About this property

CHALET APARTMENT SAMOENS VILLAGE 5-STAR ECRINS ETOILE C9 625sqm 2BED 2BATH

Property registration nos 74258000278E9
Ecrins Etoile is a chalet apartment. We have decorated to give it alpine charm and taste and make it a real 'home away from home'. The regular Ski Train and Bus stop is only 50m and 150m away just outside the front of Ecrins Etoile, the free and regular buses take you to the Grand Massif ski lift in 2 minutes. The shops are 1 minute walk with a fantastic delicatessen next to the building.
We have fitted it out with top of the range Savoyard furnishings and many local touches to give it a homely feel. There is an extensive range of equipment in this MGM mountain style apartment. This warm and well-equipped apartment offers everything for a comfortable stay for 4 people at any time of the year. The apartment is very quiet and situated on the first floor. On entering there is an area for hanging coats and shelf for shoes underneath. The built-in wardrobe further down the hall offers further storage for coats; also a security safe for valuables. The hall opens out onto a delightful open plan living, kitchen and dining area with sliding doors that open onto a large south and south-west facing wrap-around balcony. There are two double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms one off the hallway and one off the living room. Each bathroom has a sample selection of toiletries. There is also a separate toilet off the hall. For your entertainment there is a flat screen TV (French TV), DVD player, CD player, board games, Playstation 3, and iPod connection. There is also free WiFi access throughout. The kitchen offers excellent facilities for home cooking, such as a large fridge with small freezer compartment, ceramic hob, and full size oven. We also have a NESPRESSO coffee machine with a selection of complimentary capsules. For those of you who enjoy cooking and want to turn your hand to some of the traditional Savoyard dishes there is a fondue and raclette set. The wooden dining table seats 4 comfortably and can extend for an extra 2 people. There is also a small table and chairs on the apartment’s south-west facing balcony which means so you can enjoy al fresco dining in the summer months. Both bedrooms have built in wardrobes that offer plenty of space to unpack and relax.

However, if you feel like going out then within a 2-3 minute walk there are approximately ten restaurants which cover all tastes and budgets. Alternatively, you can pop down to the new Traiteur 'Le Pied de Poule' just on the doorstep offering all types of dishes (one of my favourites is the pate 'Grandmere' ), at reasonable prices .

We also have a ski locker and underground parking which can all be reached by the lift .

Linen and Towels are hired from the concierge. The number of sets are based on the number of people staying . 4 people 4 sets or 2 people 2 sets , this is to help keep the clean costs down.

Wonderful apartment in Samoens
This lovely apartment was so very comfortable and well equipped and in a superb village centre location. It really felt like home from home. A good night’s sleep in comfortable beds made the trip most enjoyable! The walking was superb. I will definitely be booking again.

Lovely apartment in a great location
This lovely apartment is a couple of minutes walk from the village centre and 6-7 minutes walk from the bus stop (to take you to the Grand Massif Express cable car). The property is very quiet (we didn't see another soul in the apartment building during our week) and is really nicely furnished and well equipped. It has everything you'd need for a self catered holiday and is really close to a good choice of restaurants if you want to eat out. I would definitely recommend it and hope to return myself!

Un petit nid savoyard
Appartement très agréable, il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour passer un agréable séjour. Petit bémol, nous avons eu des difficultés pour trouver l'immeuble qui se trouve au fond du parking et malheureusement "Samantha" ne nous a pas été d'un grand secours et c'est dommage (cette personne n'était pas disponible) !!!!!!!!

Our third stay n this delightful apartment which says something in itself. This year we were blessed with a week of sunshine and spring conditions. The whole ambience in the village was lovely and we even found some fabulous new vintage shops. Maybe we’ll try a summer stay next…..but we do love to sk!

Appartement très agréable à Samoëns
Nous avons séjourné une semaine à 4 personnes. L'appartement est très bien équipé, très calme, la literie est de qualité. La parking est un vrai avantage car l'appartement étant situé dans le centre il est compliqué de se garer par ailleurs en haute saison. Tout à été pensé pour que l'arrivée se fasse facilement avec de délicates attentions. Merci aux propriétaires pour le soin apporté à l'organisation de cet appartement.

We had a lovely stay in the flat. Cosy, warm and welcoming at the end of a long day on the slopes. Great location too. Central but very quiet. Easy to park car securely in underground car park. Thoroughly recommended. One tip, we got a locker on the slopes at samoens 1600 through Roland gay ski hire made a big difference not having to lug ski equipment up the slopes every day! Enjoy.

About the host

Host profile image
After enjoying several Winter and Summer breaks in Samoens, we finally bought an apartment for our family holidays. After enjoying several Winter and Summer breaks in Samoens, we finally bought an apartment for our family holidays. We love to ski and enjoy the outdoor pursuits of biking, hiking and swimming in the summer and we are always up for an adventure. If you want to take an adventure with nature, Samoens has everything with the most spectacular scenery on its doorstep, Giffre Valley. it is a truly magical place with a discreet charm, yet unquestionably traditionally French and lovely restaurants.

We wanted to make our apartment a 'real home from home' and we hope you enjoy your holiday here as much as we do.
