Everything was very easy - the passes were sent to us before we travelled, and the skis we hired were just beside the main reception area. It couldn't have been simpler.

Overall it was a completely amazing holiday, we were lucky with the weather and snow! I must say Karen Moodie was brilliant, she always got back to me so quickly with queries, she was just fab from start to finish! Couldn’t have been more pleased with the service she gave.
