Our Chalet is built in traditional Savoyard style with a breathtaking and one of a kind view on the Criou moutain. Located in the municipality of Samoens in the hamlet of Etelley the chalet is in a quiet place 2 km from the centers of Samoens and of Morillon. Marvel Chalet (Marvel is the name of the green slope on which all the locals learn to ski ) includes 5 bedrooms and a mezzanine that can comfortably accommodate up to 14 people . It includes 1 bedroom with a double bed and a bathroom, 1 double bedroom sharing a bathroom with another bedroom with 2 beds, 1 bedroom with 2 single beds and 1 bedroom with 4 beds (1 single bed, 2 bunk beds and 1 extra bed) with an ensuite bathroom and a mezzanine with two single beds. All rooms are spacious with large closets. The dining room’s table is expandable and big enough to allow for 14 person to enjoy a meal. The chalet has a large fully equipped kitchen open on a spacious living room. Being roomy and very light, the living room offers beautiful volumes with a height of 5 m under ceiling. The Chalet is nicely decorated in local style and cosy. 3 large balconies allow you to enjoy the view on the surrounding mountains. The chalet is equipped just like our home: TV, games, DVDs, books, Wi-Fi , IPhone compatible speakers , oven and microwave, dishwasher, tumble dryer, washing machine, barbecue , coffee machines etc . All linens, including towels and bath sheets in the summer for the pool are provided. During the winter season, its ideal location near three ski-lifts (Samoëns (1.5 km), Vercland (0.8 km) and Morillon (1.5 km)) provides easy and direct access to Flaine Grand Massif ski area (altitude 800-2220 m, 265 km of slopes) and cross-country ski trails along the river Giffre . A shuttle to the ski lifts has a stop 300 meters from the chalet and allows teenagers to be fully independent. At 200 meters from the chalet, Remy will rent you skis. In the summer, our private heated and secured swimming pool (8x4m) ,will allow you to enjoy the site and the sun with a view on the mountains . Sunbeds are provided, an outdoor table and a gas barbecue allow for meals in the garden. The possibilities for wonderful walks or cycling / mountain biking are endless nearby. The access to downhill mountain biking trails is easy with Samoens ski lift. Special bikes for downhill sports or just for normal rides can be rented nearby. Guides and maps are available in the Chalet. Many shelters allow for mountain hikes or varied walks, the wonderful site of Sixt is 10 km from the Chalet, and the Chamonix valley is within 40 minutes’ drive. Samoens is easily accessible by foot, bike - or cross-country skiing in the winter - following the path along the Giffre River. You will find Tennis courts, three small lakes offering opportunities for swimming or fly fishing, a horse-riding center, a mini golf, a ropes course etc available within 2 km.

Lovely homely chalet. Great to have the pool too. Short walk to shops and restaurants in Morillon and the area full of activities.
We all had a great time
Fantastic first ski holiday chalet very nice warm and comfortable with everything that you would need ...host were very good and fixed the oven issue as soon as they could.
Will definitely be returning next year and recommend the place to friends and family
Challet is good for a family ski trip. Overall good condition. Everything worked and was along the expectations.
Location - having a car is recomended - challet is between two ski gondolas (both more than 1km away). Although there is a ski-bus, we did not visit during high-season and buses did not go as frequently as desired (no buses after 5pm). Samoens or Morillon are the closest areas for groceries, restaurants, etc and both are 1,5-2 km walk - hence logistics can be a challenge.
We had a wonderful summer stay at Chalet Marvel. The scenery is beautiful and the house very well equipped. Nearby towns have great facilities and lots of activities on offer. Communication with the host and on site contact was very good. Would highly recommend.
Generally a really nice place to stay. Roomy, good size bedrooms and well appointed. Plenty of parking and well positioned between Samoens and Morrillon. Owners need to sort out the lack of hot water for a big chalet when everyone wants to shower and the wifi is hit and miss.
Grand chalet, bien situé, avec toutes les commodités.Propriétaires accueillants et bienveillants.J’ai passé une semaine à 10 adultes et 3 enfants de 2 ans à 5 ans.Toute la famille a apprécié ce séjour. Je recommande ce lieu.
Chalet très propre et vraiment spacieux, idéal pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis. Il est parfaitement équipé : lave-linge, sèche-linge, deux cafetières, appareil à raclette, appareil à fondue… tout est prévu, il ne manque rien !L’emplacement est également très pratique : à seulement 4 minutes des œufs du Vercland, avec un grand parking gratuit, et à 5 minutes des commerces de proximité.Seul petit bémol : l’entrée du chalet n’avait pas été déneigée à notre arrivée et était verglacée, alors que la partie jumelée, elle, l’était.Malgré cela, nous avons passé un très bon séjour et recommandons ce chalet
Le chalet est idéalement situé, avec une vue magnifique et équipé idéalement pour une grande famille. Nous n'avons manqué de rien, sauf peut-être un 2ème frigo. La piscine chauffée était un gros plus, nous avons pû en profiter chaque jour. Le seul point noir et qui est indépendant de la volonté des propriétaires est l'invasion massive de mouches interieure et exterieure, ingerable malgré l'achat de tous les produits existants contre les mouches et la fermeture des fenêtres... comptez environ 30 minutes chaque soir pour s'en débarrasser dans les chambres avec une tapette... Les propriétaires sont d'une extrême gentillesse et très réactifs, facilement joignables. La conciergerie est également très arrangeante et soucieuse de notre confort. Malgré les mouches auxquelles nous avons fini par nous accommoder, nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce chalet spacieux, confortable et décoré avec beaucoup de goût.
Le chalet Marvel est bien agréable: une grande pièce à vivre vitrée, chaleureuse, des jolies chambres bien aménagées, une grande cuisine où rien ne manque, des décorations de Noël bienvenues. Le calme environnant et la proximité des pistes de ski ont été très appréciés!Le seul bémol qui nous a gêné: une chambre borgne sans fenêtres au rez-de-chaussé, à côté du local à ski, sur laquelle nous comptions pour un couple. A deux, dans un espace cloisonné, cela nous a posé problème. Mis à part cette insatisfaction, notre séjour s'est très bien déroulé et nous en remercions nos hôtes.
Séjour entre amis, tout s'est très bien passé, le gîte correspondait parfaitement à la description, les informations communiquées par étaient claires et précises et nous avons été bien accueillis à notre arrivée
Nous avons passé une très belle semaine en famille pour notre anniversaire de mariage.
Beau chalet, bien équipé avec des hôtes sympa.
On a fait du ski, de la luge, des raquettes et des balades.
Nous recommandons vivement ce chalet.
Trouver mieux serait difficile
Accueilli par Sophie qui s’est pliée en quatre pour tout nous expliquer ainsi que toutes les attractions possibles dans la région
Disponible au moindre soucis
Le chalet est parfait,très spacieux confortable,très propre ,l’extérieur grande terrasse et le plus grande piscine chauffée
Coin très tranquille à proximité de toutes commodités
Une réunion de famille qui pour nous restera gravée
Je recommande
Et merci encore Sophie pour votre disponibilité
De communicatie met de eigenaar was duidelijk en op tijd. Inchecken en contact tijdens ons verblijf was prima. Heel fijne vakantiewoning mét groot zwembad, die gelukkig ook gesloten kon worden zodat onze kinderen er niet op eigen houtje in konden springen.
