Great ski-in-ski-out location with west-facing balcony overlooking the pistes
A really high quality apartment, fully equipped with very decent equipment and a comfortable double bed.
The location is ideal - you leave the apartment, walk up ten steps, and arrive just next to the piste that takes you down to the main Planchamp lift in about 60 seconds.
In the evenings, walking down to the town centre from the apartment takes about 5 minutes. Coming back takes a little longer, up the steep hill and steps, but you could take the free shuttle further up the hill and then walk back down.
The apartment has attractive wooden flooring and the usual Savoie style of decor without being at all tacky or over the top, and the window and balcony provide an addictive view of skiers descending the Planchamp piste just 25 metres away, while the rapid ten-seater ski lift glides past silently. (The engine room for this telecabine is located at the top end of the lift, so there is no noisy equipment in the town).
The balcony also has a door into the bedroom, and this would be a great apartment for a summer vacation too.
We opted to rent sheets and towels and have the beds made up before our arrival, at a cost of 50 euros.
It's all generously equipped, with a washing machine and a dishwasher, two coffee machines (filter and capsule), raclette, plenty of cutlery, sharp kitchen knives, salad spinner -there's even an oyster knife.
And for a quiet night in, there is a smart TV - so you can log in to your Netflix or whatever streaming account you have.
