Residence Maeva L'Eyssina

Right in the centre.

We had a wonderful family weekend and I’ll definitely come back. The residence is secure, and the entrance hall is clean, pleasant, and set up with comfortable places to sit. The managers are kind, smiling, and professional. It’s clean and very well located for the shops, restaurants, ski slopes, and toboggan runs. Di Gianni restaurant, if I’ve got the name right, is close by and excellent, with great pizzas and helpful, friendly staff. I highly recommend it.

The location is a plus, close to the slopes and the shop, and there’s a nice large balcony. Each ski room locker has its own room and can be locked, but ours was already full, so two more pairs of skis, let alone snowboards, would have been hard to fit. The room itself was about 20 square meters and meant for five people. A narrow hallway you had to walk through contained bunk beds and a toilet, while the small room had two fold-out sofas. Once one sofa was unfolded, there was barely room to move. After skiing, the mattress under the sofa took up all the space, leaving nowhere to hang wet clothes. I wouldn’t recommend it for couples since there’s no double bed. It might suit people who aren’t too particular. The hotel next door has much larger, more spacious apartments in better condition.

We were two adults and two children, and the basic setup was fine for a week of skiing. There were two single beds in the living room and two bunk beds in the entrance hallway. The residence is about 200 meters from the ski lift, with one uphill and one downhill stretch along the way.
