Chalet Arnica
Ideally located minutes from the heart of the village of Samoens (400m), stunning 4* Chalet Arnica is set in a quiet location amongst other large chalets. It is less than a mile from the Grand Massif Express high-capacity gondola and 100m from the outdoor ice-rink and bus stop for the free resort shuttle bus.
Chalet Arnica is a recently built, imposing 200m2 chalet built to a very high specification with extensive use of wood. The owners of the chalet actually own a high-end chalet construction company so they know what they are talking about!
The interior is bright and spacious with an emphasis on natural light.
