There is a specific kind of relief that comes with an all inclusive ski holiday: no fumbling for a card at the top of a mountain restaurant, no quiet tally of drinks before dinner, just skiing, eating, and doing it all again tomorrow. Genuinely all-inclusive ski hotels are rarer than you would think, so I went through Inghams, Crystal Ski and Club Med and pulled out every four-star-and-above property they currently sell this way. Here is what is on offer, resort by resort, with real prices and honest notes on who each one actually suits.
In This Guide
Inghams: Four and Five Star All-Inclusive in the Alps
Inghams has quietly built one of the strongest all-inclusive ski portfolios out there. All eight properties below are four-star or above, and every one includes food and drink in the price.
Alpinresort ValSaa, Saalbach (Adults Only)
Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Austria
4.5 Star · All Inclusive · Adults Only 14+ · TripAdvisor 4.9, #1 of 77
Saalbach-Hinterglemm suits beginners and intermediates best, with wide, connected cruising terrain across four linked villages and enough red runs to keep a keen skier interested for a week. It is not the place for serious off-piste, but for a couple who want to ski well without pushing their limits, then disappear into a proper spa afterwards, it comes close to perfect. Snowboarders are looked after too, with a family-friendly park at Reiterkogel.
Guests repeatedly call this the best hotel in the valley. The spa and the adults-only atmosphere come up again and again, alongside generous all-inclusive dining and staff who go out of their way, right down to arranging birthday surprises.
From £2,017pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included). Also sold by Crystal Ski as Alpinresort ValSaa Adults Only, from £1,854pp.
Hotel Sonne, Saalbach
Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Austria
4.5 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.7, 583 reviews
The same easy, sociable Saalbach-Hinterglemm terrain applies here: ideal for beginners finding their feet and intermediates who want mile after mile of groomed cruising. Hotel Sonne sits between the two villages, with a shuttle running to the lifts every ten minutes, so you are never far from the action even without ski-in ski-out.
Reviewers name the shuttle service specifically, along with the quality of the all-inclusive food and the warmth of the family-run staff. Several mention returning year after year, which tells you more than a star rating ever could.
From £1,655pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included). Also sold by Crystal Ski as Die Sonne, from £1,602pp.
Adler Resort, Hinterglemm
Hinterglemm, Austria
4 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.7, 569 reviews
An aparthotel just 100 metres from the cable car, good for families who want more space than a standard hotel room gives you. It sits in the same beginner and intermediate-friendly terrain as the rest of the Skicircus, with a kids' club and cinema keeping younger children entertained on rest days.
Families praise the location, the variety at the breakfast and dinner buffets, and staff who are attentive to children, from the playground to sorting cribs and high chairs without being asked twice.
From £1,718pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
Gardenhotel Theresia, Hinterglemm
Hinterglemm, Austria
4.5 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, 945 reviews, #4 of 77
Family-run since 1948, and it shows. This is a quieter, more considered stay in the same beginner and intermediate-friendly ski area, with genuine ski-in ski-out access, an organic wellness focus, and a kids' club from age three for families who want a slower pace without giving up the spa.
Guests describe a warm, personal atmosphere rather than a corporate one, with particular praise for the five-course evening menus and the Mountain Green spa, built around the hotel's own alpine spring water.
From £1,787pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
Hotel Val Claret All Inclusive, Tignes
Tignes, France
4 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, 1,981 reviews, #9 of 36
Tignes sits inside the Espace Killy, one of the best all-round ski areas in the Alps: strong for beginners in dedicated zones, outstanding for intermediates who want long cruising runs, and genuinely excellent for advanced skiers chasing off-piste and glacier terrain. This hotel is ski-in ski-out at the foot of the slopes, with wine included at meals.
Reviewers consistently rate the true ski-in ski-out position and the kids' clubs, with staff and the buffet restaurant also coming up again and again as reasons families rebook.
From £1,476pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included). Also sold by Crystal Ski as Belambra Clubs, Tignes Val Claret, from £1,516pp.
Hotel Panorama, Flaine
Flaine, France
4 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.2, 255 reviews
Flaine is one of the most practical resorts in France for a family with young beginners, with three nursery areas right at the edge of the car-free village centre. There is good intermediate terrain across the wider Grand Massif too, though advanced skiers will find the black-run offering modest rather than thrilling.
