Stay here in Feb 23 with extended family - 15 of us in all - 7 young children and 8 adults. Had an absolutely amazing time. Chalet is excellently appointed - great bedrooms, spacious lounge, separate TV area where we parked the kids. hot tub and sauna were great. Catering was fantastic and Alex and Lucy were very gracious hosts and very patient with our complex needs! chalet is well located and they run a quick shuttle service to all of the main lifts - they know the ins and outs of the piste map too so very easy to plan the day. would highly recommend.

We cannot thank Lucie and Alex enough for making our special day extraordinary. From the first zoom meeting we had, they were passionate, dedicated and friendly. They helped us every step of the way, coming up with details we haven't thought about and finding local suppliers for flowers, wines, ... On the wedding day, they ensured that everything was going smoothly. Attentive and discreet, they had the perfect balance to make sure every guest was catered for. The chalet itself was immaculate and the view spectacular. We particularly enjoyed the living room and its impressive fireplace. Watch out for Lucie's moreish brownies.

This chalet has EVERYTHING and MORE! All necessities and extra gadgets that you didn’t realise you needed for a fun time. The owners are absolute gems, so caring, passionate, genuine. They just want their guests to have a great time, and our group of 16 had an AMAZING time - cooking in the grand kitchen, enjoying the jacuzzi and sauna, sitting around the fireplace, drinking coffee on the balcony, looking up at the stars from the bath tub. This place is just unreal. We will be back again and again ❤️

From the moment we arrived, Alex and Lucie made us feel so welcome and so comfortable in their gorgeous chalet. Nothing was too much trouble and the lifts to and from the Gondola each day were very much appreciated, especially when we got a bit lost and dragged poor Alex all over the Grand Massif. The chalet itself is very comfortable and felt like a home from home. The hot tub and sauna were ready and waiting each evening along with Lucie's gorgeous cakes and cookies (Thank God skiing is an active holiday to work off some of the calories). Our ski's were delivered the day we arrived by Becky and Jonathon of Ski Hire Samoens and they were a pleasure to deal with. All in all, our group of 5 really enjoyed our ski trip in Samoens and will definitely be recommending Ferme du Ciel to friends and family without hesitation. Thanks Alex & Lucie and we look forward to the next time!…

The challenges of hosting a family of twelve, across three generations, were met superbly by the hosts and their amazing chalet. We chose Ferme du Ciel because it offered excellent communal space for large parties and we weren't disappointed. It is spacious and decorated in contemporary style and makes you feel at home and special at the same time. Loved it and had a great time.

My family and I (twelve) and our many allergies (10) stayed at FdC for Christmas 2019. Ages ranged from 4 to 68 and our dietary needs would get us expelled from many a restaurant! Instead, we enjoyed a brilliant week during which everything worked, nothing was too much trouble for hosts or catering staff and somewhere between skiing and sledging we enjoyed an ideal family holiday. At the end, Andrew (the co-owner) asked us what they could have done to make our stay even better. Our collective answer says it all - "nothing!"

We have just returned from a week with our family of 7 adults and 5 children. It was possibly the most important week of the year, what with it being Christmas, and we unanimously agree that we couldn’t have had a better holiday. Andre and Su went to extraordinary lengths before we arrived to ensure we were catered for and prepared our mixed ability group of skiers for our week on the slopes and that our 1 non skier was going to enjoy herself as much as the skiers. Everything was very well explained to us and the attention to the details that can make or break a family holiday were more than covered. Once we arrived, the hospitality continued and we had a truly fantastic ‘holiday’ in every sense of the word. The chalet is beautiful, comfortable and happily absorbed our group. We benefitted enormously not only from Su and Andrew’s considerable experience and customer service but also from their understanding of what our group needed. We can’t recommend the chalet, the hosts or the resort highly enough. If you are lucky enough to be planning your holiday with them, we know you will have a wonderful time. Sincere thank you from us all and wishing the team at Ferme du Ciel and very Happy and Prosperous New Year.…

My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend the Ferme to anyone. It was truly luxury accommodation, with particular mention for the quality of food and service. Sue was very warm and welcoming, and both Robin and Ashlyn were exemplary host and cook respectively. The chalet is about a 7-8min drive to the main ski lift (GME).

We were a group of 9 staying at Ferme du Ciel for the first time. 4 adults and 5 children ranging from 5 years old to 12. From the moment we were picked up at Geneva to the moment we (sadly) had to leave we were attended to perfectly in every way. The chalet was every bit as wonderful as it had appeared on the website and the service we received during our stay was perfect - very attentive but never intrusive, leaving us thoroughly spoiled yet with enough space to enjoy the chalet as if it were our own for the week... The food was outstanding and catered for all our tastes... I would recommend Ferme du Ciel without hesitation.
