Family Ski Holiday - Travel Agent Diaries

July 26, 2024
Skiing in Passo Tonale, Italy
After taking our kids skiing in Bulgaria for the first time a couple of years ago we decided it was time to get back to the slopes earlier this year and Italy was the destination of choice. We stayed in Hotel Vittoria Sport in Passo Tonale and had an incredible time with the family.

Arriving at the hotel we were really pleased with the room we had booked, as a family of four we opted for the family suite which had two rooms. Not only did this mean our kids had their own bedroom but it also allowed for extra space for all of our skiing gear, if you've not skied before then just keep in mind this can take up room, not only in your suitcase but also in your bedroom. The hotel had hooks in the room to hang our salopettes and ski jackets which was great to help them dry out for the next day!

The food in the hotel for both breakfast and dinner was fantastic. Breakfast was a buffet whereas the evening meal was a la carte with a good choice of food and while there wasn't a kids menu the hotel were more than accommodating when it came to there picky food needs. 

The hotels ski lockers were also very good. They were located over the road from the hotel right at the base of the slopes meaning we never had to carry them back and forth. 

The ski area was brilliant, lots of slopes for beginners and intermediates alike! We didn't get a chance to explore the black runs on this occasion as we had a lot of snow and viability wasn't the best (out of our control) so we didn't want to take the challenge.  

Our kids spent the mornings in ski school and by the end of the week were really strong and confident when it came to using the lifts and racing down the slopes. They had a great time and have also caught the skiing bug! 

We enjoyed it that much that we are going to be returning next year as the area had something for everyone to enjoy.
