Spacious Chalet with great views but car is needed to go anywhere
The chalet was lovely, good number and size of rooms, kitchen well equipped for adults and even for kids with plastic tableware. It would have been good to know prior arrival that there is a coffee machine that takes capsules and not only the usual old style coffee maker (we brought our own coffee machine and capsules as we didnt want to risk not having our beloved coffee in the morning.) We liked the 2 living areas, one with the TV, well a small size TV for these days ;-), and the other with fire place. The Jacuzzi was hot all the time and great to unwind in. The bus only goes ones every hour and didn't quite goes to the center which was not very practical with a toddler. So we needed to use the car to get to Morzine, where finding a parking spot was a daily struggle and there were of course traffic jams in peak hours. So if you don't mind taking car everywhere, the chalet is perfect for you! If you would like to just pop into the nearest bakery on foot to pick up a few croissants - you need to look for another place. Overall I rate the chalet well, really good for families or large groups.
Well equiped chalet with beautiful views. We loved the shared pool and our own hot tub was an extra treat. Evenings on the balcony with a glass of wine were perfect. One point-for the summer- the free bus does not run all the way up to the chalet- not a problem for us but could be for others. Toutist information said it was a winter only bus route
We had a nice time, the outside swimming pool was very nice. Only thing we missen was a embrella on the balkony, because it was very hot the days we where in Morzine.
Tom was very helpfull and kind hĂš send us nice info for things to do with the kids.
Nice location but a few things could be improved with the Chalet
Chalet Sauterelle is one half of a double house in a larger complex of several chalets, whirlpool is private, pool is shared with several other properties. On warm days, the chalet got really hot and could do with an air con. Generally well appointed with most of the appliances you would need. Parking is an issue since there is only one allocated parking space (in a property with 4 bedrooms), so you are reliant on neighbours agreeing you can use one of their spaces if you have a second vehicle, or parking a long way away. The whirlpool was clean but the jets didn't work well and probably needs a service. The pool area had no shade areas and was generally in need of a freshen-up (several pool recliners broken, pool need cleaning).
Beautiful apartment with lovely views. However quite far from town with bus that only comes every 30 mins so was a bit tricky with skiis. If snow conditions were better you can get the bus directly to Nyon but otherwise itâs 2 buses to get to the bubbles.
Also bit far without a car to go into town in the eve. But very responsive re communication so great choice for those with a car!
