Comments from Owner Guestbook
1. We've had a lovely time in Chateau d'Oex and thought the apartment was simply wonderful. We would love to make a return visit. 2.Thank you! We had a really great time. The apartment is truly lovely, and it's so easy to find your way around in the village. We also loved the pool. 3. We loved Chateau d'Oex and the apartment - everything was fantastic. Very luxurious. Beautiful countryside, great restaurants. We have already recommended it to our friends.(Mrs. K. Bennett) 4. We absolutely loved the apartment, it was very well equipped and wonderfully spacious. The pool and sauna were superb. We had one lunch sunbathing on the balcony. We loved the views from the apartment - simply stunning! We had stayed in purpose built French resorts a few times and this time I wanted to show the family what a traditional resort was like - it really exceeded my expectations. We skied 5 out of 6 days often in different areas AND we never had to queue for any lifts at all! (S & K G.)
