Résidence Pierre & Vacances Les Néréides

Great location comfortable and clean

Kitchen lacked one or 2 bits but nothing special

No trollies!

Beautiful views and an ample balcony with 2 deckchairs and a sunbed. Great heating and soundproofing. Perfect layout for the functional apartment. Friendly and knowledgeable receptionist who spoke perfect English.

Only minor points. The single beds could have been wider as the room had extra space. There was no good ventilation for the toilet.

The panorama from our balconies (we had 2 small balconies) was amazing. The bed in the master bedroom was wide enough (I believe it was 160 cm wide instead of 140 cm elsewhere). Master bedroom did not have another apartment on the upper level, so virtually no noise. This is not the case for the secondary bedroom with two twin beds (facing opposite side of the building, exposed to noise also from people using stairs).

Elevator did not work to our floor. The beds were not made when we arrived. Cleanliness of the unit was passable. Windows and doors very poorly insulated (cold air blazing through them). Nothing provided in the kitchen, not even salt & pepper. Bedrooms are extremely small, no space to walk next to the bed in master bedroom and overall no space available to deposit luggage (none!...). I would recommend this 7 person apartment for max 4 people (even then, luggage would have to sit in the living room).

Location was perfect

The kitchen was a bit small but we managed except there was no proper oven and no instructions for the microwave /grill. There were 5 of us. Would have been much too cramped if we’d filled all 7 beds.

location is excellent.Ski in and out, close to ski rental and ski school, close to Spar. The view from our room was a wonderful bonus!

Comfortable apartment with more generous sized rooms/bathroom than usual. The bathroom in particular is nice and roomy. Very helpful and friendly reception staff who had our Huski food order waiting for us when we arrived, and were always happy to answer questions. Although ski lockers are provided on floor 3, we found it more convenient to keep our skis in our room - the ski in/out access is really from the front of the block on the reception level (floor 0) so we just took the skis down in the lift. The main centre of the resort is accessed by 120 (!!) steps. We realised that we could avoid 20 of these by accessing the building via the car park entrance (level -1) which was a real plus with tired legs after a day on the slopes. The accommodation provides a cleaning pack of 5 dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, pan scourer, dishcloth and a small bottle of general purpose cleaner. 2 tea towels are also provided. It would have been nice if this could be stated in the property details so that we didn't have to bring our own of these items. Oh and don't forget to bring some coffee filters if you want to use the machine (we couldn't find any in the supermarket)I We also made use of the French law which means that they have to give you any leftovers from a meal to take away- having been served the most enormous plate of charcuterie early in the week, the leftovers kept us in sandwich fillings for several days!

The Spar supermarket is pretty rubbish - mostly seems to stock sweets, alcohol and biscuits! Certainly not a patch on the supermarket in Arc 1950, but we were able to get the basics we needed for lunch, breakfast etc. It is also not that easy to find - certainly don't use Google Maps which doesn't have the pathways in the resort commercial centre mapped. For reference it's on the lowest floor, at the end closest to Plagne Bellecote. The hairdryer was pretty useless - the mechanism for keeping it running is extremely difficult to operate. As with all accommodation the hand towels were tiny and certainly pretty rubbish for drying long hair, but that's a universal problem, rather than a specific issue with this place.
