Just to say I had a great time in Arinsal 3rd-10th Feb. It was my first skiing holiday and it was just right for a nervous first-timer! My top tip is if you get there early enough on the Sunday to go and get your hired gear in the afternoon and take it up to the lockers at the top of the gondolas (cable car) ready for Monday morning.
They let us up the gondola to drop our stuff off for free and we booked our ski school lessons at the same time too.
Don't forget your sunscreen and say hello to the dashing instructor Jordi for me!!
