Le chalet est magnifique, très grand et super bien équipé. Il est situé idéalement, tout en haut de la station de ski, à 5-10min de la boulangerie, du centre de la station et de l'accés aux telemix Drouvet, Rocherousse...L'hôte est très réactive aux messages et cherche très rapidement une solution si nous rencontrons un petit soucis.La vue est exceptionnelle. Nous en avons pris plein les yeux.Merci pour ce magnifique séjour.

Séjour à ORCIERES MERLETTE juillet 2023

Famille composée de 5 personnes (enfants de 11, 13 et 15 ans) et un chien, la localisation du chalet en bord de station à 50m du départ des randonnées était parfaite. Le chalet est au calme mais reste à proximité des commerces accessibles à pied. Le bien en lui même composé de 4 chambres dont 3 au sous sol et 1 au rez de chaussée nous permettait d'avoir chacun notre chambre. Une grande pièce à vivre composée d'un salon salle à manger donnant sur le grand balcon permet d'avoir une magnifique vue sur les sommets alentours. L'équipement du logement est premium avec frigo américain, lave linge et sèche linge... Un petit bémol pour la TV du salon dont la connexion n'est pas optimale ce qui rend difficile son utilisation...mais nous n'étions pas là pour regarder la télé donc cela ne nous a pas déranger plus que cela. L’accueil et le départ est assuré par un prestataire de service très agréable et qui n'hésite pas à s'adapter à la demande des locataires. En synthèse, excellent séjour dans cette station des Alpes du sud que nous ne connaissions pas. Je recommande vivement ce bien pour passer de très bonnes vacances.
