Els Llacs Mountain Apartments are a strong choice for guests who want more space and flexibility than a standard hotel room, while still keeping a proper mountain-holiday feel. Set in Bordes d’Envalira, just over 2 km from Soldeu and around 700 metres from the Peretol access point to Grandvalira, they work especially well for families and groups who are happy with a quieter setting away from the centre of the village. The apartments have a cosy alpine style throughout, with wood, stone and mountain views giving them a warm, chalet-style feel. 

A big part of the appeal here is the range of apartment sizes. There are layouts for anything from 2 up to 10 people, including studios, one-bedroom apartments, family-friendly mezzanine options and larger multi-bedroom apartments for bigger groups. The apartments are well equipped for a self-catering stay, with a full kitchen including hob, oven, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and coffee machine, plus comfortable lounge space and, in many cases, a balcony or terrace. 

The free wellness facilities are another real plus. Guests have access to a spa and fitness area with indoor and outdoor jacuzzis, sauna, hammam and gym, which gives the property a bit more of a full holiday feel than a simple apartment stay. There is also a children’s play area, reading and TV room, and ski lockers in winter, all of which make it a very practical base for a week in the mountains. 

Why guests like it:

Guests tend to like Els Llacs because it gives them room to spread out without losing the comforts that make a ski holiday easier. The apartment layouts work well for families and groups, the kitchens add useful flexibility, and the free spa and gym are a genuine bonus after a day on the mountain. It is a particularly good fit for guests who want a quieter base near Soldeu with more space than a hotel room can usually offer. 

Good to know:

These apartments are best suited to guests who are happy to stay just outside Soldeu rather than right in the village centre. Apartment choice is worth checking carefully, as layouts vary a lot across the property, from simple studios to large multi-bedroom options, and some include extras such as hydromassage baths, mezzanine sleeping space, balconies or terraces. Private garage parking is available (Payable Locally).
