Has anyone found floor plans of apartments in Belle Plagne. Previously stayed at Licorne Apts and this season trying Constellation Apts

Think that's where I stayed on my first ski holiday many years ago. We had a group of 5 squeezed into 2 neighbouring shoebox sized appartments. There were bunk beds by the front door, then bathroom and tiny kitchen off the narrow corridor leading down through the appartment. Finally a small dining table and sofas which folded out into beds, before the balcony. Whole thing was open plan, so not much division between areas, perhaps a curtain or flimsy door between bunks and the rest.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@GrumpyM, I haven't stayed in the constellation apts but we're staying in Licorne apts for our first trip to Belle Plagne next year so any tips would be gratefully received, especially ski-in ski out and getting to the ski school.

GrumpyM, have you tried asking Crystal? Or Pierre & Vacances? Or Chalet on Line? or whoever you intend to book with?
My review of the various pictures suggest this is a typical French apartment: OK for 2, hell if fully occupied.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

My advice is to try and get the m² figure if you can - it's usually a good indicator of density. For example, our 68 m² Swiss apartment is 2 Bedrooms, sleeping 4 comfortably. But it's rated 4-6 because there's a sofa-bed in the lounge and you can put a children's mattress on the floor of the bunk bed room (in France, they'd have cut down on the living area and put a 3rd., miniscule bunk bedroom in). You may find that other apartments in the same block are rented through an agency, and they may quote the m² figure, if you can find the right website. Start to get suspicious if its, like, 45m² and accommodates 6-8 ...

Thanks guys, basically expecting bunk beds and sofa beds. The constellation booking gives no notice of the apartment you will be staying in and I know there are a few in Belle Plagne. I think they are all ski in/out and Belle Plagne is not a big place. Cheers!

@GrumpyM, if you intend to fully occupy the place, it will be very cramped. We stayed on one years ago with our kids, but if we'd had three beds occupied in the lounge area, there would have been no room for anyone to get out of bed. I think we stayed in Cassiopi, and had a one bedroom apartment. Studios had bunks in corridor opposite bathroom and two sofabeds and pull out in the lounge. The one bedroom ones seems to be 27m2 which would seem about right.
