The problem if you go to the Dolomites is that all the other Itlaian resorts feel rubbish afterwards! Apart from the great lift system and extensive snowmaking if needed, the mountian huts are much better in terms of food, atmosphere and most are table service which is defiinitely a plus (and not necessarily more expensive to eat either).
When we had friends in lessons with us a few years ago we did Dri Zinnen/ San Candido. Its off the main Dolomiti Superski (so cheaper) but you do need to get a morning bus to main ski area. Area wasn't huge but we had to return to meet people from ski school anyway at lunch so couldn't be that far away. Also got the train along to ski Kronplatz one day (also on same pass). Although we didn't do it there is also a bus to Cortina for the day too I think. It at leaast had all the good mountain huts and decent lift system of the dolomiti superski (unlike I discovered at Sauze/ Sestriere last year!).

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@MCL, My first Italian ski holiday was at Sauze and I thought its was brilliant! (following a couple of years on the Cairngorm...)
Then I went to San Cassiano........ : the rest is history.......
I did go back to Sauze several years later and there was NO snow (just artificial on the Clotes slope) ; never again (but I would go to Sestriere if I was on a budget)

Ok after much deliberation… and considering all options… we have booked last available apartments for the week in.. Cervinia..will have to leave my dolomites dream to another time when hopefully l won’t be constrained by school holiday prices ( working on grandparents to agree to having the kids for a week one day)
Cervinia should meet our needs so looking forward to it!
