In Resort Services
The services we provide are numerous and all are centered around making your stay in the valley of Chamonix as smooth and as enjoyable as possible.
Whether you are coming to stay in your own apartment or one you have rented through us, we are willing to provide you with a number of related services that can really assist you in the organization and planning of your holiday. We can advise you on all aspects of your holiday, taking into account your apartment's or chalet's specific needs and it's location within the valley.
Once in the resort we can help with lift passes, ski hire, ski lessons and guides, along with any other requirements you may have.
We provide and organize airport transfers for our clients, either in our own vehicle, or with reputable companies and experienced drivers. Price, and which alternative is used, depends on the number of people to be transported, which airport, the day of the week and the time of the transfer. Evidently packaging your accommodation with transfers enables us to be very competitive. For further information please visit our Transfer page or e-mail us directly with your requirements.
With Geneva international airport a little over an hour away from Chamonix and the quantity and quality of skiing in and around the Valley a car can be a useful addition to your holiday. The alternatives are the municipal bus service and local train lines which are free with your carte d'hote.
Points of interest are that on the French side of Geneva airport car rental tends to be cheaper, however if you use the Swiss auto routes to return to the airport there will inevitably be the Swiss motorway tax to pay (c.44CHF) unless the vehicle already has the valid disc glued to the windscreen. Swiss side rental cars are, generally speaking, already endowed with the Motorway tax disc. All the large rental companies are present in geneva airport.
Check that the vehicle you are renting is equipped with snow tyres and or snow chains if you are visiting during the winter months.
Remember that the speed limits in France are now actively enforced.
We hope this may never become a crucial part of your holiday, but please make sure you are correctly insured for your holiday activity.
A visit to the Compagnie du Mont Blanc lift company web page will probably answers all your questions on this topic. We are available to help you choose the best pass for your requirements and where and how to pick them up without suffering from excessive queueing.
We are accredited to buy your lift passes on your behalf and actively encourage you to take advantage of this uncharged service so that your first days skiing gets off to an efficient start.
Ski, Boots and Snow board Hire:
We have good relations with a number of ski shops around the valley, strategically situated close to the apartments we manage. Using these shops normally entails price benefits for you. We can organize to have skis and boots reserved for your arrival.
One of the easiest ways to progress is a couple of lessons with a qualified instructor, whether individual or as part of a group. We have worked for years with the Ski Sensations école de ski and have had good feedback from clients. One of the reasons we continue to suggest the Ski Sensations team is their general overall control of the english language coupled with their friendly, experienced approach.
The mythic Vallée Blanche off-piste glacier run is best undertaken with the assistance of a Mountain Guide. His experience and knowledge are at your disposal to make for a days skiing to be remembered. The size of the valley and it's location on the edge of so much 'space' (in european terms) means that there are hundreds of superb off piste runs waiting for you to discover.
Ski Sensations or other independent guides are available to show you some of the
best skiing to be had.
A simple effective way of ensuring you find what you need in your apartment on arrival.
Please e-mail us with your requirements.
Save space and hassle. Good quality sheets and towels available for your holiday. Certain apartments have this service already included in the rental price. If not, for a small supplement per person you will find clean bed linen and towels in your apartment on your arrival.
Need some one to keep your apartment clean between your visits? We understand the importance of a clean, well kept apartment, not only for guest satisfaction but also for the general welfare of your holiday home/investment. Please contact us for further information.
When the guests have left we pick up, clean and return your laundry to your apartment.
Need reliable trustworthy up keep of your garden at an affordable price. Please contact us.
This ever growing part of our activity is a direct result of the frustrations felt by numerous clients having difficulty finding tradesmen to do the required work. The diversity of our interventions in property maintenance show the level of commitment we have to fulfilling our clients needs. In recent months for example we have completed roof repairs, installed cables to prevent down pipes from freezing, laid flooring, painted interiors and exteriors, redesigned and decorated an apartment, replaced obsolete windows and doors in a chalet, created cupboards, replaced kitchens and prevented pigeons from accessing loft space.
