We loved our stay at Janet’s chalet. It was very warm and cozy, had everything we needed and the most amazing views. There are ski areas very close and Les Houches ski area was perfect for us & kids as beginners. Our kids also had hours of fun on the sleds provided at the chalet! Janet was very responsive to our questions and any issues we had were quickly resolved. Thank you for such an amazing Christmas in the alps!

Très bonne accueil et toutes les informations nous ont été communiquées par la propriétaire. La vue est splendide et le chalet est au pieds des pistes. Et le prix est tout à fait correct. Points positifs : chalet très bien situé et mignon mais il pourrait être plus ordonné. Points à améliorés : le chalet est mal ordonné. Il y des prospectus publicitaires en grand nombre qui sont expirés, dès cassette VHS sur toutes les étagères. Et une télé que nous n’avons pas pu mettre en fonction. Difficile de s’y retrouver avec la vaisselle éparpillée dans des recoins de la salle de bain et d’autres meubles. La salle de bain du bas n’est pas visible dans l’annonce. Elle a une petite douche. Le robinet de la cuisine est mal fixé. Le lave vaisselle ne lave pas bien même si nous la rinçons au préalable. Et pour l’eau chaude ! A 6 c’est un problème. Nous devons prendre une douche extrêmement rapide pour que tout le monde puisse avoir de l’eau chaude. Alors quand on arrive d’une journée de ski c’est fort désagréable. Car c’est un ballon d’eau chaude donc le dernier n’a pas d’eau chaude.