Guests rave about the true ski-in ski-out access straight from heated lockers, and compare the all-inclusive buffet favourably to Club Med. Age-grouped kids' clubs and spacious family rooms come up often.
From £1,236pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included). Also sold by Crystal Ski as Belambra Clubs Panorama, from £1,301pp.
Hotel Les Crêtes, Les 2 Alpes
Les 2 Alpes, France
4 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 3.9, 879 reviews
Les 2 Alpes is a genuine mixed-ability resort, with reliable beginner infrastructure, decent intermediate cruising, and a serious reputation among advanced and off-piste skiers thanks to glacier access. It is also one of the best resorts in France for snowboarders, home to one of Europe's largest terrain parks.
Guests praise the ski-in ski-out position, the teen and kids' clubs, and the heated outdoor pool with slope views. One reviewer called a dip there simply exceptional, which is not a word people use lightly about a hotel pool.
From £1,046pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included). Also sold by Crystal Ski as Belambra Clubs Les Crêtes, from £1,229pp.
Parc Hotel and Spa, Serre Chevalier
Serre Chevalier (Briçannon), France
4 Star · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 3.8, 1,312 reviews
Serre Chevalier is one I point beginners and intermediates towards with real confidence. It is a big, spread-out valley with long cruising runs and dedicated nursery slopes, but there is enough black-run and off-piste terrain tucked away for anyone in the group who wants more of a challenge. The Prorel cable car is under 400 metres from the hotel, which matters more than people expect after a long day.
Reviewers consistently flag the location, close to Briçannon's old town and the lift system, along with generous all-inclusive dining and helpful staff. Rooms and the spa are on the smaller side, worth knowing if that matters to you.
From £953pp with Inghams (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
Crystal Ski: The Rest of the Shortlist
Five of Crystal Ski's ten all-inclusive properties are the same hotels Inghams sells under different names, so I have folded those prices into the Inghams entries above rather than repeat them. Here are the five that are genuinely different.
St Ivan Rilski Spa Resort, Bansko
Bansko, Bulgaria
4 Star · All Inclusive · 281 reviews
Bansko is the value pick of this whole list, and it does not feel like one once you are there. It suits beginners and intermediates especially well, with wide, gentle pistes and cheap, plentiful ski school availability, plus a modest but real black-run offering for anyone wanting more. This hotel is a ten-minute walk from the gondola, with its own shuttle and a genuinely good spa. One thing worth confirming at the time of booking: the hotel's general description elsewhere lists it as bed and breakfast, though the all-inclusive board (breakfast, lunch, evening meal, drinks and snacks) is what is confirmed and priced for this specific booking.
Guests consistently praise the two-level spa, with its heated outdoor pool and mountain-view sauna, along with helpful staff and a varied breakfast spread. Several reviewers mention rooms renovated in 2021 as bright and modern.
From £921pp with Crystal Ski (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
Hotel DreiSonnen, Serfaus
Serfaus, Austria
4 Star Superior · All Inclusive · 145 reviews
Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis is an intermediate's resort at heart, with wide, well-groomed reds that reward confident cruising, a genuine beginner zone, and enough black pistes off the summits for anyone who wants to push on. Snowboarders do well here too, thanks to mostly gondola and chair lift access rather than drag lifts. Hotel DreiSonnen has been run by the same family for over thirty years, a minute's walk from the village funicular.
Guests single out the wellness area, with its five saunas and pleasant pool temperature, alongside genuinely good food and warm, English-speaking staff. One headline review is simply titled Faultless.
From £1,564pp with Crystal Ski (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
Hotel Bergland, Seefeld
Seefeld in Tirol, Austria
4 Star · All Inclusive · 396 reviews
Worth being honest about Seefeld: it is a beginner and intermediate resort with a relatively small alpine ski area, better known for having some of the best cross-country skiing in Europe than for challenging pistes. If that is the kind of week you want, and you would rather have a strong all-inclusive package than the biggest ski area, this is one of the strongest matches on this whole list. It markets itself as the only four-star all-inclusive top-quality hotel in Seefeld, and the wine-inclusive package backs that up.
