We had a very comfortable stay at Sharon's apartment. All as described with the location to the Charmetogger Lift being the biggest asset of the holiday. A few lazy steps out in the morning and you're there. Fab little ski run back at the end of the day too with plenty of little off piste jumps to play around on (in the woods too!). Then drop off your ski gear and either pop into town (5 - 10 min walk) to enjoy some Apres Ski in the sunshine around Benji's or chill in the sunny apartment. L'Arpette bar on said run provided entertainment for our daughters at the end of the day! We were blessed with gorgeous weather most days - which made a great week of skiing with plenty of touring across to La Plagne and a great variety of runs in Les Arcs all so accessible from here.Bit more snow now in order - would be perfect for the late season. The apartment had all we needed (we didn't cook in too much - as ate lunch in the mountains and generally snacked in eve or headed out a couple of times in Charvet and Villiards for fab Savoyarde style dinners. La Cabane des Neiges was lovely and needed booking ahead. The apartment is very light and you can see the morning sun shine across the valley then onto the Charmetogger lift - letting you know it's time to get ready! Lift opens at 9/9.15. The beds were comfy enough and we found the apartment perfect for 4 - especially in the evenings. As said 6 would be ok too, but 8 very cosy. If room another relaxing chair or if sofa bed had ends/arms would be perfect!
Sharon was there to meet us and told us all we needed to know. Her communication and help before our visit was excellent and we arrived ready with Ski Passes, ski hire booked etc so as soon as we arrived we only had to collect skis. (We used Skiset at Agrille Grive 2 - think we were unlucky with the service as we had trouble trying to communicate an issue with the lack of inner soles in a set of ski boots. The ski gear was ok - can always be better - but guess buying your own does that. Location for collection and return ideal. Might try the one underneath Grive 3 if visiting again). Sharons discount membership was a good saving too.
We ordered ski passes before leaving UK - which can be posted if ordered 2 weeks before or collect at Bourg St. Maurice funicular station to get free trip up the mountain. Where possible use Sharon's discount cards/info - family/student pass discounts to save where you can. I could go on!
We'll be back and will recommend. Thanks Sharon.
