Home Truths
The driveway to the chalet is a single car width. You will be required to either reverse in or reverse out of it. Alternatively, you may park for free in town square by Tiffanie bakery and walk up to chalet on the public path. In snow conditions, winter boots will be essential to reach the chalet safely.
The lower ground floor contains a separate apartment dwelling, occupied by a friendly couple who use it as a base / second home with a separate entrance and not overlooking the garden. This will not impact your privacy or full use of the property during your stay. Both the garden and hot tub are exclusively for your use and we re-iterate that the chalet is completely independent and private. Please let us know if you have any questions about this.
A car is recommended to get around. However there is a ski bus stop nearby. It takes around 10 minutes to reach the ski lift in Samoens.
We are happy to provide guests with a baby cot (folding type) and high chair.
The garden is on a wide plateau, but is not enclosed and does have a steep drop off at the front. We ask that guests acknowledge this fact and supervise children and pets at all times.
The chalet is not wheelchair accessible. For those with reduced mobility, please note that there are stairs and steps within the property. Please also bear in mind that access in winter may be slippery for elderly guests.

What Our Guests Say
Location
Chalet Florissant is located near the centre of Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, where you will find a delicious bakery, mini-market, bars and restaurants. The location is perfect for privacy and to enjoy an authentic mountain experience. You may drive to Samoens or opt to take the ski bus to reach the principal ski domain from Samoens.
It takes roughly 10 minutes by car (or ski bus) to reach the high speed ‘GME’ lift connecting you to the Grand Massif ski domain in winter, which boasts some of the best skiing in the world. Suitable for all levels, there is over 275km of piste to explore and plenty of off-piste for more advanced skiers. In the summer, this area is a hub for adventure sports such as hiking, mountain biking, climbing and paragliding.
Distances & Transport
Sixt Centre: 0.2km; Samoens Centre: 5km; Ski Lift: 5km; Geneva Airport: 80km (1hr 15); Paris: 600km (6hrs+); London: 1,000km (12hrs+)
A car is recommended at this chalet. However, you may opt for a transfer service directly from Geneva Airport, which will take you directly to the chalet. We recommend contacting Go Massif. For more information and other recommendations, please visit our online Guest Guide.
