Caroline was extremely good at communication, providing a wealth of useful information prior to our stay as well as checking in during our holiday to ensure that everything was ok. The apartment was exactly as seen on the photos, a real home from home with very comfortable beds, enough space to relax and a well equipped kitchen area. The apartment was very warm and well located.

it was fantastic

last week (crocus holiday) we were guests in Caroline's beautiful apartment, it was wonderful. It started with the booking, everything went smoothly, clear information and good contact with Caroline. On arrival at the apartment, everything was clean and tidy, and it looked very neat, all very nice, spacious living room with complete kitchen, 2 bathrooms, spacious sun terrace, 2 spacious bedrooms and a small room with bunk beds, the only point of criticism is if If you are with 6 adults, the room with bunk beds is a bit crab, we enjoyed the well-kept apartment and had a wonderful week with perfect snow. Parking in the garage and in front of the door is ideal, about a 6-minute walk from the ski lift. Caroline thank you for staying in your cozy and well-maintained apartment. Gr. Ad

Appartement avec grande terrasse.

Appartement sympa avec bonne literie. Grande terrasse. Le parking couvert est très appreciable. Le Bettex est un hameau très mignon mais il n'y a aucun commerce sauf pour les location de ski. Domaine skiable magique. 2 petites choses peut être à revoir : -Dommage que tous les lits ne soient pas fait, nous aurions pu choisir ou dormir. - Les instructions d'arrivée sont en anglais, pensez peut être à les traduire en français .

Premierement, je suis desolee que vous avez trouve une probleme avec les lits que j’ai choisi a faire. Je vous avez envoye un message via VRBO en avance, en disant quels lits je ferais . Si vous m’avais avise d’une autre configuration j’aurais du le faire voluntiers. J’essaye a faire qu’un lit par personne pour etre ‘vert’ et economiser avec l’energie utilisee par le blanchiment (pour la planete.) Tout la literie de l’appartement, utilise ou non, doit etre nettoye naturellement. Deuxiemenent, Je m’excuse. La prochaine fois, j’enverai les instructions en francais aux Francais pas en anglais.

Great property conveniently located.

We had a great week at Caroline’s property. The directions and arrival instructions were excellent and we had a very easy trip. across from Grenoble. As a group of 5 we found it plenty big enough and very warm and comfortable. It’s is well equipped with a good kitchen, plenty of games, good TV and Wi-fi if you want to spend an evening in after a hards days skiing. Le Bettaix is quiet and peaceful and only a short drive from Les Menuires where we found very good restaurants and a good supermarket. The Bettex ski lift up Les Menuires and the 3 Vallées is a few minutes walk away. We had fantastic skiing in early March with plenty of snow. At 1850 altitude you can expect decent snow. We ski’d the whole of the 3 Valleys and found good snow at all parts of the resort. We really enjoyed our stay. Caroline made sure everything went smoothly for us and is a great host.

Four Adults Stay

This was our first ski trip to Europe after many years skiing in North America.We were looking for a similar apartment/condo for our stay and this property was ideal. Our priorities were access to lifts, ease of access, room for Four adults with separate beds, cooking facilities ,dishwasher, washing machine and wi fi internet. We decided to hire a car from Geneva Airport and I would suggest this is the best way to top up groceries from the main village, although we did ski back with top ups some days. The car garage was convenient and the heated ski boot rack was a welcome comfort in the mornings. The recommendations by Carolyn,our host, for both where to ski, eat and generally get around were very helpful. We wholeheartedly recommend this property.

Sehr schöne und gemütliche Wohnng

Unser Aufenthalt in Le Bettex war sehr schön. Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und vor allem sehr gut ausgestattet. Zum Lift läuft man ca. 5 Minuten und wenn man nach Hause kommt ist der eigene Skisckrank mit Skischuhheizung sehr angenehm. Die vielen guten Tipps von unserer Vermieterin waren ebenfalls hervoragend. Wir können das Skiapartment nur weiterempfehlen.

Very comfortable, well appointed chalet.

