Le Chalet des Boisses

Super séjour ! Chalet moderne, confortable et super équipé ! Nous avons apprécié le hammam pur se détendre, la qualité de l'équipement (cuisine, salle de bains) et surtout le vaste espace au niveau du salon, pour permettre de passer un agréable moment de détente après une longue journée de ski ! Pour atteindre les pistes : c'est à 10 mètres ! La voiture est restée sur le parking toute la semaine. Petit supermarché à proximité avec du bon pain chaud (et croissants) le matin, un vaste choix de vin et de produits de qualité.

Magnifique chalet moderne et confortable. Idéal pour passer un super séjour à 10 personnes : tout est dimensionné pour (taille des pièces, équipements super moderne, vaisselle adaptée). Le hammam et le jacuzzi agrémente le séjour. Vous pouvez surveiller vos enfants qui de la luge à partir du chalet :-). Le dialogue avec les propriétaires est également top! Je recommande de louer directement vers eux sur le site internet du chalet.

Une semaine de rêve dans ce magnifique chalet entièrement rénové avec goût. Digne d'une revue de décoration. Le chalet est situé au pied des pistes et à deux pas du centre du village. Il est parfaitement équipé pour accueillir 12 personnes voire plus. La vue à 360 degré sur les montagnes est splendide. En plus les terrasses qui entourent le chalet permettent de profiter des premiers rayons du soleil à tout moment. L'endroit est parfait pour se ressourcer en famille ou entre amis.

We spent a wonderful week in this completely refurbished and stylish while super cozy chalet. All rooms are very inviting and well equipped. Beds are super comfortable! A huge living room allows to ‘chill’ with your friends after a day of skiing. Fans of Hamman and Jacuzzi are equally served. A small supermarket with a great choice of bread, ‘croissants ‘ and more is just a five minutes walk away. Ski equipment can be rented in two different sport shops. The ski region is great and you access it directly from the chalet. We will definitely come back!!

TL;DR: Our stay at Le Chalet des Boisses was nothing short of spectacular! From the communication with the owners, to the chalet itself, its location, its amenities and its fair pricing - staying here made our vacation in Tignes truly magical. Communication with Marie and Olivier: From the first moment we sent a booking request through the Chalet's website we felt the owners were super communicative, answering all our (many) questions quickly and doing their best to accommodate our needs. In these uncertain times I felt we were treated super fairly as we actually had to cancel our first booking due to a COVID-19 lockdown and flight cancellations. Marie helped us understand what our options were, communicated transparently, and eventually suggested different dates that worked for us as the lockdown had been lifted. During our stay Marie and Olivier were always available to support us with questions/problems we had, and did their best again to accommodate us. I think this point is what made us feel so confident booking this chalet, as we knew we were dealing with professionals. The Chalet itself: The chalet is simply beautiful! It looks like it was just recently renovated and is well maintained, with all parts of the chalet boasting high-end amenities that are in top notch condition. In the (keyless!) entrance there's a very convenient ski room with racks to dry boots and helmets, with the ski lockers are just outside the main door. The hammam is just a life saver after a long day of skiing, as well as the jacuzzi outside that's always boiling hot and ready for a relaxing session. The bedrooms are all beautiful, with each one built a bit differently and with slightly different decor. The beds and the (embroidered!) linen were so comfy we couldn't get out of the bed in the morning. Note that the bedrooms in the 2nd floor are a bit more spacey than the ones in the 1st floor, but they're all large enough to accommodate two adults without a problem. The en-suite and standalone washrooms are well equipped, with new showers and bathtubs. Upstairs the living room/kitchen/dining room is jaw dropping, with a 360 view around the chalet thanks to the large windows and terraces. The kitchen is equipped with everything you can ask for - with high-end stove, induction cooktops, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, juice maker, coffee maker and plenty others. Outside in the terrace there's an amazing BBQ as well. The living room is very cozy, with the automatic fireplace, the TV and all the plush bean bags. We had lots of fun evenings there watching TV and drinking wine. The location: The chalet is located at Tignes 1800, which is a relatively quiet village without much apres-ski. There's about 2 restaurants in the village and 1 pizza bar that's open in the evenings. There's a free shuttle that takes you to Tignes 2100 where there's a bit more activity, but after the ski day ends the shuttle frequency drops to once every 30 mins. In the village we could find a supermarket, ski rental shops, the ESF school and the tourist office that sells ski pass - which were very useful to us. The chalet itself is situated next a road on one side and a ski piste on the other side. It is indeed a true ski-in as mentioned - you can slide down from the edge of the ski piste right into the entrance. In terms of ski-out however you'd need to walk about 40-50 meters to the start of the children ski piste, so take that into account that you can't just put your skis on and ski from the entrance of the chalet. Nevertheless we loved the location and it turned out super convenient for us. In terms of skiing from the chalet the only option is to ski down the children slope, and then either taking the gondola up or continuing skiing down to Tignes 1500. The gondola up is relatively fast, so even though Tignes 1800 is at the edge of the ski domain, we could still get up to the mountain and main pistes quickly at the start of our day of skiing. I highly recommend staying here with your family/friends - we simply had a marvelous week.
