We went with Crystal this year and stayed at the Montane - great location, but the food wasn't too good. We booked our skis & boots with Arinsal.co.uk which was 30% cheaper than usual, and picked them up at St Moritz which was really easy and good equipment too - also got our lift passes with Arinsal.co.uk.
I'd also say definately get to the Darby Irish Bar - brilliant atmosphere, and the ski instructors there were fab!!
See you next year  |

Hi. We have just put some info on the homepage of this site about DIY booking for next year. I hope it's useful. Snowrental is a good option - they use Esports Rossell which IMO is the best of the bigger ski shops in Arinsal. There are also a couple of smaller shops - Servei de Neu and 5150 - which are pretty good but no online booking yet.
Hopefully see you here next year

Second vote for snowrental.com. I learned to ski in Arinsal and have been there 4 times, 2 on a DIY. On the second DIY I used snowrental. Got great gear (Rossignol Zeniths) from Esports Rossel.
Have use snow rental again this year in Austria and again, great prices and great quality gear.
If doing a DIY to Arisal, make sure you register for a vallnord card and get 10% of most of the services. If you have a car, try to get over to Arcalis. Its worth the trip.

There are lots of links on this site that should help you. Consider one of the 4 airports mentioned in one of number one's reports. I think that ski hire and lift passes are not cheaper in the resort but lots of sites offer discounts. The Hotel Palarine, where I am staying, are offering guests 30% discount of ski hire. Keep looking and I am sure you will be able to have a holiday cheaper than the travel companies. They have just got too greedy. Good luck. |

We are travelling out to Arinsal on the 9th of April for 6 days over Easter and I can't wait - Haven't been back in a while
We booked our skis thru snowrental (Type esports rossell into google and follow links)- 5 days top notch skis - 61 euros
We also booked our BA flights, hotel Xalet Verdu (half board) and ski passes (full 6 days) with Expedia to Barcelona - Total for about £480 each - I think that is a bargain
Picking up a hire car at Barcelona Airport
Hope this helps |
