Chalet apartment in La Giettaz, linked to Megeve ski area.

Lovely, spacious first-floor apartment in la Giettaz, traditionally fitted to a high standard by local craftsmen. Comfortable new beds, plenty of hot water and always cosy and warm. La Giettaz is a real mountain village - not a purpose-built ski resort - nestling in a dramatic setting between its snow-sure north-facing slopes and a national park. The pistes are just 10 minutes from the apartment by free ski bus or there is plenty of parking if you drive. The skiing links with Megeve (Jaillet slopes) and Combloux and La Giettaz has some great off-piste skiing without crowds. Buses link the area with Evasion Mont Blanc and a total skiing area of 450km. The lift passes are great value & the food is reputedly the best in the Alps. Brilliant skiing to suit all abilities, and hardly ever a queue ! In the summer there are numerous walks starting from the apartment and further afield. Other activities are close by.

Notes:

Newly refurbished in Alpine style throughout. The apartment is a lovely home from home with a very well-equipped kitchen for self catering. The village has a small supermarket, 2 bakeries and a delicatessen with tea room and games area. There is an excellent butcher and a bar which does great cocktails. There are 5 restaurants (including hotel restaurants) and some others are a short walk up through the village. There are ski hire shops, one of which also sells clothing, and craft shops. Le Plan, is a small hamlet 3.5 kms away (where the main ski lifts are) has its own restaurants. In the summer there are restaurants open at the Col des Aravis (at 1430 metres) which is short drive.

Guest comments from our visitors book:

Once again enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment. Thanks once again – we love this region. Don and Sylvia Prosser and friends. March 07 We have stayed at many self-catering apartments/chalets/villas. This is easily the best. Exceptionally well equipped, comfortable, well situated. The locals in La Giettaz are friendly and helpful. The slopes at Le Plan had something for everyone. A very enjoyable holiday. We felt at home away from home. Thank you. Will certainly recommend you to our friends. The Adach family Feb 07 Perfect apartment. The place was well equipped and very comfortable. La Giettaz was wonderful with great views, shops and restaurants. The ski bus was a great way to get to the slopes at le Plan. We had a fantastic stay here. Thanks. The Denny and Coffey families Feb 07 Brilliant holiday in a fabulous apartment. Superb evening walk on raquettes to old mountain chalet. Lovely moonlit trek and great ambience. Pat and Steve Boden Feb 07

Skiing Information:

La Giettaz is usually blessed with good snow from the beginning of the season. Its slopes range from fairly easy to very challenging. The views are magnificent and there are some good restaurants for lunch stops. La Giettaz slopes connect with Combloux and Jaillet (part of Megeve) and there are buses which connect across Megeve into the Evasion Mont Blanc area. The slopes are generally not crowded and lift queues are minimal. Lift passes are good value. The ‘Evasion Mont Blanc’ pass costs €166 for 6 days (2007/8) and offers a massive choice to suit all abilities, with over 450 km of skiing. The ‘Jaillet Combloux’ pass costs €116.50 and covers 56 pistes (90 km). Reductions for children up to 15 and adults over 60; under 5s ski free. The local ski school is excellent and teaches in small classes with several instructors speaking good English.

superb place

Review Submitted: June 02, 2008, Date of stay: May, 2008

This place was fabulous. It was in a superb location for summer walking and the views from the balcony were great. The place was very clean, well equipped and maintained. It had everything you could possibly need to make your holiday more than comfortable. It is v handy for the Via Ferrata and just over an hour to Chamonix and all that it offers. There were loads of towels provided and the owners made sure a highchair and cot was available for our 14 month old son at no extra cost.
The place itself was almost shut down in the last week of May, but that didnt matter to seasoned walkers like ourselves. It is a nature lovers paradise and worth another visit !!
