is small, but has restaurants and some shops, also the village of Samëon, which is nearby, is full of bars, restaurants and shops. It really had a great atmosphere. A great little place to have a beer at the end of the day. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chalet Milou and would definitely consider going back. Tan and John Forsyth

Spacious, warm chalet in brilliant location

Chalet Milou was a wonderful find for us. The big open plan living area with log fire was a perfect cosy centre for our family. Most days we walked to the Morillon gondola, but some days we took the ski bus from the end of the drive either to the Samoëns or Vercland ski lifts. The chalet is in a lovely quiet area surrounded by garden, trees and a stream. Perfect chalet. Thank you Fiona and Q for a great ‎holiday.

The only chalet we have ever said we'd return to.

A beautiful and well-equipped chalet with plenty of room and a lovely, spacious, inclusive communal dining/kitchen/lounge area really sets this chalet apart. Conveniently located (only 3-4 minute drive from Morillon cable car, bakery, bars, etc) and tucked away, this chalet is the perfect escape for ski/snowboard holidays. The boot room had plenty of space for equipment, coats, helmets, etc with a heated boot rack. The hot tub was such a treat and perfect after a day on the slopes. The kitchen was plenty big enough for cooking and socialising and the chalet really is well-equipped for self-caterers (we were a group of eight). The owners ensured we had starter amounts of tea, cooking oil, herbs, beers, sugar. We were never short of cutlery, crockery or cooking equipment. There was a dishwasher and washing machine (inclusive of dishwasher tablets and detergent), double sinks, lots of fridge/freezer space. The beds were comfortable and extra blankets available in case we were particularly cold (which we weren't as the chalet heating is so efficient). We are not exaggerating when we say we couldn't have asked for anything more. Not ones for spending our precious annual leave on re-visiting places we've already been; this is the only chalet we have said we would definitely return to. The property is clean, warm, comfortable, accommodating and well maintained; Graham and Gaelle were a fantastic help before, during and after our stay. Thank you for playing such a big part in ensuring we had an amazing week, tucked away in the mountain! We had an amazing holiday and a massive part of that was the high quality of our accommodation. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this place to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Fiona & Quentin D'ARCY

Host profile image
We fell in love with the authentic village atmosphere of Morillon many years ago. We have been in the area since 1999, close to the centre, restaurants and lifts. Chalet Milou offers the perfect combination of comfort, tradition, modern comforts, a peaceful location, and proximity to all amenities and lifts.

Why they chose this property

Very large chalet - 200m2, with generous traditional double bedrooms and comfortable living space
Suitable for groups without a car (you can use use the excellent little supermarket in Morillon - village 700m walk).
Easy walk to shops, lifts, bars, restaurants etc
Chalet Milou has ample space to relax in with a large open living area of 55m2. It is impeccably built and decorated to offer you the highest standards of comfort and peace all year round.

What makes this property unique

Chalet Milou is perfect - in a quiet wooded rural surrounding, and yet is just a short walk (700 metres) to the ski lifts, shops, bars and restaurants of Morillon village. There are many winter activities available, with cross country skiing routes just 200m away, and hiking paths through the woods and along the Giffre river starting at our driveway. The chalet is also only 2 km from the beautiful village of Samoëns with its beautiful old pedestrianised centre, boutique shops, restaurants, market, bars etc.
For the summer, the swimming lake ("Lac Bleu"), tennis courts and adventure park of Morillon are within 1 km.
In winter you can easily walk along the flat footpath the 700m to the Morillon ski gondola, or take the car or ski bus to the Samoëns or Vercland high speed new gondolas, each just 2km away. All 3 ski lifts have ample free parking. The ski bus stop is just 50 metres from our door and takes you to any of the 3 different gondolas within 5 minutes (Vercland, Grand Massif Express at Samoëns, or Morillon).
