Great Chalet
This chalet was perfect for us, we were 4 children and 4 adults. The property was really well equipped, the kitchen had everything you could need. The owner is so helpful, she helped with our ski hire, gave recommendations of where to ski, ski schools and general information on the area. The resort was perfect for children learning to ski, the ski instructors (ESF) were great. It’s a lovely little resort. There wasn’t masses of snow whilst we were there, perfect for the lessons but we headed to Châtel (5mins away) for the afternoons and the skiing was great there.

Fantastic home from home
We had an absolutely delightful 2 weeks during August in this lovely chalet. It felt like a home rather than 'just another rental property'. Well-furnished and obviously loved by the owners with all the day-to-day appliances and utensils you might need. All the bedrooms were a decent size with two having wonderful south-facing balcony views across the valley and to the mountains in the east. The sitting/dining/kitchen space was great with plenty of seating space for everyone around both the dining table and TV/Fireplace and with great access to the south-facing balcony and patio with 2 outdoor seating/dining spaces, one in the shade (west) and another in the sun (east). A supermarket is just a short drive away and there are plenty of places to eat out just a short walk down the hill. There is no shortage of wonderful walks/hikes for all abilities directly from the chalet or within a half-hour drive. We loved the chalet and Irene (the owner) was easy to contact, attentive, and lovely to deal with. Thanks Irene, we had a great summer holiday, wish we could have stayed longer.

La Chapelle-d'Abondance
Great property, just as advertised. Excellent lounge, dining kitchen area - enough for double our family size. Bedrooms all of a good size, we only used 2 out of the 4, so plenty of room for a large family. Chalet was very clean and had everything we needed for weeks holiday. Great location close to ski here , good restaurants and great views over the valley. Easy access (by car) to local slopes but we drove to main Chatel car park to access Chatel / Avoriaz slopes. Owner Irene - great at communication, provided everything / all information required. Was available on Whatsapp, answered immediately, very friendly / helpful and checked in with us to make sure everything was ok - no problems at all. Highly recommend ! - i rarely write a review but wanted to share.

Well equipped chalet, ideal for families
We stayed at Irene's chalet with two small kids. The chalet is beautiful. Much larger than seen in the photos. It has an ideal lay-out, with one large bedroom on the ground floor and three others on the second floor. We had everything we needed and more for a holiday with two babies: two high chairs, one baby cot, a baby changing area with its own sink, and a fully equipped kitchen. The chalet is pretty close to the center of La Chapelle d'Abondance (five minute walking distance, a bit longer on the way back as it is uphill) which has a few good restaurants and a bakery. The closest supermarket is about 5-10 minute drive away and it is best to drive to one of the more central lifts to have immediate access to the heart of Portes du Soleil. We drove to Pre la Joux lift, which took us about 15-20 minutes. Communication with Irene was very good. She has gotten in touch with us long before our holiday and has given us a lot of information upfront. She also has checked in on us during our stay. As everything worked very well, we didn't need any on site assistance, but if needed there is also a local manager who can help. All in all, it has been a great holiday in a beautiful chalet and we would certainly be back when we are in Portes du Soleil area again.
