We had an incredible time staying here. In addition to being walkable to the city center, and having incredible views of both Mont Blanc and the town, the home had an incredible collection of CDâs and provincial books to get to know the area. We felt very lucky to have found and stayed at this gem.
This chalet is just stunning. It has everything you could possibly need. We were 6 adults and 2 children aged 8 and 11. The chalet had the best views of Mont Blanc. So much space and great amenities. 15 walk into town.Great stay
This chalet felt like a home away from home, plenty of space, everything you could need was there and the space felt lived in and welcoming. Great communication in advance so we knew where everything was and the alternative route up was essential given it was heavy snow when some of the group arrived. Straight forward walk to the lifts and town and for the older members of the group we found the number 10 and number 14 buses really helpful (worth downloading the Chamonix App(. Thanks for a great Christmas venue
We stayed with our family of 6 in Pauls house in August. It is a large, attractive and fully equipped house within walking distance of the center and the lift to the Brevent. The photos on the site donât do justice to the beautiful house and its views.
The chalet has loads of space. We were 8 people and the two living spaces meant we never felt cramped. The walk into town was 10 minutes and it was really convienient for the Plan Praz lift which was only 5 minutes alway via a flat walk. The decking was nice to sut out on and the large windows made the most of the views
My husband and I along with my sister-in-law + family stayed for 1 week for UTMB. The large home was a perfect space for all of us - we were able to have a space away for ourselves in the ground floor suite while the kids could have their own spaces in the loft area and rooms. The terrace is absolutely the best part of this home - having a coffee and pastry while watching the sunrise on the mountains is truly an experience we will never forget.
The home is in a quiet neighborhood (which was nice to have a break from the UTMB spectacle). The walk to/from town is not that long however the steep hills coming back do make it challenge (especially with groceries).
The host was very communicative from the beginning and the the check in process was very easy.
My only real complaint is lack of extra supplies. I'm not sure if this is typical with European vacation homes, but there was not extra garbage bags, toilet paper, etc. It just meant we had to buy extra things at the store and bring them back up the hill!
I would definitely recommend this place for large family or multiple families. Be prepared to get some good exercise in!
Great location, well appointed, and plenty of room for a family of 6-8.
We really enjoyed this property and the location is ideal for a 5-10min walk to the Brevent ski area. It is a 15min walk from the city center which made it nice and quiet but close enough to walk down to dinner (though the hill is steep on the way back) The home is nice and has everything you need. We often cooked rather than eat out, and the larger dining table seated all of us comfortably. Having an available (enclosed) garage space was a nice bonus for our car and gear. I would rent this property again!
The views were amazing and Paul (owner) + Nigel (property manager) couldn't have been more helpful throughout.
Loved the chalet too which was perfectly situated - we even became quite accustomed to the hill after a week!
A group of eight stayed at the chalet over February half term. Prior to our stay, Paul responded quickly and thoroughly to any queries we had. We were emailed careful directions to the chalet from the town which became very useful as we arrived following a heavy snowfall.
Once we arrived, we were greeted by Nigel, the property manager, who was exceptional.
The chalet is beautiful, views incredible and every facility we could have hoped for - it truly felt like home for a week.
It is located about a ten minute walk from the main town and bus stops (steep hill included) but is very close to Brevent where you can get a lift up the slopes.
We can not recommend this chalet enough and once again would like to thank you! A fantastic holiday!

I am retired and split my time living in Chamonix and travelling. I love the mountain environment and all the activities you can do there. I am lucky enough to be able to experience such a wonderful and contrasting location.
Chamonix is a wonderful town nestled at the foot of the most dramatic mountain landscape you can imagine. It is not renowned as the mountaineering capital of the world for nothing. It is extremely accessible from Geneva being an hours drive away. And it is centrally located to allow you to visit Italy through the MB tunnel, a short drive through into the Swiss Valais region or out of the Chamonix valley to visit the beautiful Limestone hills and mountains of the Haute Savoie. The area is a playground for climbing, walking, biking, paragliding...or you can just sit back in the sun and take in the peace and quiet of the mountains and enjoy the local food and wine.
The property is just 10-15 minutes walk from the centre of town but it is located in a quiet and authentic quarter of the town. It is situated on a S facing hillside with stunning views across to the world famous Chamonix Aiguilles and Mont Blanc.
In the winter the Brevent ski lift is only a 400m level walk away but you can also visit 3 other ski areas within a few minutes drive, experience the famous off-piste ski down the Vallee Blanche or pop through the Mont Blanc tunnel for some lovely sunny relaxed skiing in Courmayeur.
In summer the town offers something for everyone: for the ambitious there is high level mountaineering but the valley offers beautiful and easily accessible trail walking and running, mtn biking and there are numerous sports activities for the children.
