About this property

Prince des Cimes Arc1950 6 bed, ski-in, ski-out, underground parking

The apartment consists of an entrance hall leading to a bedroom with twin beds. There is a separate toilet and a shower room. Next door is the main living area, comprising comfortable seating including a double sofabed, a dining table with seven chairs, and a kichen area. There is access to the balcony with seating. On the opposite side of the living room, well separated from the twin bedroom, a door leads to the master double (super king) bedroom which has its own en-suite bathroom including a shower over the bath.

The kitchen includes a hob, full oven and microwave oven as well as the normal cooking equipment.

Duvets are provided for all beds including the sofabed - 2 x double + 2 x single. Clean bed linen (sheets, duvet covers, 6 pillowcases) will be provided for all. Towels are provided for 6 persons - 1 bath towel, 1 hand towel each. 1 bath mat is provided for each bathroom. 1 tea towel is provided for the kitchen. Small 'starter kits' are provided for bathroom toiletries and kitchen cleaning. Preparation of the apartment and cleaning at the end of your stay are included in the rental price.

When we started renting the apartment ourselves, we modified the kitchen to make the worktops more useable. We also installed a new Samsung 40 inch HD TV with a subscription to Netflix, and our own dedicated broadband WiFi so the problems of sharing P&V's overcrowded WiFi are now history.

This is your chance for a real bargain, with sensible discounts from the tour operators prices. We are also happy to agree rental with you directly if you find the platform charges are something you would like to avoid - arc1950apartment followed by a full stop and then net.

We have owned this apartment from new, but in common with most owners at Arc 1950 we leased it to P & V and we were restricted to skiing for only 2 weeks per year. Happily now since the winter season of 2016-17 our apartment has been available to rent for the whole 19 weeks, apart from the weeks when our friends and family were out in the Village enjoying the snow!

Great stay!
Richard was great at communicating with us before and during the stay. The apartment is perfectly located in the Princes des Cimes block, on the second floor overlooking the main square in 1950. We have stayed in Les Arcs a few times before and this was the best apartment we have stayed in. Thanks Richard!

Fantastic.
Great apartment, perfectly located right in the centre of Arc 1950 village with direct ski in / ski out access. Apartment is large with good facilities; kids especially liked the strong wi-fi and smart TV with Netflix and YouTube. Small but well appointed kitchen - especially liked the Nespresso Virtuo coffee maker. Arc 1950 itself is a great village with plenty of restaurants etc accessible from the pistes. Fantastic communication from Richard the owner throughout booking and answering questions both ahead and during our stay. Would wholly recommend to anyone considering a stay here

Lovely spacious apartment for family vacation.
Great apartment. Very comfortable. Lots of communal space and spacious bedrooms. Bin room just down the hall and pool and laundry room just one level below. Bakery downstairs and shop a few steps out front. Well equipped for self-catering. Good wi-fi and UK tv channels a bonus.

About the host

Hosted by Richard

Host profile image
I am co-owner of the apartment with my three adult children who inherited my late wife's share in 2006. We have enjoyed skiing in Arc1950 ever since our apartment was completed in time for the 2004/5 season, and love going back when we can. Until 2015-16 our apartment was leased to the main operator at Arc1950, Pierre et Vacances (PnV). We decided that we would like more choice, and more weeks for ourselves, our family and friends. And of course also for other guests who are interested in renting directly from us, knowing exactly which apartment they will be staying in.

Why they chose this property

The apartment is on the second floor of the Prince des Cimes building. The operator PnV has found that this building continues to attract high demand, not least because of the large swimming pool where you can venture through a curtain and swim outside too. One frustration until we took on marketing our apartment ourselves was the very flaky WiFi generally provided by the building operator. We have had our own line installed so the apartment now has a separate private broadband link with WiFi. And having done that, we decided that a new 40 inch HD TV with a Netflix subscription would complete the package, so we hope you'll enjoy that too.

What makes this property unique

Our apartment faces the village square, so you can look down from the warm while the ski school classes assemble. There's always something interesting to watch, but we have never had a noise problem as the bars and restaurants are far enough away not to bother us. We are actually directly above the bakery, though sadly we don't get any baking aromas. I have often thought that it would be great if we could arrange to lower a basket for our morning croissants or baguette!
