Not used them - but the first appears to be a Brit liaising with a French agent (but the details are accurate - one is next door to my pad!) and the second is a standard local agency that specalises in Val Claret

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

Can't give you the address but in the About Us there was enough to give the game away. Will be in resort shortly I'll have a look in some windows to see if I can match them up!

Bit of time to kill at the port - and the answer is Gestignes (an agency in Le Lac).
Ask if you need any thooughts on a particular building in Le Lac - I have been in most....

Fabulous - well done! As a result of your super-sleuthing, I have seen what I wanted to see which was a kitchen photo of Premou A No 6. The English website had cunningly left that photo out. Think that was a near miss! Next on the list is black leather sofa place in Divaria, next to of Chardonnet button. Ha, the boarders will love that first thing in the morning on stiff legs! Or any other suggestions? - we need 3 decent bedrooms, a good kitchen, a view would be nice, and walking distance in snowboard boots from central Le Lac or other good nursery slopes, for my brother and his lad who's starting off on a board this year. I know - it's a bit cheeky to ask, but you just might have a bit more time to kill. If not, have a great time, whatever you are up to in resort.

Have a look at look at Le Rosset 405, if its within your budget it ticks all your boxes - its 75m to Ski Front in Le Lac and you could abseil down to the Alpaka. The bloke next doors quite amenable! Been off line for the last days biying paint and starting to use it.
The Chardonnet drag is close to A level.......

Lavachet can be quiet depending on the block. For example The Home Club in Lav is home to many seasonaires and therefore a 24 hour party for 5 months! Others are much quieter such as 2100. There a a couple of noisy bars in Lav (unlike the dozens in VC) - you just have to be a bit careful. However access to the pistes is dead easy so no snags there.
Les Almes has no bars as such but is more expensive.
Le Lac is mostly quiet. Bec Rouge is very large but can be very quiet - the blocks in the Palaofur building (about 10 different buidings in fact) can be more noisy.
If you narrow it down a bit more I can be a bit moe specific.
(Great choice of resort BTW  )
