Owner Location Comment
Samoëns, located in the Haute-Savoie region of the French Alps, is just a one-hour drive from Geneva. It is an accessible yet unspoiled, authentic and pretty mountain village set in the heart of the Giffre Valley, offering panoramic views of the Mont Blanc range. Samoëns carries the designation of a “ville fleurie” distinguishing it as one of the most beautiful towns in France.

Samoëns forms part of the Grand Massif, which with 265km of piste is the fourth largest ski region in France. With abundant snowfall and a long ski season, there is much to challenge the experienced skier as well as excellent provision for the novice and for children.

The summer months offer hiking, mountain biking, white water rafting, paragliding (parapenting), golf, and fishing to name but a few of the activities available.

Being only 60km from Geneva, Samoëns is perfect for a long weekend, short stay or long break.

“Chalet Apassion was all that we had hoped for and more. The accommodation is of a very high standard, tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable. The bed linen is luxurious and the facilities are of a similar high standard. High attention to detail added to the overall experience – soft white dressing gowns and slippers, large bath towels and a relaxation area for children which included a large TV and playstation!

We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this as a great place for a relaxing holiday.”

Totally perfect in every way….. Rob and Vicky made our week here totally relaxing – everything we could have hoped for. The chalet is set in a beautiful location and is superbly appointed. The quality and variety of food was excellent and Rob and Vicky’s thoughfulness and attention to detail made this a very special experience.”

Owners Profile
'APASSION’ was born through a passion for quality, great customer service and fantastic food, delivered in a beautiful, relaxing environment.

APASSION is owned and run by husband and wife team Rob and Vicky. Having been fortunate enough to have been on numerous luxury ski holidays over the years, to have travelled extensively and to have worked a winter ski season with a top-end ski holiday company, we have gained a sense of what we believe makes for the ultimate ski holiday experience.

We pride ourselves on our quality of service, consistently high standards, attention to detail and culinary expertise, all set in luxurious yet comfortable and welcoming surroundings.

After some considerable research across the Alps, we discovered Samoëns and were instantly taken by its history, natural beauty and the Grand Massif ski domain and decided to make Samoëns the home of APASSION.

Being very particular about the APASSION experience we want our guests to share, we set about designing our own luxury chalet, Chalet APASSION, in Samoëns to ensure that everything we hope you love about a luxury alpine chalet could be combined into one.

Every detail within the ski chalet has been given considerable thought and carefully chosen to make your stay with us as easy, relaxing and enjoyable as possible.

Vicky’s experience as a chef, providing ‘high-end dining’ in the luxury catered ski holiday business, was a great success. We hope that her passion for food and especially for sumptuous cakes and ‘too-tempting’ desserts draws some familiar faces back to holiday and ski in Samoëns.

Rob’s experience as an alpine ski resort manager helps to ensure the smooth running of the business, making sure your stay with us is hassle free.

We look forward to sharing our APASSION with you in order to make your alpine holiday a truly memorable experience.
