Where to start?? We LOVED our stay in Monts-Chalet, and Sebastien was wonderful. He was attentive to all details, even bringing us sugar for our morning coffee (we forgot to buy it at the coop and we did not have a car), and chocolates to welcome us and to make up for the clouds the day we arrived so that we couldn’t see the beautiful view. Obviously he can’t control the weather and we didn’t blame him for the clouds, but it was just one of the many details that set him apart as a host. He also let us check in a bit early which was so helpful so that our kids could take their afternoon naps. He is also quite responsive - he responded quickly to any questions we had and when he responded he already had a solution for whatever we were asking about. We were a group of 2 small families (our 2 adult friends & their 10-month old, and the 2 of us & our 2.5-year-old & 2 month old baby) and the chalet was perfect for us. It’s new and was so clean that it felt like we were the first to use it. Excellent kitchen, beautiful furniture. The espresso machine is EXCELLENT, my husband was impressed and thrilled - we we live in Italy, so our standards for coffee are pretty high ;-).The tv and wifi work well, there are board/card games supplied. It may sound strange and unimportant but we loved the dishes and glasses! They are beautiful! The washer and dryer in the apartment work quite well and were so helpful for us (we had both been traveling for a while before arriving at the chalet). The view is stunning. It felt like the perfect little getaway vacation for us. It is about a 10/15 minute walk up the hill from the train station (diablerets), but we felt it was completely worth it. We did have a friend who was in the area the day we checked in drive our suitcases up to the chalet, so the 2 times we went up the hill we just had the 2 strollers with the 3 kids and groceries in them, and I’m sure it would have been harder with our luggage but still totally worth it. Going down the hill with all our stuff when we left was easy enough. We wish we had stayed longer (we arrived on Saturday and left on Monday) because we loved it so much and we definitely intend the return in the future! The only potential downside to consider is the walk up IF you don’t have a car. But like I said, for us with 3 young kids and 2 strollers it was still not a problem and was totally worth it. Perhaps Sebastien would have even helped us with a ride if we had asked, but we preferred to walk, we enjoyed the fresh air and exercise and the views. Merçi Sebastien, for allowing us...
