“We have had a fantastic time at Chalet APASSION. We were made to feel very welcome, the cakes were lovely and the local information really made the holiday. We would certainly return, the accommodation is first class and every little touch has been thought of. Thank you both for a very enjoyable few days, we only wish we were staying longer!”

“Nous avons passé de très belles journées dans un cadre magnifique. L’acceuil etait très chaleureux. Le jeune couple est très souriant et toujours de bonne humeur. Vicky est une très bonne cuisinière. A tout cela nous ajoutons de beau temps qui a duré pendant tout le séjour. Merci beaucoup à tous les deux et peut-être à une autre fois.”

“Thank you so much for making this weekend so cosy and homely. We have enjoyed the chalet, the hot tub and sauna, the stunning views from the couch, but most of all your company! There are plenty of nice places in this world, but only a very few that leave this kind of impression …. Thank you!!!”
Marina & Ikran, Geneva, May 2012
“Spring ski-ing is always a bit risky, but we had 2 perfect days with fresh soft powder and sunny skies! We couldn’t have wished for more, every evening relaxing after a hard days ski-ing in Rob & Vicky’s hot tub overlooking the fabulous mountain views! Food was great and much appreciated and nothing was too much trouble. Thanks for such a relaxing break and hope to return soon!”

Cette semaine est encore passée trop vite …
A bientot et merci pour votre acceuil et votre gentillesse.”

“Dear Rob & Vicky. You guys really have a winning formula here – stunning views, great skiing, fantastic food and good company. You make a great team – Rob is a very relaxed and friendly host and Vicky is a brilliant cook. It is evident that a great deal of careful thought and a huge amount of hard work has gone into making this and you deserve every bit of success that will undoubtedly come your way. We particularly appreciate your flexibility in accommodating the varying needs of three different generations. Highlights for me included Vicky’s cakes and watching the fireworks from the hot tub! This has definitely been one of our best ever holidays – thank you so much.”

“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!
The hosts, Vicky and Rob, are hardworking, professional, friendly and extremely accommodating. Rob’s front of house style was attentive without being overbearing, and made us feel welcome and at home. Vicky is an excellent chef, creating well planned and beautifully presented three course meals, delicious cakes for afternoon tea and interesting and tasty apperitifs.
We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this as a great place for a relaxing holiday.”
