Guests who book via the Alps Accommodation website receive a discount of up to 20% on Grand Massif ski passes during most weeks of the season. Better still they are delivered to your property for your arrival! This saves you time and money, as often there can be queues when buying your lift pass from the bottom of the lifts. 

At time of publishing (29/11/2021) a French 'Pass Sanitaire' (health pass) will be required to access the lift network, and we will require confirmation of the 'Pass Sanitaire' before we are able to sell ski passes. More information on how non-French guests can obtain the 'Pass Sanitaire' is on our COVID Page.

However, we will liaise with the lift company (GMDS) on your behalf. In the unlikely event that the Samoens' ski area is open and links to other parts of the Grand Massif are closed, partial refunds cannot be provided on discounted ski passes due to restrictions imposed by GMDS. Alps Accommodation recommends that you have appropriate insurances for such events as lift closures.