Four of us spent a great week at Caroline’s chalet. The chalet is a real home from home which provided a good base for a relaxing skiing holiday. the chairlift is about 300 metres walk away from which it is an easy run down to the lifts of Les Menuires, then the three valleys await and of course the fourth one as well. you can ski down from the Croisette area easily at the end of the day if you want to stop for apres or shopping. The garage is spacious and easily fits a large car The owner was super helpful for pre holiday advice and made us feel very welcome. A lovely place to stay

wonderful apartment in amazing ski area

The apartment is very comfortable, well laid out and superbly equipped. Plenty of room for a family of 5. Lots of helpful information provided by the owner and many extras that we've had to pay for or bring in other properties - free wifi, linen, towels, kitchen stuff. Best of all boot warmers in the ski locker. It's in a quiet hamlet just below Les Menuires with a modern 4 man lift to the resort only a 6 minute walk away (or 1 minute drive with free parking & plenty of space by the lift). This was our first trip to the 3 Valleys & the skiing was fantastic. We'll definitely return & I have no hesitation in recommending this apartment as a wonderful place to stay.

excellent séjour au bettaix

Un bel appartement avec garage, confortable et bien équipé, facile d'accès. Les remontées mécaniques sont à 5-10 minutes à pied (terrain plat). La possibilité de se faire livrer pain frais et viennoiseries chaque matin dans la résidence est un vrai plus (pas de commerce au bettaix).

Charming apartment in quiet location

A lovely apartment in the village of Le Bettaix about a 5 to 10-minute walk with skis to a lift at the end of the village, which takes you a point that allows you to easily ski down to the main Les Menuires lift. This then provides easy access to the whole 3 valleys area. The apartment is well laid out and well equipped with everything that you may need for a self-catering stay. The heated beds were a very cosy touch! It was easily comfortable for a family of five, that included two 18-year-olds and a tall 14-year-old! A garage space is provided which makes a big difference when the weather is cold or snowing and if you don't want to walk and can carry skis there is parking next to the lift. Ski hire is available at an Intersport which we found to stay open late on Saturday. Lift passes can be purchased with a credit card in a hut adjacent to the lift with someone on had to provide guidance on Sundays. The apartments boot/ski room is on the same floor as the apartment and with a heated boot rack, we enjoyed toastie dry boots each morning! There is also a bird feeder adjacent to the main balcony and we enjoyed watching a variety of birds feed every morning and evening. The owner Caroline provides a handy folder with details on everything relating to the apartment plus local restaurants and shopping etc. All communication with Caroline was excellent both before, during and after our stay and having stayed in Les Menuires many times before we found this to be one of the best apartments we have stayed in. Although not directly on the slopes everything is easy to reach and it's just our choice not to take the car out. I would have no hesitation recommending this apartment for either winter or summer use as it is a great place for a family stay.

Charming and convenient

The chalet was really charming and convenient with a lot of "home feeling". Kitchen is fully equipped including big freezer, beds were really comfortable, nice terrace... Garage In the cellar and elevator to the door. The slopes are at walking distance and there is a parking lot just beside if you want to be lazy. Caroline has great advice and descriptions summarized in a comprehensive guide. She was really responsive in the communication. We can really recommend this Chalet. Thank you Caroline!

Très agréable

Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable. Les plus sont le confort, le calme, l'accessibilité à la piste, local à ski avec porte bottines chauffé, pas de vis à vis, spacieux (pour un appartement en station), propre, la propriétaire est charmante et fourni plein d'information utile,... Le moins est pas de ski au pieds, mais on le savait et le trajet n'est vraiment pas pénible. Nous le faisions même en voiture. En arrivant vers 9H 9H30 on pouvait se garer à 20 m du Tele-Siege et revenir à la voiture ski au pieds. On pense sérieusement y retourner.

A Super Find!

We had a great time in Le Bettaix. You are very close to the large resorts of Maribel, Les Menuires and Val Thorens but have the feel of a mountain village. The apartment is extremely well equipped with everything that you might want to find in your own kitchen. The lay-out is clever, comfortably furnished and cosy and warm. The underground garage is great - no de-icing or cold seats! I was very impressed with the thoughtfulness of the owner, Caroline who is quick to respond to any queries and really cares about whether everything is as it should be and that you enjoy your holiday. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property. Great value for money! Julie Ann

Lovely apartment - ideally located with easy access to Three Valleys ski area

The apartment is ideally placed for a ski holiday with easy access to the Three Valleys area, yet in a small French village. It is superbly equipped with everything you need for six people to be comfortable. The owner's attention to detail is very impressive and helped to make the holiday go smoothly. We would recommend it.

