We can’t talk about this apartment without talking about the location. A short walk takes you to either the Super Morzine or the Pléney lifts, giving access to the whole of the Portes du Soleil area. Plus the shops, including the local supermarket and boulangerie, are within a four minutes walk and for the nights you can’t be bothered to cook, some of the town’s best bars and restaurants are almost on your doorstep.

If you do decide to cook, a well-equipped kitchen makes cooking up something tasty an absolute breeze — and with a Nespresso machine and dishwasher, not only are there no fights about who does the washing up, but you can relax over a cup of excellent coffee instead.

After dinner, if the bars of Morzine don’t appeal, hunker down in front of the latest Netflix release on the HD smart TV, or just slope off to one of the comfortable bedrooms. The two spacious rooms can be made up as either a king sized bed or twins, and the en-suite bathrooms mean that no one needs to wait for the shower.

Decent amounts of storage in all rooms mean ample space for stashing your stuff — although there’s a washing machine and tumble dryer if you’d rather pack light, and a ski locker and boot dryer which keeps soggy kit out of the way.

If you’re planning on driving, there is private underground parking at the property, and if you’re coming in the summer and want to bring your bikes, there is secure bike storage and bike wash facilities.

If you’re travelling as a larger group, it’s worth knowing that there are several other Montana apartments within the same building (Apartment Montana 1 and Apartment Montana 2) that can sleep a total of 29 people in all. And, if you love the location and the style of Apartment Montana 3 but it’s booked up for the week you had in mind, do take a look at Apartment Montana 4 — it’s just next door and offers very similar amenities and accommodation.
