Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. As in most Italian resorts, a tourist tax applies to each guest over 12, for each night, and it is paid directly at the resort rather than in the package. The amount is set locally and can change from one season to the next. Your advisor tells you about it when you book, so you know in advance what will remain to be paid on site.
Yes, and it is one of the resort's strengths. Pragelato hosted the cross-country skiing and ski jumping events of the 2006 Turin Olympic Games, and the valley keeps groomed cross-country trails. Downhill skiers have the Via Lattea ski area, while cross-country fans enjoy terrain rarely found at a Club Med resort. Snowshoe outings round out the offer on quieter days.
Yes. A hospital is located in Sestriere, about ten minutes' drive from the resort. That is reassuring for families and for skiers who want to make the most of the ski area. Travel insurance covering medical costs and repatriation remains essential for a ski trip abroad: your advisor can offer one when you book.
The resort offers duplex Superior Family rooms of about 67 to 69 square metres for four people, as well as 50-square-metre Superior Family rooms. For a family of five or six, connecting rooms join two rooms and can exceed 80 square metres. These configurations go fast over the holidays and spring break, which is why booking early pays off.
Yes. The resort has set up Lo Spazio, a place designed for teenagers. Ages 11 to 13 meet at the Teens Club Med and ages 14 to 17 have the Chill Pass, both included in the package, with supervised activities and freer moments. Teens who ski take group lessons according to their level, which lets them meet young people their own age from all over Europe.
Only from age 2. Pragelato Sestriere requires every guest to be at least 2 years old, and its first club is Petit Club Med, for ages 2 and 3, at extra cost. With a baby under 2, choose a French Alps resort that offers Baby Club Med, such as Alpe d'Huez, La Rosière or Valmorel. Your advisor will help you find the one closest to what you were looking for in Italy.
Allow about an hour and three quarters by road for the roughly 90 kilometres between Turin Caselle airport and the resort. From Milan Malpensa or Geneva, the drive takes about three hours. The transfer is booked with the Club Med package. Your advisor chooses the airport based on the flights available from Montreal and the arrival time, especially if you are travelling with children.
The resort offers snowshoe outings among the fir trees, a Finnish sauna, cosy lounges and an Italian table worth lingering at. Beyond the resort, the Sacra di San Michele abbey, an iconic Piedmont landmark, is about an hour and a half away by road, and Sestriere is ten minutes away. Non-skiers can easily fill a week without getting bored.
Yes. Club Med describes the facilities at Pragelato Sestriere as renovated and enlarged, in a resort that keeps its Piedmont hamlet character, with wooden chalets and a central square. The resort also holds Green Globe environmental certification. For a family comparing it with older Alpine resorts, that is worth weighing alongside the ski area.
As early as possible, ideally by the end of summer. The season only runs from December 20 to March 27, the resort is not huge, and family rooms go first. Club Med launches its early booking offers in late August for the following winter. Your advisor watches these offers and lets you know when they apply to Pragelato, so you do not have to track promotions yourself.
