Résidence Lagrange Vacances L'Arollaie

Stayed April 2023. Couldn't be happier with the location, right next to the gondola going to La Plagne ski area and a chair lift going to Les Arcs area, couldn't be in a better location to explore all of Paradiski! Friendly staff, we arrived from the overnight Eurostar with very little sleep, as our apartment was already ready we were able to check in early rather than wait until the afternoon. This made a big difference to us on our first day and meant we didn't have to worry about leaving our luggage somewhere while we enjoyed our first day on the slopes. The apartment was clean and we had a great view over the valley from our balcony. No issues with the inventory, there were a couple of bits of crockery and cutlery missing but we completed the inventory form and noted it and as a result were not charged for any damages etc at the end of our stay. The security of the property was very good. Codes to enter changed weekly, and we had our own lockable closet in the ski room to secure our skis, boots, helmets, goggles, etc. I would definitely book here again. The only minor downsides were: The swimming pool area was a little on the cooler side, not unbearable but not as pleasant as it could have been if the room was heated a degree or two warmer. The billiards area closes at 7pm. If we had been at full occupancy in our apartment I imagine the evenings would have been a little cramped, but as there were 3 of us in an apartment that could sleep 6 we had enough room to relax. The kitchen was on the small side. No surface area for meal prepping unless we used the draining board or hob area. The microwave/oven was quite high above the fridge, having to reach up to remove hot things didn't feel quite safe. The nearest shops and restaurants are a few minutes' walk away, and we loved the local bakery/deli, but I wouldn't recommend this resort for anyone looking for après ski.

Room for 6 with one bathroom, nothing to hang your towels or dry them. Worst sofa we ever tried, seats only 3… uncomfortable. Small badly designed kitchen. For the price it was a rip-off.

Beds were uncomfortable, sofa was uncomfortable (and tiny), you have to pay a cleaning charge when you leave despite being required to basically half clean the apartment before you leave anyway. Brush and mop were provided but no cloths or other cleaning supplies. Swimming pool was nice but not warm. Only benefits were how close it was to the piste and the view from the balcony.
