Résidence premium Les Crêts Pierre & Vacances

總體比較一般

There are many ski villages in Les3Valles where you can stay. We love Meribel Mottaret where it is comparatively quiet (not the busiest) and reasonably convenient. Les Crets is run by Pierre & Vacances which is honestly pricy (may be because we booked late) but overall a good stay. The apartment is not located in the village center but very convenient because of the round the clock funicular connection. Luckily, the funicular worked smoothly for our 1-week stay. Everything you have is good: the private carpark (paid), the ski room, the ski out access (only for intermediate skiers and above, the reception, the room, its views and facilities. The only issue is the hot water supply which is normal for most of the time. Just when it comes to the peak hours (like morning time when all skiers are rushed to go out), the hot water is not really hot and requires some wait. Overall, we have an excellent and enjoyable stay in Les Crets!

We stayed at Les Crêts with my parents and my young children right after the school holidays. The appartements were ok albeit could have been cleaner. The residence is solely dependent on a lift to get customers to the pistes, children ski classes, shops and restaurants. The lift broke down half way through our stay and wasn’t repaired for 4 days. The staff did not care one bit and refused to arrange shuttle transfers. We had to walk down and up an icy road with no pavement throughout carrying kids and skis for 20 min each way for 3 full days. No compensation was given. Avoid at all cost.

We stayed in pierre & vacances Le Tueda previously and this time opted for a larger premium accommodation at Les Crets for our family of four. This flat had three bedrooms and two bathrooms and was pretty spacious for this style accommodation. We stayed in room D124 which although on ground floor was close to boot room which stepped straight on to a short path to the piste, and also had easy access to the ground floor drop off for luggage & arrivals. You can ski-in out of this place via red run Aigle which during our stay was usually in poor condition by the end of the day (its one of the major arterial runs connecting couchevel-meribel and has heavy traffic). Access can be gained to the accommodation by a dedicated lift but this was out of order on a least 3 separate occasions during our visit this time ( and also previously) . It's not a major problem unless you have little ones or others that can't ski reds and need to carry ski gear back up the road if the lift is out of order. We found the reception staff to be very friendly & professional and very tolerant of out pathetic attempts at French speaking. Some aspects of the rooms were a bit tired ( door knobs all need tightening for starters!) and a DVD player would have been handy for evenings when we didn't eat out. I didn't like the way P&V dealt with us following our booking during the covid closure (2020) and i was reluctant to re-book with P&V as a result. However, this time we had a great family holiday & I would stay at les crets again.

Property is well located for ski in and ski out and accommodation was very comfortable and had all necessary amenities. Staff were responsive and helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Never a 4 star property. We arrived mid-afternoon and the reception was closed. Not just the reception desk but the entire building. Had to wait outside in the cold with our luggage for over an hour until we were eventually given our key. The apartment is supposed to be for 6, but we struggled for space as a family of 4. There is one toilet but two bathrooms, not ideal. You are required to clean the kitchen and strip beds prior to departure. There is no where to get a drink, not even a coffee, even if there was the reception building is closed most of the day. Safe to say we won’t be rushing back.
