Le Saphir - Terrésens - Hôtels & Résidences ^★★★★

Boasting a prime location in the charming and authentic village resort of Samoëns, in Haute-Savoie, the holiday complex enjoys an ideal, peaceful setting whilst remaining within easy reach of the village centre and its traditional shops. Just a few minutes from the ski lifts (Grand Massif Express), it opens the door to the Grand Massif, one of the largest interconnected ski areas in the Alps. As for aquatic facilities, the residence does not have an on-site swimming pool, but you can easily reach the municipal outdoor pool in summer or the aquatic centre at a nearby partner venue, not to mention the magnificent natural site of the Gorges de la Diosaz or the Rouget waterfall in the surrounding area.

Designed as a true haven of peace that encourages independence and relaxation, the residence offers holidaymakers a cosy playroom equipped with entertainment facilities and a welcoming lounge with a fireplace where you can unwind at the end of the day. To preserve the peace and quiet of its residents, the residence does not offer daily entertainment or on-site children’s clubs. However, all of Samoëns’ sports and leisure facilities are easily accessible: a snow garden and ski lessons with the ESF in winter, an ice rink, toboggan runs, as well as the Lac aux Dames leisure centre during the summer season (tennis, tree-top adventure course, archery).
