Chalet Bonnefous is a renovated Samoens chalet with exceptional warmth and familial charm. The property is located in a quiet cul de sac, just a few minutes walk from the heart of the 13th Century Alpine village and very close to the ‘Grand Massif Express’ (GME) ski lift.
This family home is a lovely mix of modern day comforts and traditional old world style and provides accommodation for 11 (12) guests in 5 bedrooms, with 4 bathrooms.
The main reception area is on the first floor and flows through the whole length of the chalet. The space divides up into 3 and features an open fireplace, TV room/snug and a study area. These rooms have plenty of deep, comfortable sofas and chairs for ultimate comfort after a long day on the slopes. The Ground floor dining room is an elegant space to host elaborate dinners, setting the perfect scene for an evening of smoking hot fondue and glasses of crisp French white wines.
There are five entirely unique bedrooms, including a twin (or double) with television and ensuite bathroom, two further double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a Bunk bedroom sleeping 4 and one more single bedroom. We can also, upon request, set up a an extra single bed in the study.
There is a driveway for one car in front of the property and parking for a further 3 cars just outside.
