About the host
Hosted by Marilyn de Bois
My name is Marilyn de Bois and I am the owner of Chalet Bams. I am married and a proud mother of two beautiful daughters. This Chalet belonged to my aunt and am so happy and proud that I can call myself owner because as a nice memory of my aunt. Yvonne Bams was her name and she lived for the mountains. She has climbed the mountains until she was 70 with so much passion! Of course always in the company of a guide. On one of the mountains there is a bench placed with her name on it to honor her. She was actually a legend in Arolla. That is why I named her chalet after her. I work as a stewardess at KLM and am so happy to occasionally not to be in the air, but to stay in the mountains without having to use an airline to visit this beautiful oases in the mountains.
Because of my experience of staying at sometimes 5 star hotels, I found it absolutely a must to offer my chalet as comfortable as possible. It is important to me that everything is perfectly maintained, is clean, and of course the necessary luxurious comfort is present. I therefore hope that, just as I do every time, can fully enjoy it.

Why they chose this property
I really wanted to keep chalet Bams in the family. My brothers and sister, however, were not interested, so I took over her chalet myself.
The environment is so beautiful and soothing. In the winter I enjoy the cross-country ski run that is right outside my door. I also love to sit on my balcony enjoying the sun that will shine around 10:00 in the morning. My chalet is facing the south what is so there will be full up sun during the day. In the summer I enjoy the beautiful greenery that appears everywhere, and the walks that I can make around my chalet. The sound of the cows with the bells they wear around their neck makes me realize what wonderful it is to be allowed to stay in this nature.
My chalet is on a river that you can see when you look down. The wonderful sound of the water flowing from the mountains sounds like music to my ears. A small stream runs down my terrace. So actually I also have a mini river running in front of my terrace. My plans are therefore stay longer periods in my chalet in the future. I call it my little paradise on this earth. The peace that la Monta radiates is a gift for me.

What makes this property unique
As a small child, I visited my aunt every year with my mother and brothers and sister. In the next couple of years, I visited her with with my family.
The moment I open the door of my chalet, one can smell the wood. And then I know for sure, I'm home again.
After unpacking, my husband and I are sitting at the balcony to enjoy the view and the sun and a delicious glass of wine. When it gets colder a little later we light the fireplace and enjoy the warmth and the sound of the crackling wood, in our cozy living room.
Because there is an open kitchen, my husband and our daughters can sit at the bar for a cozy drink while I prepare the food.
When it is time to go to bed we close the shutters and are already looking forward to being able to open them again in order to enjoy the beautiful view again. In the master bedroom there are two French doors that provide access to the terrace. I always open these doors in the morning and enjoy the beautiful view of the mountains while enjoying a delicious cup of tea.
In the summer it is a treat to light the barbecue. I have had a large barbecue built so that all plates and meat can be placed on it.
For groceries shopping you can go to Arolla, or after a short drive at the Coop in Evolène. Do you really want a day out, then you can go to Sion to have a nice morning. Sion is a real must to visit. It is a beautiful city with many nice shops and cozy terraces.
Because my aunt had bought land around the chalet, a lot of privacy was created. Now you really have the peace and you can enjoy the view without looking inside the neighbors.
