Falkensteiner Family Resort Lido 4*S, Casteldarne Ehrenburg, Kronplatz, Italy

In Casteldarne Ehrenburg village

5 minutes' walk to the village centre

4 minutes' walk to the ski train station, and a 25-minute ride to the Percha-Ried gondola (travel is free with your liftpass)

This one-of-a-kind, full-board hotel is a top pick for families. The whole place feels like it was designed with a kids’ imagination – we’re talking a ski slope and ice rink on the roof, a huge waterslide that swooshes into the poolside play area, and a room that combines trampolines and video games where you bounce your way to victory. There’s even a free kids’ club that's ideal for getting stuck into activities and making some holiday friends.

You’re all set for relaxation too. Take a dip in the indoor pool, and when you want a peek at those mountain views you can swim right on through to the outdoor one. Then head to the spa and let the heat of the steam room and sauna melt your cares away. As for hitting the slopes, you can warm up your ski legs with a few runs on the roof, then head over to the ski train which will take you to the main pistes.

Your full-board plus stay means mealtimes are sorted from breakfast right through to your evening meal. The food’s all served buffet style here, so you’re free to mix and match, but this isn’t your standard self-serve affair – many of the stations have chefs cooking away right behind the counter. There’s lots of variety too, from authentic South Tyrolean dishes made with fresh pasta and dumplings, to barbecued meats and cheesy pizzas. Soft drinks are included with each meal, and there are also homemade cakes for an afternoon snack.