Reviewers repeatedly call the food fantastic, with one describing the restaurant as worthy of a Michelin star. Staff are praised from reception through to departure day, and the hotel has a notably high rate of repeat guests.
From £1,335pp with Crystal Ski (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
SOWELL Hôtels Mont Blanc & SPA, Saint-Gervais-les-Bains
Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, France
4 Star · All Inclusive · 1,391 reviews
The Évasion Mont-Blanc area, linking Saint-Gervais with Megève and Combloux, is a genuinely good beginner and intermediate domain, with a progressive learning area and long, gentle runs down into the villages. Advanced skiers get a real but limited challenge around Mont Joly. It is not ski-in ski-out, a short walk or shuttle to the Mont d'Arbois gondola, but the mountain views from the hotel are hard to beat.
Guests consistently praise attentive staff, a varied buffet, the heated pool and spa, and the quiet, well-located setting. Repeat visits are a recurring theme in the reviews.
From £975pp with Crystal Ski (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
SOWELL Family Vars, Vars Les Claux
Vars, France
4 Star · All Inclusive · New for 2025/26 season, 50 reviews
Vars links with Risoul to form the Forêt Blanche, one of the most genuinely beginner-friendly domains in France: you can ski the entire link on blue runs alone, and there is enough red and black terrain to keep intermediates and confident skiers content, though it is not a resort for committed experts. This hotel only opened for the 2025/26 season, and it is properly ski-in ski-out, sitting directly on a blue run.
Early guests praise the true ski-out position, the breakfast, and the spacious rooms with alpine views. As a first-season property there have also been a few teething issues reported, from hot water to an unfinished spa area, so I would treat this one as a promising new build rather than a fully proven property just yet.
From £1,060pp with Crystal Ski (7 nights, all-inclusive, flights included).
Club Med: All-Inclusive by Design
Club Med builds all-inclusive into everything it does, so the whole portfolio qualifies. Every price below is quoted per date and party rather than a fixed figure, which is simply how Club Med sells, but I can turn any of these into a real quote within a day.
Club Med Val d'Isère
Val d'Isère, France
Exclusive Collection · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, around 2,700 reviews, #3 of 42
Val d'Isère shares the Espace Killy with Tignes: 300km of piste running from gentle nursery slopes to glacier terrain and some of the best off-piste in the Alps, genuinely suited to every level. This is Club Med's premium tier here, with ski-in ski-out access, a spa by Cinq Mondes, and interiors finished in warm wood tones rather than standard hotel decor.
Guests consistently praise the ski-in ski-out position, calling it unbeatable for convenience, alongside food that draws repeated comparisons to fine dining rather than resort buffet standards.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Tignes
Tignes (Val Claret), France
4 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.7, 2,089 reviews
The same Espace Killy terrain as Val d'Isère applies here, with Tignes itself particularly strong for advanced and freestyle skiers thanks to its off-piste reputation and its own 10km black run down to Tignes-les-Brévières. Club Med Tignes sits in Val Claret with genuine ski-in ski-out access and a spa by Sothys.
One of the highest-rated Club Med properties on this list. Guests repeatedly praise the GO team's warmth, the kids' club supervision, and rooms good enough that families call it their annual happy place.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Les Arcs Panorama
Les Arcs (Arc 1600), France
5 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, around 3,400 reviews, #2 of 15
Les Arcs links to La Plagne via the Vanoise Express, the world's largest double-decker cable car, to form the 425km Paradiski, an easy match for beginners through to confident intermediates, with genuine expert terrain around the Aiguille Rouge for anyone who wants it. Club Med's top Trident rating here reflects Exclusive Collection suites set in a forest clearing at 1,750m.
Guests praise the ski-in ski-out convenience, the buffet dining, and a family-friendly atmosphere that reviewers say works equally well for couples. A high rate of repeat visitors is a recurring theme.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Grand Massif Samoëns Morillon
Samoëns, France
4 Trident (Premium) · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.5, 3,705 reviews, #1 of 7
The Grand Massif is a strong beginner and intermediate domain, with a standout 7km green run from Morillon and long, confidence-building blue and red cruising across 265km of piste. Advanced terrain exists but is the smaller part of the story here. Club Med's resort sits ski-in ski-out on the Plateau des Saix, with a spa by Sothys. A separate chalet-apartments product is also available on the same site, with private kitchens, a chalet host, and its own TripAdvisor listing (4 out of 5, 163 reviews).
