Because golf and the mountains are a real remedy against sanitary gloom, Les Carroz (74) have put in place to reassure green lovers this summer a “health charter”. It was designed in consultation with all the players in the destination and strongly engages the resort in various areas. On this occasion, it is a question of ensuring a simple and easy visibility of all the sanitary protocols adopted by the station and its professionals. The objective is to promote remote information to future customers for the preparation of their stay, but also to reinvent the offer of entertainment for ever more attractive holidays. Throughout the stay, the customer journey (activities, catering, etc.) has also been redesigned to protect everyone's safety. On this occasion, a health advisor was appointed and specially trained by the tourist authorities to ensure listening and wise advice to professionals and holidaymakers who have questions.

Today, the “health charter” advocated by the Les Carroz resort has four main objectives:

• Disseminate good practices to the various professional players in order to support them in the preparation of the tourist season.
• Effectively distinguish between tourism professionals responsible for hygiene procedures in the fight against the virus.
• Standardize under a common charter the promise to consider and ensure under the best conditions the health security of holidaymakers who have chosen the destination of Les Carroz.

Accommodation and food:

The "Servages of Armelle"

Nestled in the mountains on the heights of the Carroz d'Arâches resort at an altitude of 1200 meters, this beautiful 4-star hotel houses a traditional restaurant which opens onto a beautiful veranda and a panoramic terrace. Currently open every weekend in June from Thursday to Sunday, this former place of servitude dates back to 1788, during the construction of two alpine farms used during the summer pastures. Traditionally, this is the time of year when herds graze on mountain pastures. Two centuries later, the ski slopes having developed, Armelle, a former high-level skier member of the France team, naturally converted to cooking in these predestined places. With the help of her husband, they patiently transformed these two old chalets into a 10-room hotel with tasteful decoration and high-end equipment, combining the charm of old wood and all modern comforts. The prestige suite in the chalet below the restaurant has a magnificent view of the Aravis range. Since 2002, chef Pascal Flécheau has brought his wonderful creativity to the kitchen and actively participates in the success and great reputation of the establishment.
