…we receive unsolicited e-mails from clients. The Duboc family, who stayed at Chalet Kiana a week or so ago, were kind enough to send us the following message in a recent e-mail:
“I just wanted to tell you how much we liked your chalet it was really a pleasure to spend a week there especially with the wonderful weather we had !!
your chalet is perfect for a big family and is fully equipped with everything we need congratulations it s very pleasant to arrive and find such a place !”
That’s it; unadulterated, cut-and-paste from their e-mail.
What a pleasure!
We’ve been busy this winter (& summer!), or rather Chris & Jenny have. After re-grouting all the bathrooms in the summer, they got to work organising new carpets to be fitted in the chalet, where any signs of wear & tear had appeared (e.g. the stairs up to the top floor), and in the apartment, where both bedrooms were treated to new carpets.
Then they welcomed in the Les Contamines polisars, who drew up a long list of all the items & changes needed for the ‘classement‘. This long list having been knocked off, item by item, the chalet reached its 4* rating (5* was only possible if the ensuite bathrooms had separate loos, which isn’t going to happen!). The apartment made it to 3*, which wasn’t a great leap (it only meant buying a vacuum cleaner!). 4* for the apartment would have meant installing a washing machine, which we probably will do in the summer.
So, if you want to see what 4* looks like, take a look at the new sofa and armchairs, which arrived last week…
