We had an amazing time staying at Emma’s apartment and I would thoroughly recommend it. The apartment is the perfect size for two people on holiday, and has all the facilities you could need and it is set in the most beautiful location as well. Emma is a brilliant host and answered all of my questions really quickly (and I ask a lot of questions), and I’m gutted that I didn’t get to meet her is person as she seems lovely.

We were staying for a week at the end of April and arrived by train from Geneva airport. The train journey was really easy and is a very relaxing way to start the holiday. We did have a few problems trying to get a taxi once we got to Les Diablerets so I would recommend booking a taxi well in advanced. But it wasn’t a problem as one of the locals gave us a lift (everyone is super friendly!). It might have been easier to have a car to get shopping and firewood etc., but the public transport is so good that we really didn’t find it a problem at all and I think all the walking helped burn off all the cheese we ate.

I cannot express how beautiful the scenery is from the balcony and how peaceful and relaxing it was staying there. It really is a stunning place to stay. We stayed in at home several nights as we were on a tight budget and the kitchen is well equipped for cooking nice meals, and the apartment is really nice and comfy and cosy – especially when the log fire is burning. The bed is also very comfortable, the bathroom is nicely decorated and has a good shower; and its all super clean. The location is also great as there is a bus that goes to Glacier 3000 from the end of the road, and the trains run every hour as well. The town itself is very nice, and we enjoyed some lovely food and wine in the local restaurants and bars. We went at the end of season so some of the local facilities were closed, but we still went snowboarding, skiing, hiking and sightseeing so there is plenty to do even off season.

All in all it’s a truly amazing place to stay with beautiful scenery and a fantastic host. I hope you have as much fun as we did!