Just as it says

The details given about the chalet and the reviews are very accurate. This is a lovely chalet in a smaller, quieter village not far from Menuires. The chalet itself is well equipped and spacious generally, although the third bedroom with the bunk is not big. The balcony is large with a nice view over the stream below. The walk to the chair lift is fine although I did drive a couple of our group up there one day. Snow chains will be necessary if there is a reasonable fall as things can be more challenging once you come off the main road into Le Bettaix itself and particularly up the drive of the chalet. Due to the amount of traffic on our arrival day and the amount in our car we didn't get chance to shop in Moutiers/Albertville. This meant we were up and down to Menuires regularly but that was no problem. WiFi was invaluable for 4 students. We had a lovely stay here and I am happy to recommend it. Also Caroline was very helpful and friendly to deal with.

Beautiful apartment in peace and quiet

This is the most well equipped and best kept apartment we have stayed in in The French Alps. Caroline has thought of everything from a well equipped kitchen to a sofa that you can be comfortable on all evening. We loved watching the birds sitting on the feeder outside the lounge window and we slept peacefully without having late night home comers outside the bedroom window. The walk to the chairlift was manageable but we could easily have driven if we were feeling lazy. There are no local shops so you will need to bring all your food with you and go to Les Menuires for your ski passes before you arrive. We hope to return in the future and explore more of the 3 valleys.

Family skiing holiday

This was without doubt the best skiing accommodation we have ever stayed in. The apartment was accurately described and well maintained with excellent facilities. No detail had been overlooked and for the first time ever..wonderfully comfortable beds (including electric blankets). Le Bettaix is a lovely tranquil village well served by a 2 seat chairlift which allowed easy access to Les Menuires. The lift closes at 4:30 in January and on twoi evenings we went up as foot passengers involving a 5 minute walk to Les Menuires which had fantastic shops and very reasonably priced restaurants. The return trip was a pleasant downhill stroll along the piste. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Caroline's apartment and would happily use it again.

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Noble

Host profile image
I am a retired professional and have loved skiing since I first tried it 48 years ago. I bought the apartment 18 years ago and spend a large part of each season in Le Bettex with friends and family. The apartment is my second home, not a business. I only want to cover costs and rent out for a maximum 5 or 6 weeks per season so hope it makes for a really comfortable and user friendly ski apartment.

Why they chose this property

I wanted to buy somewhere in the mountains for years. I was aiming high, in area, altitude and quality. Le Bettex ticks all the boxes. It's part of the 3 Valleys 600+kms of skiing. I can be in Courchevel before 1100 for coffee starting at the local chair and I can ski home to Le Bettex from the top of Val Thorens (admittedly taking in a bit of cross country track) without using a lift. The apartment is perfectly situated. Le Bettex is a beautiful little village and we have marvellous, uninterrupted views of the mountains. I love the tranquility. There are no enthusiastic kids coming back from the clubs at 0400, no deliveries or through traffic. I always put up a bird feeder, visible from the sitting room and get immense pleasure watching the various birds morning and evening, including a very shy greater spotted woodpecker.

What makes this property unique

My apartment is not typical of French ski apartments. It is really comfortably and fully furnished with paintings on the walls and lined curtains. There are no sofa beds and we have high quality mattresses and bedding, with duvets, two pillows per person and electric under blankets. There is wardrobe space with plenty of hangers and ample storage in all the bedrooms - even the bunk-room which is very snug. There is access to English television channels as well as the French, free Wi-Fi internet and an I-Pod/I-phone compatible sound system. There is a library of English books and a few board games and cards, although I may remove some items to make for easier Covid cleaning.
The kitchen is fully equipped ( food processor, pressure cooker, casseroles ) unlike the bare minimum found in most rental apartments. Apart from the fridge with freezer compartment, there is an upright freezer which is great for your week’s supplies. You should find everything you need, so you can cook as you do at home.
There is a 38 m2 south and west facing terrace, with table and chairs, deckchairs and sun beds for those non skiers to relax in the sun.
