Résidence Pierre & Vacances le Belmont

We had a great stay here. The boot room opens straight out onto the slopes for a ski in/out experience. The apartment was comfy and a good size.

We’ve had a lovely stay here and will come again!! The best part is the location. If you are able to ski there is never a time when you have to walk anywhere in your ski boots. The locker room opens onto the blue piste. It got a bit icy some days but perfectly skiable for anybody that’s not a complete beginner. If you are a beginner skier the lifts and ski school are a 5 min walk down the hill. You can’t get much closer!! The ski area is brilliant!! We chose 2 bed apartment that sleeps 6. We had 2 adults in the double bedroom and our 11 and 13 year old in the twin room. We kept the sofa bed clear to give more space. The apartment was a good size for us. The kitchen was very basic. There was a combi microwave oven but we couldn’t work out how to use the oven part so all we did was used the hob and microwave for food. We were surprised to have to put our own sheets (sheets provided by the hotel) on our beds but have never stayed in self catering in France so presume this is normal. Also bring your own loo rolls, they gave us two for the week and you are meant to buy more!! The shop is very expensive so bring what you can from uk. I’d say the best value food is pizza takeaway. There’s a bakery very close (in Aguille grives) where you can go each day for croissants and fresh bread. Reception are very helpful and happy to offer advice. You can also borrow sledges from reception. Also a tip if you are driving from the uk- sat nav may try to take you across a piste!! Do not turn off (right) towards Landry, keep going towards Bourg Saint Maurice. Follow signs right into Bourg saint maurice and from there follow signs to les arcs and then to arc 1800! We trusted sat nav and turned towards Landry then followed the mountain all the way up to Peisey Vallandry where the sat nav tried to make us drive along a piste. (I presume it’s a mountain road in the summer). We had to go all the way back down and through Bourg and back up the other side which added an hour onto our journey. Overall a great stay. We would love to come again next year. The photo of skiers. Is standing on the piste just outside the boot room. The gondolas are just at the bottom of the hill.
