Independent Ski Holidays to Andorra
Hello... Welcome to our guide to Andorra, which has been produced with the aim of helping you book an independent ski holiday to Andorra in the easiest way possible. Here at Andorra Resorts we’ve been organising flexible, independent holidays since 2008 when we created our series of websites, based on providing detailed and up-to-date resort information, as well as being able to book as much or as little of your holiday as you need. In this guide we’ll introduce you to the main ski resorts of Andorra, so you can identify which resort best suits you, and then we’ll show you how easy it is to tailor-make your perfect trip independently. Towards the back you’ll find out about flights, airport transfers, accommodation and ski extras, which you can book on our website. Our team really are experts in Andorra - our resort team are on the mountain daily reporting on snow conditions, plus posting photos and videos to our social media pages. We’ve skied every slope and explored every inch of this wonderful country, and are passionate about passing on our knowledge to others so you can come and experience the slopes we have fallen in love with.

With over 300km of slopes offering a world class ski experience, in recent years Andorra has become a haven for snow lovers attracting top level ski and snowboard events, whilst still offering fantastic value for money. A huge amount of effort, combined with strong investment in infrastructure has placed Andorra amongst the leading ski destinations of Europe. Not only a great place to ski, you’ll find lots to do off the slopes, including luxury spas, duty free shopping, ice skating, dog sledding, panoramic helicopter flights, and a great gastronomic scene, amongst many other things. There are two distinct ski areas, Grandvalira and Vallnord. The former covers a vast

Accommodation
Accommodation Booking your accommodation via our website means you’ve a huge choice of hotels and apartments to choose from – everything from budget hostels to five-star luxury. We have live availability and fully flexible stays, so you can choose exactly when you want to visit.
Travelling independently means you can decide whether to include meals with your hotel booking, so you have more control over where you spend your money. You might prefer to just book B&B then explore the many restaurants available in each resort. Many hotels also have saunas or steam rooms, which can be extremely welcoming after a hard day on the slopes. Staying in an apartment usually gives you more living space and so if you have children it can make things a little easier to have bedrooms and a separate living area, plus you’ll have cooking facilities which means you can prepare food when needed rather than having to wait for set meal times.
Flexibility Come for a week or just for the weekend – our holidays are fully flexible to meet your needs!
TO BOOK ONLINE VISIT ANDORRARESORTS.COM/ACCOMMODATION
As it’s a ski holiday, some other things to look out for are the distance from the slopes/ lifts, if there’s a bus stop close by, and if the accommodation has ski storage. Independent Ski Holidays to Andorra

Ski School
Ski School Adding lessons to your ski or snowboard holiday can bring you loads of great benefits – not only will you be learning new skills and improving on your technique, it’s also a great way to meet new people and you’ll often find groups from ski school heading for après ski together after a day on the slopes. There are two types of lessons to choose from, private or group lessons, each offering their different advantages. Group lessons are a great way to meet new people and it’s a very social aspect to your snowsports holiday, also offering great value for money. Private lessons are more expensive per hour, however you’re getting the full attention of your instructor for the whole lesson.
Vallnord – Arinsal Arinsal has a dedicated British Ski School offering exceptional levels of care and achieving accreditation from the British Association of Snowsports Instructors (BASI). Lots of their friendly instructors have worked in Arinsal for many years, and over the years have won awards for the quality of tuition.
