Swimming pools
To ensure your safety, we inform you that access to our swimming pools is subject to recommendations from the health authorities. Indeed, the limitation of the number of people will be introduced in order to respect social distancing between each holidaymaker. To do this, you will be invited to reserve a time slot per day, per personn. Once your time slot is over, you can book a new one (provided that the maximum number of people in the pool has not been reached). Between each slot the space will be disinfected.

Good to know: The usual dosage of water chemistry, especially with chlorine, guarantees the destruction of the virus. So you can bathe serenely!

Spa
All of our practitioners have been trained in sanitary procedures and will be equipped with visors and / or masks depending on the treatment performed. The health authorities have imposed the closure of certain activities: the jacuzzi, sauna and hammam are closed until further notice.

Even in the mountains, it is necessary to continue to respect barrier gestures. Wearing a mask is mandatory when queuing at the ski lifts and throughout transport on the chairlift or gondola. Regular disinfection of surfaces and hydroalcoholic gel pump available. On the ski slopes, wearing a mask is not compulsory, so you can ski in complete freedom.