Guests consistently praise the ski-in ski-out setting, spacious rooms with mountain views, and dining that is repeatedly called a highlight of the stay rather than an afterthought.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Alpe d'Huez
Alpe d'Huez, France
4 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.5, 3,003 reviews
Alpe d'Huez calls itself l'Île Blanche, and it is a genuine all-rounder: a large nursery area right above the village, long intermediate cruising, and real advanced and expert terrain higher up. Its signature run, La Sarenne, drops 2,210 vertical metres from the Pic Blanc glacier back to the village over 16km, and while it is graded black, most confident intermediates manage it happily.
Guests praise the ski-in ski-out convenience and staff who are described as always available, alongside strong Baby Club and Kids Club provision that parents rate highly.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med La Rosière
La Rosière, France
Exclusive Collection · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.5, 2,408 reviews
La Rosière links directly, by piste, into La Thuile in Italy, the only northern-Alps French resort connected this way. Gentle, wide slopes on the French side suit beginners well, while La Thuile's Italian terrain is considered an intermediate's paradise, with black pistes and off-piste for anyone wanting more. This is a new-build 2020 property with ski-in ski-out access and a spa by myBlend.
Guests consistently praise the doorstep skiing, the quality of the all-inclusive dining, and the kids' clubs, with several reviewers naming individual ski instructors and Mini Club staff for how well their children were looked after.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Val Thorens Sensations
Val Thorens, France
4 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, around 3,700 reviews, #6 of 24
Val Thorens is the highest resort in Europe at 2,300m, sitting inside the Three Valleys, the world's largest linked ski area. That altitude means reliable snow and endless cruising for intermediates, with glacier terrain and off-piste for advanced skiers, and dedicated beginner zones including a free-lift learning area. Worth knowing: this particular hotel has no swimming pool, though it does have a 10-metre indoor climbing wall and a proper spa.
Guests repeatedly call the ski-in ski-out position one of the most convenient in the whole Three Valleys, and the all-inclusive food comes up again and again as some of the best they have had at any Club Med.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Valmorel
Valmorel, France
4 Trident, with a 5 Trident Exclusive Collection floor · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, 6,362 reviews, #1 of 12
Valmorel's Grand Domaine is a genuinely family-friendly, beginner and intermediate area, with enough red and black terrain to satisfy confident intermediates without ever feeling like an expert's resort. Traditional Savoyard architecture and ski-in ski-out access make this one of Club Med's most classically alpine properties, with an Exclusive Collection floor for anyone wanting extra space. A separate chalet-apartments product on the same site (its own TripAdvisor listing, 4 out of 5, 440 reviews) adds a butler-style host and private dining.
The highest review count on this whole list. Guests repeatedly praise the warmth of the staff, both guest-facing and behind the scenes, and describe the all-inclusive food as superb and always available.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Peisey-Vallandry
Peisey-Vallandry, France
4 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.6, around 5,300 reviews, #1 of 2
Another Paradiski property, and one with a genuinely excellent beginner run in the 7km de la Forêt green, one of the longest beginner pistes in Europe. Intermediates get long, confidence-building cruising, and advanced skiers have the legendary Aiguille Rouge black run, a 2,026m vertical drop that ranks among the biggest in Europe. Ski-in ski-out from a Savoyard lodge-style building at 1,600m.
The highest-rated Club Med on this list by TripAdvisor score. Families in particular flag the kids' clubs as the thing they worried about most beforehand and their happiest surprise once there.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Serre Chevalier
La Salle-les-Alpes (Chantemerle), France
4 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, over 6,000 reviews, #1 of 14
This property sits in Chantemerle, generally the gentler, more family-friendly end of the Serre Chevalier valley, which suits Club Med's family-heavy positioning well. The valley overall is beginner-to-intermediate cruising country with a solid minority of black and off-piste terrain for anyone who wants it, and extensive tree-lined skiing lower down. Recently renovated with a full €45m refit across all 349 rooms.
