Chalet Hibou is a spacious warm apartment sleeping 8 people, offering a high standard of comfort, and in a great position just 6 minutes from walk the SuperMorzine lift and the Bourg area of Morzine. In addition, the views from the lounge picture windows and balcony are amazing - you can see the whole panorama of the Pleney and Nyon mountains! 

The apartment is on two levels; the main and lower floor of a small apartment building, and there is a parking place right by the front door, so is also ideal for people with limited mobility. On the main floor is the big kitchen, with all the equipment you could need for self-catering; a spacious warm lounge with fireplace and comfortable sofas; large dining table; three bedrooms (two twins, and one king) and two shower rooms each with WC. Downstairs from the entrance hall is a further large double bedroom with new super-king bed and deep mattress, ensuite bathroom with bath, WC and separate shower, and the ski storage area and boot dryers. The chalet has central heating and ample hot water. 

We manage two other properties in the building: Pigeonnier 1 (sleeps max 8) and Pigeonnier 2 (sleeps max 6) so if you book early enough the building is ideal for big groups!

We're available by email or phone from the moment you book, and we can give you information on all the resort facilities and services. I (Rachel) will be the person who checks you in on arrival and will probably be the one that checks you out too - I live 10 mins down the road inEssert Romand. We've been running Mountain Highs for 30 years now so we've amassed a wealth of knowledge about Morzine, the locals and the wider area!
