"Very pleasant chalet, well decorated, well equipped. We enjoyed our stay. What happiness to see all these birds come to eat seeds on the terrace!!!"

Leroux, Apartment Biollet, March 2024

"Absolutely fabulous chalet with everything you could wish for. Brilliant skiing in the area and some great places to eat out. It's a small thing but a real positive to have enough hangers to put all your gear on. Great log fire which creates a really cosy atmosphere. Lovely decor which makes us feel like a cross between fairyland and Christmas!"

Nigel, Apartment Biollet, February/March 2024

"We have had a wonderful week staying in your lovely chalet, such a welcoming place to come back to at the end of a long day and to sit in the hot tub looking at the mountains and looking up at the stars was magical. Thank you!"

Lots to do, including a lovely lake for our daily dip, and great restaurants. We loved the tranquillity of the chalet, especially the terrace, garden and hot tub! Fantastic service from Alps Accommodation and also Gaelle and Graham who managed the accommodation. So wonderful that we extended our holiday by a few more days!"

Bradbury’s, Apartment Biollet, July 2022

"The property was excellent and kitted out with everything we needed. Special mention to Graham & Gaelle, they messaged through the week to check everything was going well and it felt like they would be able to react quickly to any issues (which thankfully didn't arise)...I've stayed in Samoens on numerous occasions and always booked through Alps Accommodation and would highly recommend you. Everything is so straightforward, and any requests are dealt with promptly with minimal fuss and total understanding. Samoens is a great destination and you always feel welcome."

Adam, Apartment Biollet, June 2022

"Our seventh visit to Samoens with Alps Accommodation – another fantastic week – our first at Chalet Biollet. We enjoyed not having to queue for the lifts and the quiet pistes.

About the owner

We purchased the property off-plan in 2009 having skied in Samoens for many years, and we were lucky enough to be able to fit it out for skiers. Often renting apartments in the past we found there was never enough space for hanging ski kit or hooks for clothes, and we installed a real fire and fitted it out as if we live here all the time. We hope you enjoy apartment Biollet as much as we do.
