Pragelato Sestriere Italy

Fantastic holiday with my lovely husband
Hugo is such a great boss & creates a fantastic atmosphere
The staff work very hard & the food is excellent.
The waiting staff are good but could be a little faster in asking of you want a drink . It’s the end of season so i understand they were exhausted!
The bar staff were so lovely
Our room was well looked after by the housekeeper
Gorgeous location
Fabulous skiing
My instructor Gerard absolutely made my holiday. After an awful injury I was unsure if I would ski again. Without doubt he gave me so much tuition & kindness & confidence. The ski schools are very lucky to have him ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My husband was impressed with Lucas too
Lovely fellow skiers
Will definitely return ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had such a great experience here. It was our first club med vacation and I can't believe we didn't try it sooner.

The mountain was really fun for skiing. The instructors were excellent. The food was incredible and was different every day. All 3 of my kids could find something they loved.

We especially loved the staff at the kids club. It gave us peace of mind while skiing to let our youngest (7) stay with the people there when she wasn't learning to ski.

Everyone made friends and the whole family including my 3 kids (14,11,7) are dying to go back.

Comfortable facilities, excellent food, and a friendly, attentive hotel staff.
I took snowboard lessons with Maestro Michele Marta — they were outstanding, with a strong focus on technical learning and significant personal improvement by the end of the course. I highly recommend it.

I spent a week at Club Med Pragelato with my family (wife, 3 and 2 year old children).

Before booking, I’d read a handful of negative reviews from parents with little kids. It left me feeling a bit concerned. However, I decided to go ahead and book (last opportunity to take my son skiing outside of the expensive school holidays!) And boy am I glad I did…the week gave me everything I was hoping for!

My personal opinion: this is an incredible place to visit with two small kids - I highly recommend it to other parents. The biggest reason why? The incredibly friendly, enthusiastic and helpful staff!

First, some background about my family in case it helps other parents. My two kids are the challenging kind! I’d mentally prepared myself that they might refuse to join the kids’ club and leave us. But I’m happy to share that they went to the kids’ club every day, giving my wife and I the opportunity to ski each morning.

First day at the kids’ club was (unsurprisingly) hard. My son explained to us that our daughter spent most of the morning crying after we dropped them off! But the Club Med staff stayed calm and managed the tricky situation before we picked up our kids for lunch.

Next morning - she cried again when we dropped her off. However, she quickly calmed down and started playing with the activities. The staff at Club Med’s kids’ club did something really beneficial for my wife (without asking)…they sent us picture updates by whatsapp showing our daughter happily playing. This immediately reassured my wife and allowed us to enjoy our time off skiing.

I knew our children were most likely doing to be difficult but the Petite Club Med staff handled them without fault. Thank you, Julie, Nicole, Éloise, Simona, and Oceane - you're the most important reason for us giving a five-star review.

Food - our kids are also frustratingly picky eaters. Luckily, the main restaurant has a great variety of food options available. The extensive salad bar allowed us to always get some veggies into our kids. And one morning, I told a staff member (Calogero) that it was my son’s birthday. He then asked if he could arrange a birthday cake for him at dinner! What a lovely touch. Christophe - the pastry chef, always made our kids smile when visiting him for ice cream. When we visited La Tana (the more fine dining restaurant) for fondue, the staff were welcoming of our unruly kids and even got some colouring activities to keep them occupied.

Skiing - I think the setup is great for teaching little kids to ski. Yes you do need to take the gondola first (not true ski out). But our kids loved this (and it meant we didn’t need to put them in ski boots until it was time to ski). The beginner area is a bit small but enough for first time skiers with two magic carpets, which our kids loved also. Victor at the ski shop was also a huge help as he got the kids comfortable with wearing ski boots for the first time.

Check-in - my wife was feeling car sick from the coach journey. But Orion was so kind and helpful as she immediately brought a nurse to help.

You’ll also meet Hugo - the Chef de Village. His enthusiasm might be the biggest reason why all of the staff were so friendly and enthusiastic…it must rub off on the rest of his team! I really appreciated how he always checked in with us.

Summary? An unforgettable first family ski trip. Thanks the Club Med staff at Pragelato!

This resort is so so pretty. The staff are all lovely, and the food and drinks are fantastic. The ski area is amazing!!!
The rooms are tired and need updating. We had a lot of issues with the room. However.. everything else was perfect. The staff were all very nice, super friendly and approachable. After a rocky start we actually had a great stay and would definitely return.
