We are a family group (grandparents, parents and children, 11 and 8). Grandparents have skied in Samoens for 25 years +, rest of the family only once.
The chalet was perfect for us. Spacious and well equipped, with lovely extras such as raclette and fondue equipment that made for lovely family dinners. The ski bus was a couple of minutes walk away but we didn’t use it as the queues were quite long ( it was half term !) . We chose to drive one car to main car park with all kit in top box and then take kids later when queues had died down. It was a safe, gentle walk to the lifts.
Mme Laffont was a very helpful host. We would choose this chalet again.
