The photos for this property need updating. It does not overlook a green hill, it overlooks a large abandoned building site, directly below the chalet. The property is very tired, the beds, particularly the metal bunk beds, made so much noise we could only have people sleeping on the bottom bunks. The house itself is extremely noisy/creaky and you can hear EVERY movement, throughout the house at all times, especially at night. The wifi signal is extremely weak/does not work and there is very limited phone signal, meaning any work had to be done from the middle of town, not from the property. It was not possible to stream anything, even music. Only one source of hot water can be used at a time, i.e. you can’t have two showers running. On the plus side, the location was good, walking distance from the town centre and the swimming lake and there were amazing views up and down the valley.

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!

Plenty of room in the Chalet for our group and nice to have the games room as well, not something we've had before. The location suited us well, we could walk into the village each evening for a meal (15-20min) with plenty of restaurants to choose from and just a short drive to the ski lift with free parking.
You will need your own car and the Chalet is an older one but that was reflected in the listing just don't expect it to be brand new

We had a wonderful time during our stay in Samoens. The house was very spacious, with good sleeping places for all and the garden was excellent for breakfast and diner. We and our 5 children especially liked the playroom. We had much fun with the pool-table and the table-tennis.
The surroundings were perfect for many beautifull walks. Easy going and more challenging. Samoens centre is small, but lovely, with several restaurants and a nice village square. The swimmingpool on walking distance was nice.
The house and the location is really to be recommended!

We, 3 families spent a week in the chalet. It is really spacious and the game-room is great, all of us had fun spending time there, as the weather for skiing wasn‘t the best.
The only negative point was the cleanliness of the chalet. The cleaning lady just arrived at the check-in time and did a very quick clean, which wasn‘t very satisfying. It probably was because of the holiday season, as she had lots of houses to clean that day. But we had a great time, enough space for all and enjoyed the house, as skiing was limited due to the weather. It‘s a 15 minute walk to the cosy town center, cute little shops, a good bakery and a lovely ice-rink. So perfect for large groups or 2-3 families.

We had a great stay here. It was everything we had hoped for and the online listing is very accurate. For our children aged 7 to 17 the games room was brilliant. No boredom. There was plenty of space for 16 of us. Plenty of toilets and nice rooms.
We were skiing in UK and French February half term and whilst it was busy the lift waits were shorter than I've experienced elsewhere. The village is beautiful and about 8 minutes walk away. Bus to the Gondola less than 5 minutes walk.

The property served us well for our big family/friends group over Christmas 2019. Lots of space for everyone. Santa also found our Granddaughters too.

On arrival we communicated with the local contact who was immediately available. Access to the property was immediate and there was ample bed and living space for the 15 of us. The drying room was just the job, views were fabulous, neighbours were lovely and communication from the owner was simply outstanding, right from pre-booking enquiry to post stay. (The communication makes it so much more enjoyable as any uncertainty can taint a holiday). Thank you, Peter! A real bonus to this property is the games room. A good table tennis table, fusball and a level pool table. There is plenty of elbow (cueing room) which wasn't obvious from the picture, and we used the room every day. The children (including those in their 30's, 40's and 60's absolutely loved it :-) ).

We highly enjoyed staying in the house. Nice view. Our kids loved the room with the table tennis, „Tischkicker“ and the Billard table.

Fantastic opportunity to stay in a chalet that is so well equipped making for a fantastic and relaxing stay. Loved the summer alpine experience and the insight into fabulous rural France. With a sunny balcony, access to beautiful walks and loads of activities we hardly needed our vehicle. Highly recommend Samoens and this chalet.
