Family operator Esprit Ski has introduced a new chalet hotel in Italy for next winter.
The new property is situated in Champoluc, close to the resort’s main gondola, giving easy access to the Monterosa ski area.
Catering includes breakfast, afternoon tea and a three-course evening meal including wine and coffee five days a week.
The Chalet Hotel de Champoluc has an in-house nursery and snow club.
The operator, which is offering a number of free child places in all chalets and Chalet Hotels, has frozen childcare prices at this season’s prices for bookings made now for 2018/19.
It is also offering more baby and toddler (BAT) weeks, which offer savings on the usual price for children from 17 weeks to four years of age, plus a host of extra activities to this age group, such as organised treasure hunts. During these weeks, the operator is offering free infant places, half-price nursery places and half-price Spritelets and Snow Club for toddlers.
Esprit Ski is offering four additional BAT weeks throughout the season at a variety of resorts, giving a total of 10.
The operator will also be operating flights to Austria on Saturdays from regional airports next Saturday, aligning with its Italy chalet programme.
