Sitting above the Meribel ski resort, the Pierre & Vacances Crets Residence is one of our finest residences in the French Alps following a recent renovation: apartments have been enlarged and redecorated in warm colours, and top-of-the-range furnishings and equipment installed.
A cosy retreat perched in a mountain setting to make you feel cut off from the world (or almost!) Snow-capped peaks. Magical scenery. This is what's on offer when you stay at our Les Crêts Premium residence.
Here, at 1,750 m altitude, you can get closer to the mountain tops. The 4-star residence offers incredible views over the Vanoise National Park and the Tueda nature reserve forests. It's breathtakingly beautiful!
Set slightly apart in the wooded surroundings of a quiet area of Méribel-Mottaret, the residence is built in a traditional Savoyard style and is imbued with the intimate atmosphere this creates. It's ski-in/ski-out, so you'll be on the slopes in a few turns.
Every day, you'll head back to your cosy mountain apartment and be able to enjoy incredible views over Lake Tueda. The interior decoration combines the elegance of the wood with modern design. The residence is located in a quiet setting and offers many services to help make your stay a pleasant one: ski-in, ski-out access to all ski lifts, close proximity to the funicular railway, special welcome gifts, Wi-Fi in all apartments and much, much more.
