About this property

Large Family Friendly Chalet With Panoramic Mountain Views

Chalet Le Cretet is located on the edge of the beautiful village of Samoens, in one of the most sought after locations on a south facing hillside with panoramic views of the mountains and the Giffre Valley. From the living room, dinning room, double bedroom and the veranda over there are views of the River Giffre and valley and the mountains to the South, and from the kitchen you have views of L'Aouille du Criou mountain and the the Col de Joux Plane. In fact every room in the chalet has mountain views .
The chalet has a large games room on the lower ground floor with a Pool table, Table Tennis and Foosball/Table Football which makes it great for families.
The lounge and dinning area are open plan with the kitchen just off it.
In winter you can sit in front of an open fire and in Summer you can sit outside and enjoy watching the wildlife or parapents fly past.

Très beau chalet
Nos vacances se sont très bien passées dans votre chalet l’espace jeu a été très apprécié par la famille des tournois de billard ont été organisés ainsi que le babyfoot très bien Autrement mais quelques petites remarques chambre du bas lits superposés bougent beaucoup et l’autre chambre du bas pas de clé pour ouvrir les placards voir l’état des matelas surtout les lits simples Robinet de la cuisine fuit mauvais écoulement des eaux usés du bac à vaisselle s’écoule difficilement Conclusion nous avons passés un agréable séjour et très apprécié par notre famille Salutations Madame et Monsieur Bernier

Wonderful traditional chalet with modern conveniences
The chalet Le Crêtet lives up to its description as a spacious traditional chalet and the kids LOVED it... especially the games room which left us a bit of peace while preparing meals or in the lounge. The chalet is all wood, so creaky, and noise travels. The grassy area outside and views are perfect. Two super bathrooms and three separate toilets. Everything clean except under beds on 4-bunk dormitory. Short walk into Samoëns to get very cheap and handy shuttle buses to a variety of great destinations. It is in easy walking distance of the Base de Loisirs (lakes, big wooded park and water activities). Criticisms: not enough electric plugs, poor lighting in some bedrooms, dud switch in downstairs bedroom. Not really enough space for clothing in some rooms (downstairs double, upstairs double and upstairs 2 singles...) as most cupboards locked. Dining room benches short and easily unbalanced, so people kept falling off the end! Kitchen not really adequate for 16 people (we were 11): fridge space limited, cooker a bit small, oven not hot enough to cook or grill, hob not hot enough to boil large saucepan or fry. Too many saucepans, but only one water jug! TV doesn't work. DVD player does, but bring your own DVDs. Well that said, we really enjoyed our stay and when we left, the kids were all saying goodbye to the chalet as to a friend!

Bon rapport qualité prix
Le chalet est propre, bien situé et l’hôte disponible. Évidemment pour ce prix, il ne faut pas s’arrêter sur les détails. Par exemple le wifi n’a pas fonctionne du séjour et les deux lits superposés étaient inutilisable (réparés en cours de séjour), la fenêtre du salon ferme tres mal. En résumé : on est pas du tout dans le luxe, pas vraiment dans le confort, mais on est quand même pas mal! :) Je recommande à ce prix imbattable.

About the host

Thanks for looking, my name is Peter and I live in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. My family and friends have spent many fantastic holidays here I hope you do too.

Why they chose this property

I visited the area in winter 2003 and fell in love with Samoëns so I returned in the spring and found Chalet Le Cretet. The views are stunning and the short walk in to the village is always a pleasure. Whilst stood on the balcony sharing a beer with my friend he looked out over the valley and said "you've just got to pinch yourself sometimes it's so beautiful" and that just sums it up perfectly for me. The location has fantastic views and the area is stunning.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the charming atmosphere of a very special French, Haute-Savoie mountain village. The games room downstairs is great for inter-family competitions or just relaxing after a days skiing, hiking, walking, sun bathing etc.
