Centrally located in Alpe d'Huez and only a couple of minutes from the closest slope, the Sarenne is a nice, spacious chalet with some awesome views from the south facing balcony and the hot tub . With an open plan lounge and en-suite bedrooms to sleep up to 11, see if you can book the chalet for sole occupancy and have it to yourselves.
I'd give it 4.5 or 5 out of 5 if it wasn't for the super high end (and four times the price) chalets in our range which are in a slightly different league...
We have two chalet's called Sarenne in Alpe d'Huez, operated by different hosts, so be sure you know which one you're booking, as the other one is slightly higher spec and therefore usually a little more expensive.

The chalet was alright. The problem was that it wasn’t as good as we thought it would be. I wouldn’t rate it as a 4 ½ star chalet, it’s a 2½ star or 3 star at best. For example the three of us had a quad room at the top and the bathroom was very small for 3 of us. The shower was tiny, it was just a bath you knelt down in, you couldn’t stand up.
We got this as a last minute deal. I think everyone in the chalet agreed that for the value it wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t what we wanted. We would have preferred to spend more money for a better quality chalet. It was mediocre.
The food was alright. The staff were very young.
There are two different chalets called Sarenne in Alpe d’Huez and so when I googled the chalet the pictures and reviews I read were mainly for a different chalet, which looks like a nicer one, so that was disappointing.
