Madame Vacances les Terrasses de Véret

Fantastic spot. Clean and very friendly staff. Apartment fully stocked with all necessary amenities. Pool was big and no need to book. Within 100 meters of the slopes and ticket shop. We had a great family holiday with a 7 and 9 year old. Quiet at night as well

Top location, top view, very clean appartment, lovely staff. Many irher people need to take a bus to the slopes, here de walk 80m and we are on the slopes. Top! Very nice après-ski view from the big terrace with a beautifull view. We booked an appaetment for 8p, although we were only 6. So we were very comfortable. We come here since several years, and we will be back next year. Thank tou Claude and team!

I write this review with a heavy heart. Les Terrasses de Veret is in a prime location not just for Flaine but for the Alps. It’s at 1700m and snow safe. The Grand Massif area in which it lies offers close to 300km of Piste. There is an 8 man chair (Grand Vans) 100m from the building and the residence has a nice swimming pool, Sauna and a Jacuzzi outside on a deck. The beginners area is also 100m away, yet there are plenty of challenging runs for advanced skiers too. The views from the upper floors are to die for. So...what’s the catch? The furnishings are dreadful. In the lounge / diner / kitchen the sofa bed, armchairs and coffee table are massive. You don’t expect huge apartments in prime ski locations, but the size of these furnishings makes them almost claustrophobic. If you book a 2 bed apartment hoping to sleep 6 (i.e. using the sofa bed) make sure you bring a mechanical engineer with you to set up the bed each night - not simple at all. Also if you like sleep of any description you have a double whammy. The curtains are wafer thin (and covered in nasty stains) so if your room is south facing you will be illuminated all night by the streetlights. Then there are the mattresses...I am not big 5 feet 6 inches tall and 11 stone - I did not get a wink of sleep for three nights at which point I moved to the lounge and slept in an armchair. The mattresses are DREADFUL and would barely support a small child it’s a bit like sleeping on a cardboard box. The staff are lovely and do all they can but I am sure they are inundated with complaints related to the furniture. This should be somewhere people come back to year after year but it is not and it has to be down to lack of investment by the operators. Such a shame.
