Really good communication from our host. Loved having the pool and sauna facilities. The new sofa bed was very comfortable for our very tall son!

Perfect location, clean and cosy!
This is a great apartment right the centre of the town. We had a car but the ski bus stops right outside the front door. We had a short stay here and everything was so easy. Would definitely come back again.

Dear Andrew, thank you for your review. It is so easy to ski in this area isn't it! Glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come back again soon, and if you are on Facebook, look up Apartment Marmottes for offers and updates of our lovely apartment. Thanks again. Jo
First time in Les Carroz. We were extremely happy to find this charming apartment. Jo was so helpful and made sure everything was just right. It is very close to the centre of the village, supermarket and the ski bus stop. Lovely place for a couple or family. Might be a squeeze for 6 adults! We would go back again
A great property with some fantastic skiing, and right in the middle of the town with pool, sauna and steam (unusual for the Grand Massif Area). Host was amazing to work with and was flexible with dates. Going to try and come back with the kids very soon. (We also had a fair amount of fun with the electric bin)

Haha, the bin! I just put new batteries in the week before but I should have for warned you it’s sensitive 😆
So glad you enjoyed the apartment, facilities and area. We’re totally biased of course but please come back with the children whenever you can.
Thanks for staying
Skiing was great, fantastic location, but the downside was the apartment was small for five people, even though we had two bathrooms, we only had one toilet, also reception none of the staff spoke good English, it was quite hard work.
Nice restaurant in town called Marlow, but needed to be booked
Owner Joanne was great to keep us inform with all information.
Merci pour votre réservation. L'appartement est parfaitement situé à quelques pas du centre du village et pourtant pas bruyant du tout. Nous aimons pouvoir nous promener à la maison après un verre ou un dîner si facilement, sans conduire !
Hôte très aimable, réactif et arrangeant. Appartement très bien situé au centre, plutôt petit pour cinq mais confortable.

Merci pour votre commentaire. Vivre à cinq dans un appartement de deux chambres, même avec un canapé-lit, est toujours un peu serré, mais je suis ravie que vous ayez trouvé notre appartement confortable. C'était notre objectif avec les nouveaux matelas et le linge de lit.
Nous avons passez un excellent séjour aux Carroz dans cet appartement extrêmement bien placé au calme proche de toutes commodités. Nous avons pu profiter également de la piscine qui se trouve à quelques pas de l’appartement. Idéal pour une semaine de voyage au ski en famille ou entre amis

Te klein appartement voor te veel geld
Les Carroz was een mooi klein plaatsje. Het appartement was zeer klein en verouderd. Het was redelijk schoon, de keukenkastjes helaas niet. De bedden en douches waren, voor Nederlandse lengtes, te kort/klein. Voor ons geen herhaling.

Ah the blessings and curses of being over 6ft tall!
I am sorry if you felt our traditional, very French style apartment (identical to every other in the complex) was not modern enough for you, or the beds long enough for your height.
There is not much we can do about this as the extra large queen we have is the largest bed you will find in France to my knowledge.
So glad you enjoyed Les Carroz though, a classic working French village in the mountains, very hard not to love!
Appartement très bien situé au centre de la station, très propre et bien équipé.

Merci pour vos commentaires et nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié l'appartement et son emplacement. J'espère que vous avez également réussi à profiter de la piscine et de la patinoire pendant votre séjour. Sinon, il y a toujours la prochaine fois !
L'appartement est comme decrit sur le site et tres bien situe dans la station. Avec son casier a skis tres proche et la piscine de la residence, il offre un sejour au ski tres agreable pour une famille / groupe de 4 personnes.
Nous etions 5 et c'etait tres bien pour juste un WE mais je recommande l'appartement pour 4 car le salon est asez petit.
Il manque une machine a cafe (type Nespresso pour les amateurs) mais sinon l'appartement est tres bien equipe, et comprenait linges de toilette, papier WC et des epices pour cuisiner...etc
Nous y retournerons :)
Super séjour dans cet appart !
Le propriétaire est très réactif en cas de questions
Seul bémol, peu de place dans les placards de cuisine pour ranger nos provisions et le sèche serviette de la salle de bain qui ne fonctionne pas

Merci pour votre avis, je suis ravi que vous ayez apprécié votre séjour dans l'appartement. L'espace est toujours un problème dans les petites cuisines, mais j'espère que le grand réfrigérateur vous a offert une option et j'espère que vous avez utilisé les offres dans les placards qui vous ont été laissés. Comme mentionné à votre arrivée, nous avions espéré remplacer le porte-serviettes avant votre séjour, mais le temps ne le permettait pas car nous vous avons laissé entrer 4 heures plus tôt que prévu. J'espère que vous étiez bien au chaud grâce aux 4 autres radiateurs de l'appartement. Revenez à tout moment Marjorie et sa famille!
Bel appartement compact et fonctionnel, avec très bon emplacement pour ttes les activités proposées sur Les Carroz-d’Arâches. Pas besoin de la voiture pendant le séjour
Nous avons passé un superbe week end dans cet appartement. Très propre, emplacement parfait, avec de très belles prestations (grandes piscines, spas, saunas, hammams, salle de sport, détente...)
Je recommande fortement, on y retournera avec plaisir :)
Très bien placé dans le village , 2 chambres, 2 salles de bains, ambiance montagne pour la deco, piscine pour les jours de mauvais temps...
Petit appartement très sympa!
Nous y retournerions volontier!

So pleased you enjoyed the apartment Angela. We love the central position and the ease of being able to wander to the shops or enjoy ice skating right outside. And of course the bus stop right outside is very convenient! Do come back next year. Jo
About the host
Hosted by Jo Ramsden
We bought Apartment Marmottes in Spring 2015 as our first ski venture, so that our family can enjoy this amazing resort more often. We hope you enjoy it just as much.
Until Jan 2025 we shared the apartment with friends but we are very excited to now own it outright and have undergone a refresh, replacing; beds, linen, Sofabed, fridge, microwave, hob and soft furnishings for all to enjoy.
Adam & I live on the south coast of England with our 3 girls, Jessie, Ava and Edie who are now teenagers and learnt to ski in Les Carroz. Adam is a semi-retired snowboarder and the whole family now ski.

The town has several good ski rental and clothing shops, a good mix of small supermarkets and local food shops for all daily essentials. Le Grand Massif is one of the largest linked ski regions in Europe, so whatever your level and style, you will not be bored.
