We have just returned from Samoen and a brilliant ski holiday. Absolute Alpine is a great company, the staff are incredibly friendly and will do everything possible to make the stay perfect. The Grand Massif proved to be a great ski resort and we had superb snow. Steve drops you to the gondola in the mornings, picks you up in... More

We have just returned from our trip and cannot recommend the owners of absolute alpine highly enough. We stayed in the chalet la Roche which comprised a chalet with 4 bedrooms (2 with ensuite) with an apartment beneath. We were two families comprising 7 adults and 2 children so opted for the 4 bed chalet. Another family had the apartment... More

Alexander and I had a boys week away ski-ing and it was our best ever. From the pick-up at the airport to the drop off a week later we were treated like kings the whole time. The food was perfect every night. Alexander and I still can't choose the best meal as it was all so delicicious. Lee is a... More

Excellent holiday again. It's is the second year that we have stayed with Absolute Alpine. This year only 10 of us managed to meet up. Last year Absolute Alpine catered for at least 26 people in the same group . The accommodation, food, and attention to detail has been excellent on both occasions. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The... More

We've just returned from a really great skiing holiday in Samoens. Having a lovely warm cosy, clean chalet/apartment to come back to after a day skiing is a very significant part of our holiday and Absolute Alpine certainly didn't let us down. Steve, Sam and Kate provide a very professional service, from beginning to end. When we arrived we were... More

Our group was composed of a complete mix of family and friends, skiiers and non-skiiers, and all ages from 9 months upwards. Samoens is also a sweet little village, with great slopes nearby for all levels of skiier or snowboarder, and... More

We spent a week with Absolute Alpine in August..... for the 3rd year running. The chalets are beautiful and the food and service provided by Steve, Sam, Kate and the team are second-to-none. It was a truly relaxing experience for us and our children and choosing the catered option meant that we could spend time as a family without having... More

Not even slightly tempted to give our stay in the Grand Ourse anything less than five stars. As with others, we found the food second to none, the service amazing and the facilities superb. A fantastic week of paragliding, kayaking, cycling, hiking and relaxing - highly recommendable.

My wife and I spent a week in July with absolute alpine in Apartment La Roche. Upon arrival we were blown away with the quality of the apartment, the service provided by Steve and Kate and the 'here to help' attitude. Perfect location for the town, amazing views and cannot recommend absolute alpine enough. We will be back many times... More
