Small but cosy apartment within easy reach of the slopes and local amenities. I stayed on my own but it'd be perfect for families too and has everything you need for a ski holiday at a more than reasonable price. Heather (the host) responds very quickly to messages and was very helpful. Highly recommended.
Clean appartment very close to the Flaine Forum shuttle lift and a small shopping center. The ski bus stopps 100m outside the house. 400m walking to the skilifts. Very nice host, easy to get in contact with.Altogether goid value for your money.
Amazing apartment, with great views over the surrounding valley and slopes. Located very close to the slopes, shops, restaurants which was perfect. Overall just the perfect place to stay for a couple.
Small but well laid out apartment in Flaine Forêt. Great location next door to the local facilities which includes a small Spar supermarket and a nice bakery. There is also an escalator down to the main Flaine resort in the same building. Apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed for basic self catering and a nice selection of games, tv etc as well as storage for skis. The host Heather was incredibly helpful and easy to deal with. Note linen and towels have to be arranged separately which was straightforward - common with many French properties. Extremely good value for a location next to the best ski slopes.
We found this apartment has everything you need for a comfortable ski holiday. The view from the balcony is beautiful - tree lined mountain sides and slopes. The shops and ski hire were very close. Walking to the slopes is a bit further but easily doable - we chose to walk over the ski bus. Heather, the apartment owner, is very happy to help and quick to respond if you need any advice. We had a great stay here and are looking at booking this apartment again!
Well furnished and stocked property. Ideal for self catering.

Bien mais des points à améliorer
L’emplacement est idéal
Quelques détails à revoir pour améliorer la qualité de la location: des plaques de cuisson, une cafetière, une lumière supplémentaire dans la pièce à vivre,…
From beginning to end the rental process was easy and Heather was very quick to respond to any queries we had. The location of the property is ideal, close to the slopes, shops, bus etc. First time visiting Flaine and won't be the last, lovely resort!
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour, appartement très ensoleillé, très agréable. Charmante hôtesse qui nous a donné tous les renseignements pratiques.
Logement bien situé, très bien équipé. Propriétaire réactif et très aimable.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in
Belle vue en effet mais prestations très insuffisantes.
La belle vue promise était au rendez-vous mais l'appartement mérite une rénovation complète (comme beaucoup de résidences à Flaine par ailleurs...). La conciergerie n'est pas au niveau, ménage non fait à l'arrivée et attitude désagréable lors du départ.
We enjoyed our stay at Siruis very much. We are a family of 6 adults and the apartment was fine for us. The sliding door across lounge makes 3 separate areas for sleeping. Back bedroom bed is a good size with large bed. Apartment is very handy to the slopes and close to Spar, bars and ski-hire. We walked to the slopes but the frequent navette stops outside if wished. After skiing get off navette at first stop in carpark and walk down path to avoid doing full circuit of resort. Key pick up and return was easy and we parked in car park above the apartment. We drove and stored our clothes in plastic underbed boxes under the bunk and above large wardrobe. Lots of hooks in hall for hanging ski kit. Very hot water. Lovely view. Hope to stay again.
Apartment advertised as sleeps 4-6 but far too small...more like 2-4...no room for any suitcases and no storage at all

Quiet apartment in a fantastic location
We had a wonderful stay here last week. Family of 3. Plenty of room for us - bigger than many ski apartments we have stayed in. And the balcony is great. The apartments are quiet, ski lockers are great and it's in a brilliant location for ESF Flaine Foret ski school - less than 10 minutes walk from door to meeting point. Bakery next door for breakfast too! Key pick-up was easy enough, and we were grateful to be able to leave our bags at the property services for free on Saturday so we could keep skiiing after check out. One thing to be aware of is that the hot water in the flat is HOT - obviously a good thing but something to be aware of when turning on the tap. We recommend Flaine and we'd definitely stay in this apartment again. Thank you!

Nice apartment, with a great view in a great location
We (2 adults and an 8 year old) stayed here for 5 nights and it was exactly what we needed. The apartment had everything we needed, and the wifi was very good. Size wise it was great for us but I think anymore than 4 and it would start to feel cramped. I think its fair to say the apartment is starting to look a bit tired but that didn't impact our stay. The view is great, especially when its snowing :-) Location is perfect. 2 mins to spar, bakery, take away pizza, bar and ski hire shop (SPORT2000 - great kit at very reasonable price and let us leave our bags there on the last day) and 5 min walk to the lifts.

About the host
Hosted by Heather
We have been coming to Flaine for 40 years and adore it. We have found the snow to be as reliable as anywhere in the alps. We currently visit as a family and find it to be convenient and child friendly.
If you have any questions about the apartment or wider resort please feel free to contact me, and I will do my very best to help.
Happy holidays,
Heather @flaine1969
Why they chose this property
Flaine is the best European location we know for exceptional snow conditions all season. We bought this apartment from family friends in order that I could share the kind of holidays I had had growing up with my own family. We haven't been disappointed, with the resort only improving over the years, we have visited more and more each year as our family has grown. Hoping you enjoy staying here as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
The view from the south facing balcony is outstanding. There are no stairs to navigate as the entrance is on the same floor as the apartment. The building is conveniently located in Flaine Foret, close to shops and restaurants, and walking distance from the slopes at this level of the resort. Here you will find super runs for children and beginners, on slope ski lockers, ski lesson meeting points and the Grande Van ski lift, linking the resort of Flaine with the wider ski area.
