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.

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!

There are over 40 activities on offer including golf, swimming, white water rafting and tennis.
Featured Review
Pierra Menta apartment
Mark,, Cheshire
Review Submitted: February 24, 2008, Date of stay: February, 2008
In February 2008 we stayed in the apartment as a family of 2 adults and 2 children. Upon our arrival we were pleasantly suprised by the good standard of apartment and its excellent location.
I have previously stayed in many ski apartments but this was deceptively spacious, and as it was privately owned was better equipped with home comforts than I have found else where.
The apartment is about 400 meters from the main resort lifts and you only have to walk about 100 metres to a point where you can put on your skis/board and glide down to the lifts.
The resort with its good restuarants and bars was within easy walking distance.
The booking of the apartment was very smooth with the owner providing information on the resort and good directions by all form of transport. We flew to Chambery and hired a car and found it a very easy route to follow.
The price of the partment was very reasonable compared with others specially as we went in the peak time of half term. I was expecting the slopes to be crammed with kids and queues for the lifts, but the exact opposite was in fact the case.
I have no hesitation in recomending this apartment and we may look to book again in the low season as 2 couples for a cheap weeks skiing
Owner's response:
Delighted to read that Mark so enjoyed the property and we look forward to welcoming him and his family back some time in the future.
