A beautiful, not too large ski resort and friendly quaint town. Samoens has all you need if you just want to ski and have nice food. It is not insanely busy nor is the place for bustling apres. Very good for families and groups of skiers/boarders of all levels.

Was not as much snow the week I went but still plenty of long runs open, pistes are fun and well maintained, there's always beginner snow parks open to try some jumps, and you can easily access other resorts in the mountain
