Rental rates for the apartment in Les Arcs, France

^*Please Note: The owner of this property accepts payment in the original currency specified, before use of conversion tool. The conversion tool is provided for your convenience only. The owner may accept other currencies if specifically agreed in advance.

Notes to the rental rates

• These costs are for the apartment and include all power, heating and hot water. Sometimes we can accommodate guests for longer than a week (eg ten days) in which case we merely charge pro-rata to the published rates.
  
• The rental rates reflect the fact that we expect our guests to clean the apartment at the end of their stay. We do NOT employ professional cleaners as in our experience, the cleaning is often below standard. Therefore, cleaning at the end of your stay is essential as the apartment must be left in the condition you would expect to find it.
  
• If the booking is made more than 6 weeks in advance of rental period a deposit of 25% of rent will be required. Within six weeks of departure the full rental is payable plus a key/security deposit of £100 for each letting that will be repaid upon return of the key and confirmation of no breakages. If any item is broken we expect it to be replaced at the resort but if this is not possible an agreed sum will be deducted from your security deposit.
  The apartment is a no smoking/no pets area.

Trains run from the UK direct to Bourg St Maurice from where you can either take a taxi or the funicular railway up the mountain. The resort is served by Lyon, Grenoble, Chambery or Geneva airports. The airport websites will give details of onward transfers to Les Arcs.

From there a short walk and one flights of stairs takes you to the snow. After a gentle downhill glide, a six man chairlift will take you further up the mountain. At the end of the day you are able to ski back to where you started in the morning, conditions permitting. Les Arcs comprises of four centres 1600, 1800, 1950 and 2000. All centres are interlinked by an efficient lift system that can carry over 85000 people per hour. There are over 121 ski runs measuring over 200 kms. In addition, there is a gondola link to La Plagne and the 'Paradiski' ski pass covers over 400 kms of marked pistes, surely enough for anyone! SUMMER - In July and August a number of ski lifts operate to take walkers and cyclists up the mountains. There are over 40 activities on offer including golf, swimming, white water rafting and tennis.
