“Compact apartment in a great ski location”

The location is fantastic, bottom of Plagne Soleil, right on the edge of the slope, in front of the ski school, with a few shops and restaurants around. Compact apartment as expected but clean, warm and plenty of hot water. WiFi was included. Ben's bus dropped us right outside the door. There was a… more

The location is fantastic, bottom of Plagne Soleil, right on the edge of the slope, in front of the ski school, with a few shops and restaurants around. Compact apartment as expected but clean, warm and plenty of hot water. WiFi was included. Ben's bus dropped us right outside the door. There was a microwave, 4 ring hob, (pots & pans etc) coffee machine and kettle (no oven) Not so good points... Check in took ages and it really didn't need to. Check the inventory and condition form carefully Ski locker room was bit of a mess and didn't dry out overnight Not much storage space in apartment (where do you put those suitcases?) Had to clean apartment when leaving but no cleaning stuff supplied (bleach, washing up liquid, sponge, tea towel etc) only mop, bucket, broom and dustpan & brush. Take some toilet roll!

“Why the bad reviews? ”

Having stayed on other Accomodation both in Soleil and others, I can say that this is nothing different from any other ski-in ski-out residences.

Having stayed on other Accomodation both in Soleil and others, I can say that this is nothing different from any other ski-in ski-out residences. The worst part of our holiday was reading the reviews below which are shocking and don’t represent the place at all. We had a great week. The boss lady on reception is just French! If you smile and say thank you, she will talk in English and is actually a lovely person. The rooms are not new but they function. No privacy in the rooms for 6. But again, for the price you pay it’s what you get. Do pay the deposit in cash and make sure they inspect your rooms on departure. The only minor issue is you cannot wear boots inside and you need to wear shoes to the locker room each day. The best thing - the WiFi was so good (and free) that we could even watch streamed football games, whereas in the Mont Soleil next door it was shocking. We will happily book again.

“Good ski apartment right on the slopes”

Basic but clean apartment ideal for family. Not large and storage space limited, but that's normal for a ski apartment. Lovely and warm, comfy mattresses and reasonably well equipped kitchen. Note: sheets provided but no towels, cleaning products or condiments. No oven and no usable grill in the co… more

Basic but clean apartment ideal for family. Not large and storage space limited, but that's normal for a ski apartment. Lovely and warm, comfy mattresses and reasonably well equipped kitchen. Note: sheets provided but no towels, cleaning products or condiments. No oven and no usable grill in the combo microwave. Location great with an easy ski into or out from the ski lockers. 3 restaurants and a Spar shop within a very short walk. The staff were friendly and helpful.
