"Outstanding from start to finish. Chalet Moccand was perfect for us in a fab location, with the village centre being just a few minutes’ walk from the chalet. It is beautifully decorated with ample room for 10 fitness enthusiasts coming to run a race (Samoens Trail Tour). The rooms offered a variety of sleeping options from doubles, twins to bunk beds. The bathrooms were finished to a high spec and were in keeping with the style of the property. The kitchen offered great space and facilities to prepare a mighty feast. Even with 10 of us all sorting our race supplies in the morning there was still plenty of room. The dining area was huge, boasting a beautiful rustic table, as did the living area, furnished with leather sofas, large cozy blankets, a flat screen TV and of course the fireplace forming the heart of this perfect dwelling. We all loved the sunny garden and massive hot tub, it was a home-from-home with a very warm welcome. We will be visiting again. If you're looking for accommodation in Samoens this is the place to come."

We found Samoens in 2016, when we were looking to buy an apartment in Haute Savoie, and immediately fell for its charms and the excellent range of outdoor activities year-round. We took over as the owners of Chalet Moccand and the Mazot in 2021, and love to share these beautifully renovated properties with our guests. Samoens is a place we find it very easy to relax in, and we aim to help all guests do the same!
