Cosy apartment five minutes on foot from the Ovronnaz thermal baths

The apartment

The apartment is on Route de Chevalley, in the municipality of Leytron, in a quiet neighbourhood of Ovronnaz. It is on the lower ground floor: you reach it by going down some thirty steps, with no lift, and it opens onto a sheltered outdoor area at the edge of the lawn, with the mountains opposite.

Inside, the feel is Alpine and soft: white walls, dark exposed beams, light tiled floors, blond wood in the kitchen and on the furniture, and a few nods to the mountains, with framed prints of a stag and a sledge, pink throws and fur cushions. It is a simple, well-kept apartment, the kind you are glad to come back to after a day outdoors: everything is within reach, nothing is superfluous.

The living room and dining area

The living room is the bright room of the apartment. The lounge area brings together a large light-coloured sofa, a black coffee table, a cow-shaped pouffe and the television on a wooden unit. Wifi covers the apartment, to plan the next day's outings or watch a film after the baths.

For meals, a long wooden table on a black frame, with its benches and stools, sits between the kitchen and the lounge: four people can have breakfast there without squeezing in, and it is the natural place to spread out the hiking maps in the evening.

One bedroom for four: double bed and bunk beds

The bedroom holds all the beds: a light wood double bed, under the window with its sheer curtains that opens onto the hedge and the mountains, and two single beds stacked as bunks, with storage drawers under the lower one. Parents on one side, children on the other: it is the ideal layout for a couple with two children, or for two or three adults.

With four adults, the apartment becomes tight, and a guest in February 2026 says so honestly in her review, while keeping fond memories of her family winter holiday. If you would rather the children slept in a separate room, our apartment on Route des Bains has a small adjoining room with a bunk bed.

Sheets, duvet covers and household linen are included, and hangers await your clothes. The apartment has blackout blinds for the mornings when you would rather not get up with the sun.

The kitchen and the bathroom

The kitchen is compact and practical, in blond wood under tiles with a flower pattern: Miele oven and hob, fridge and freezer, electric kettle, toaster, kitchen utensils and a baking tray, and coffee. Enough to cook proper meals during your stay, to be served at the big table in the living room or outside, under the awning.

There is neither a dishwasher nor a microwave: dishes are done by hand, which remains reasonable for four. If these two appliances matter to you, our apartment on Route des Bains has both. The well-kept bathroom has a shower cubicle, a washbasin and the toilet.

The outdoor area facing the mountains

This is the extra room of the apartment, in the warmer months as well as on sunny winter days. Right outside the apartment, a dining area sheltered under an awning, with its wooden table and chairs; on the lawn lined with hedges and flowers, sun loungers turned towards the peaks.

Several guests mention the mountain view in their reviews, and guests in July 2026 describe having breakfast there in the morning and dinner in the evening, facing the landscape. In winter, snow covers the lawn and the ridges opposite stand out against the blue sky.

The neighbourhood: the baths on foot, trails all around

Route de Chevalley is five minutes on foot from the Ovronnaz thermal baths: you go there without taking the car, for the pools or a massage, and come back relaxed without having to look for a parking space. Of our two addresses in Ovronnaz, it is the one nearest the baths.

For walking, hikes and bisses start from the resort, towards the Muverans and the alpine pastures, and guests who come for the trails talk about them in their reviews. In winter, the ski lifts are about 300 m away for those who want to get their skis on for a day.

The neighbourhood is quiet, and that is what guests remember: a guest in August 2026 finds it perfect for unwinding after a full day, and points out that everything is within reach.

Coming with or without a car

A free outdoor parking space awaits you on site: you arrive, you park, and the car can stay there for the whole stay, since the baths are within walking distance. Just allow for the thirty or so steps down with the luggage.

Without a car, PostBus services climb to Ovronnaz from Riddes and Leytron stations, and the nearest bus stop is 150 m from the apartment. Guests in July 2026 do note, however, that local buses have fairly limited timetables: if you plan to visit other parts of Switzerland during your stay, a car remains more practical.

Who it suits

A couple coming for the baths and hiking, first of all: the apartment, the outdoor area and the calm of the neighbourhood are made for that kind of stay. Then a family with two children, sharing the bedroom between the double bed and the bunk beds; the apartment is suitable for children and babies. And also two or three adults, or a solo traveller who wants to recharge.

It is less suited to four adults who value their privacy, since everyone sleeps in the same room, and to people with reduced mobility: access is via some thirty steps, with no lift. The minimum stay is four nights, all year round.

Arrival and departure, in practice

Self check-in from 5 pm, with a key box; the wifi code and useful addresses are in the arrival guide. For an earlier arrival or a later departure, write to us from your booking and we will confirm depending on the cleaning schedule. We reply every day from 9 am to 9 pm, usually within the hour.

Check-out is at 9 am at the latest. We ask you for four things: take the rubbish to the bins (the spot is shown in the guide), wash the dishes you used, strip the duvet covers and pillowcases, and leave the key where the guide says. Final cleaning is included and done by our team.

Good to know before booking

Non-smoking apartment, no pets and no parties; quiet requested between 10 pm and 7 am, shoes off indoors, and no more than four guests. Access via some thirty steps down, with no lift; no dishwasher and no microwave. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and a first aid kit are in place.

The tourist tax is included in the price shown; admission to the baths is not. It is the same apartment as on the booking platforms, prepared by the same team: by booking here, you deal directly with us before, during and after your stay.
