The Rhone / French Alps / Haute-Savoie region
Only 60km (1 hour ) from Geneva airport, Morillon is more accessible than most French ski resorts and very manageable for even a weekend break.
Home to the Olympic downhill champion, Antoine Deneriaz, Morillon is frequently described as the Alps' best kept secret.
In spite of growth over recent years, the town is relatively uncommercialised and has retained a beautiful French feel.
The Grand Massif / Morillon area
Morillon is the perfect setting to explore the region. Just 40 minutes takes you to Chamonix and Mont Blanc. In the other direction, an hour takes you to the beautiful town of Annecy, and of course Geneva is also just an hour away.
The property is located at Morillon 1100, 400 metres above the traditional village in a purpose built village from where the real skiing of the Grand Massif begins. Just half an hour's skiing takes you to the Flaine Bowl and nearer you have the choice of the slopes of not only Morillon, but also Samoens, Les Carroz and Sixt.
The pistes are perfect from beginners up and the children's nursery in the resort is superb, holding the official “Famille Plus Montagne” label for the excellent children facilities in the “Village des Enfants”
In the resort, there is a small selection of restaurants and bars, a few shops and a mini-supermarket .
In the summer, there are numerous activities to enjoy. The chair lift just outside the apartment is open in July and August to go mountain walking and down the mountain you will find horse riding, bicycle hire, numerous sports activities and enjoy beautiful drives through the mountains to nearby villages such as Morzine and Les Gets. See www.ot-morillon.fr for more information on the resort’s winter and summer activities.

Reviews
 05 Jan 2012 |
We have just arrived home from an amazing week's skiing here. The apartment is spacious and well equipped with a nice big tv and dvd player, games etc. Kitchen great, meals for 8 no problem. It has a locker room with ski in/out which was fantastic ans so easy. The view out of the lounge window is unbeatable, we loved watching the chairlifts and skiers plus taking in the amazing mountain scenery. Supermarket and ski hire minutes away. We are a group of mixed ability skiers and also of age and the resort suited everyone perfectly, there is something for everybody here. Highly recommended. |
