Résidence Pierre & Vacances Electra

Avoriaz

Staff fantastic and very helpful and attentive 
Location great either way ski to and from . 
We changed apartment on morning as disappointing at first, hotel reception sorted and we were happy .. Booking again to return same week 2025  
Tres Bon

So Happy with this Apartment Block we are returning a year later ..

Just stayed in Electra apartments for 1 week. 

Good points are..
Great location
Good ski in/ski out 
Apartment is a good size for 2 people 
Good views from apartment balcony
Staff friendly on reception 

Bad points..
The apartment is very unclean, dusty, cobwebs and fusty smelling.
No replacement clean towels for the whole week.
The beds are single beds and very uncomfortable.
The apartment is very noisy, constant banging all day and night, not sure if this was from residents or maintenance,  but we was woke up every morning from about 6.30/7am from banging noises.

Honest Review of Electra apartments.

First time we have stopped in this hotel;

Rooms;

Plenty of room for a 2 adults and 2 children (11 &8). There is a separate bedroom, with two single beds and wardrobe space. In the Lounge, there is a microwave, Hob, plenty of utensils , plates and cups. There are two sofa beds, one turns into a double, so plenty of room for 2 adults and still space to sit on the other sofa.  There is also a table and chairs, so you can eat comfortably.

There is also a ski room, with a locker for your room, so no need to take the skis to the room, easy access. 

Location;

I don't think there is a bad location to stay in Avoriaz. All are ski in and ski out, this was no exception. Skis straight on and away you go. Close to all bars and restaurants and 2 min skiing to the lift.



Fantastic for families

P&V Crozats. Apologies for this lengthy post but hopefully it will help information-wise!  We travelled from Geneva to Avoriaz on 28 December. Firstly the transfers. We looked at all options, car hire, shared transfers and taxis. The prices were broadly similar but used a comparison site (ski transfers) who were v good however you need to book quite speedily as when returned to previous quote that was no longer available. Car hire was expensive and to be honest it would have sat in the parking all week. Parking is about €100 for the week and pre booking strongly advised. When we came up the mountain in our transfer they had closed the roads as Avoriaz was full! Presume they were allowing pre booked through however. When you arrive at the various transfer points there are horses and sleighs waiting to take you. With P&V Electra the transfer was included. On your return you will need to call them when you are ready to go but ensure you have the voucher from reception. They then come and pick you up. Our transfer was waiting for us at 0515 and worked v well. It was cheaper than most at €480 and the minibus would have seated 8 but more like 6 with baggage. V friendly efficient service and I would recommend. ALPE1 transfer des Montagnes.  Messaged via WhatsApp to advise where he was waiting for pick up and the transfer took 1hr45/50. We were v limited in choice due to the early pick up on return. Arrived at Electra and reception was closed (approx noon) but we were aware of this and checked in next door which is only a few metres away. Fast check in and we were handed the keys. 9th floor beautiful view. However the room smelled bad and the bin was still full. We later realised this was because the clean hadn’t been done as the men arrived to sort it out and were somewhat confused that we were there! They were v friendly and sorted the smell/cleaned etc.  We decided to see if our skis were ready. Booked in advance online with Skiset situated on the ground floor. Again v efficient friendly service and we had our skis and boots by 1.30! Headed to sort out ski passes however they had sold out for the day so ended up buying online as it is cheaper and heading to the village for a drink in the sunshine. Avoriaz was super busy because the resorts below had no snow cover (first time in 45 years) so all and sundry were coming to ski there.  Be aware of this and book your passes in advance if necessary!  We felt v lucky to be staying in Avoriaz rather than Morzine/Les Gets/Lindarets etc. The ski in ski out works amazingly well albeit the snow cover could have been manually bolstered as the conditions were variable with some rain which wasn’t good for the snow in the village! However the Crozats is higher up. The escalators up and down are v temperamental. There wasn’t one day where they all worked so if you have any mobility issues bear that in mind. You can have the sledges taxi service. In so far as the rooms were concerned they are basic. You’re paying high prices for Avoriaz and not for luxury accommodation. It is very practical though and the views and location suited us perfectly. It was spacious but with five people would be a squash and a squeeze.  There was a small bedroom with shelves and two singles then a walkway with wardrobe and hanging space and mirror. Bathroom with adjustable shower over the bath, sink and a small heater that was perfect for drying out wet kit albeit did get v hot! Separate wc opposite and door through to kitchen with electric hob, microwave with grill etc and kettle and toaster. Dishwasher with tablets and cleaning stuff/wash up liquid and scourer/tea towels.  Corner dining area with mirror behind and sofas that become beds. Beds were v comfortable. Have to make them up yourself but plenty of sheets. Was quite warm and we slept with the door open a bit. Lovely to come into the warm after skiing and apres ski though!  Large fridge and freezer above and v easy to cater in if you don’t want to be out for expensive dinners every evening.  Would recommend Fountain Blancs and Le Cabane (sushi v nice and a change from the heavy Savoyard cheese and meat!), steakhouse 155, burgers at Shooters. To be fair we ate at most places and they were all great.   NYE v special with street bars and fireworks but book dinner as soon as you can to have full choice. If you’re a large group I’d advise booking lunches and dinners particularly on the mountain. Lindarets lovely range of restaurants for lunches. Igloo Village just above the ski lifts (on way back to Tours lift to get home) is great fun. Le Folie Douce hosts an amazing outdoor terrace party with live dj and singers at the finish of the ski day until about 1800. Le Yeti next door enables watching the party and enjoying the music too. Friendly service and chilled vibe. Le Roc down the hill at Dromonts has bowling and other pub sports but was mega busy when we were there. Aquariaz looked lovely but we skied so didn’t try it out. There’s loads to do for kids.  The room didn’t have hairdryer or iron but you could borrow this from reception. Skiing was challenging but limited due to the lower resorts being mostly closed so the Avoriaz ski pass would have been sufficient. Swiss Wall was closed but the restaurant next to it is worth getting over to. It sits on the border. Piste bashing could be better. At times the slopes were lots of soft moguls and became boggy and busy. There were quieter slopes but you had to really seek them out. The black runs weren’t open pushing almost everyone onto the blues which when busy is a nightmare due to the speedy racing skiers thrill seeking alongside the beginners.  Overall I would very much recommend Avoriaz and the Electra. We were a little unlucky with the snow but very much more fortunate than those trying to ski from Morzine or Les Gets etc. it’s a beautiful village, can be noisy, take your snow boots to trudge about in, I ended up wearing them every night rather than smarter boots as they were the only practical option!  Don’t dilly dally in Geneva airport too much before passport control, large slow queues and lots of stressy people wondering if they’d make their flights!
