Apartment was great, loads of living space, fantastic showers, great under-floor heating. The last run down each night on Piste de l'Ours was always something to look forward to - it's up there in my top 3 favourite runs - as is the black running down the Thyon side - absolutely glorious! Many thanks for helping make a great holiday. Mr M in Feb.
A great ski week - superb weather and powder snow - blue skies. Apartment very comfortable and well equipped. What a view!!!! For adventurous skiers the run from the top of the Greppon Blanc over the back to Eteygeon is a classic! The C family in Jan.

Thank you for providing excellent customer service and being happy to answer all my questions and queries. We had an amazing time and would thoroughly recommend your property to others.

Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We fell in love with our apartment the moment we walked into the lounge. WOW! What a view from our balcony! It is stunning, awesome, breathtaking, indescribable by day & at night, every night feels as special as Christmas Eve -even in the summer- because the lights on Nendaz mountain twinkle making it look like one big christmas tree.
The village is charming & unspoilt; uncommercial yet with all the restaurants and shops you need. All the villagers are friendly & most speak english.
The skiing is FANTASTIC! Over 400kms. Brilliant for all abilities. Excellent ski school.
In summer the mountain paths and bisses are wonderful to walk or bike along.
We have skied and travelled in many alpine resorts worldwide & Veysonnaz definitely has the best of everything.
Unique benefits of the property
