“We have loved Samoens! Great walks from Samoens 1600, and Col du Joux Plane, and also Cirque du Fer a Cheval. The balcony has been great for relaxing in the evenings and watching the paragliders. Great pizzas at La Chevre. We loved the boulangerie down by the gondola. The public pool was also great and refreshing after a long walk. Thank you, we hope to return!”

“We had a wonderful trip to Samoens this summer. The apartment was brilliant, well equipped. Great location for all the local amenities.”
Burrows, Apartment la Bottiere, August 2024
“A wonderful apartment with magnificent views and a great location to access town and the bakery in the mornings! We enjoyed our walks to mountain refuges which were perfect for the cooler mornings. Samoens swimming pool was also great and is worth a visit, especially when it is hot. Recommend rafting with Nunayak and family canyoning and paragliding with ZigZag. Mezzanine restaurant is amazing, but you have to book. We also loved the Thursday concert! Samoens and Sixt were as beautiful as ever. Thank you.”

We are Andy and Sarah, a market researcher and cartoonist. We found that skiing is a great way to keep our three boys coming on family holidays as they grew older. We discovered Samoens on a friend's recommendation and now love summer in the mountains, as well as it's wonderful winter hospitality. Samoens combines a small town feel with extensive skiing and every year we seem add another activity to our time here.