Guests repeatedly single out the kids' club staff by name for their energy and reliability, freeing parents up to actually ski. The food draws consistent praise too, especially the bread and cheese selection.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Pragelato Sestriere
Pragelato, Italy
4 Trident · All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.4, 4,592 reviews, #1 of 7
The only Italian property on this list, and it plugs into the Via Lattea, the Milky Way, a genuine cross-border ski area running into France with over 400km of piste. Gentle village-level slopes suit beginners, broad cruising works for intermediates, and the Olympic-standard Kandahar piste from the 2006 Turin Games gives advanced skiers something to aim for. Styled as a hamlet of chalets on cobbled streets at 1,600m.
Genuine review titles include Amazing ski instructor and fabulous food and Top service. Guests consistently praise the variety of food, with the option to ski to different mountain restaurants included in the price, and friendly, attentive instructors.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Club Med Saint-Moritz Roi Soleil
St Moritz, Switzerland
All Inclusive · TripAdvisor 4.0, 2,851 reviews, #12 of 32
St Moritz has a glamorous reputation, but the skiing backs it up: over 350km of piste across the Corviglia, Corvatsch and Diavolezza areas, with genuine terrain for beginners through to advanced skiers chasing high-altitude bowls and off-piste. Worth flagging honestly: this is not ski-in ski-out, it is a walk or shuttle bus to the lifts each day, and the building itself is older and due a refurbishment.
Guests consistently praise the staff and ski instructors, describing them as warm and always smiling, along with the sense of having uncrowded slopes almost to yourself, which is not something you expect to hear about St Moritz.
Priced per date and party. I will build you a live quote.
Beyond the Brochure
This list covers what Inghams, Crystal Ski and Club Med currently sell as genuinely all-inclusive, four-star-and-above ski holidays. It is not the whole of what is out there. I also have access to a range of ski hotels and chalets through a couple of specialist brokers who work on a bespoke basis, well beyond what is on the big operator sites.
If none of the above is quite right, whether you want a smaller boutique hotel, a private chalet with catering, or a resort I have not covered here, tell me what you are picturing and I will find it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does all inclusive actually mean on a ski holiday?
All inclusive on a ski holiday usually means breakfast, lunch, dinner and a selection of drinks are covered in the price, on top of your flights, transfers and accommodation. It rarely includes your lift pass, equipment hire or ski lessons as standard, though most operators let you add these on. I always check exactly what is and is not covered before you book, since it varies more between hotels than people expect.
Which is the best all inclusive ski resort for beginners?
For beginners, I would point you towards Saalbach-Hinterglemm in Austria, home to four of the hotels on this list, Flaine in France, or Bansko in Bulgaria. All three have genuinely gentle, well-organised nursery slopes rather than a beginner area that feels like an afterthought.
Which all inclusive ski hotel is best for advanced or off-piste skiers?
Tignes and Val d'Isère, sold through both Inghams and Club Med, are the strongest choices here, thanks to the Espace Killy's glacier terrain and off-piste reputation. Les 2 Alpes and Val Thorens are also worth a look if snowboarding and freestyle terrain matter to you.
Do all inclusive ski holidays include your lift pass?
Not usually. Lift passes, ski hire and lessons are almost always priced separately from the all-inclusive board basis, though several of the operators on this list bundle discounted or free lift pass offers alongside their holidays. I will check what is genuinely worth adding for your specific trip.
Is Club Med more expensive than Inghams or Crystal Ski?
Not necessarily. Club Med prices are quoted per date and party rather than shown as a fixed figure, so I cannot compare directly here, but in my experience Club Med sits at a similar level to Inghams and Crystal Ski's higher-end properties once you compare like-for-like board basis and room type. The way to know for certain is to let me build you a real quote.
Which of these hotels are genuinely ski-in ski-out?
Genuinely ski-in ski-out properties on this list include Hotel Val Claret, Hotel Panorama, Hotel Les Crêtes, Gardenhotel Theresia, SOWELL Family Vars, and most of the Club Med resorts. A few, including Hotel Bergland, SOWELL Mont Blanc and SPA, and Club Med Saint-Moritz, are a short walk or shuttle from the lifts rather than true doorstep skiing, which I have flagged honestly against each one.
What if none of these properties are quite right for me?
Then get in touch. This list covers what Inghams, Crystal Ski and Club Med currently sell as genuinely all-inclusive and four-star or above, but I also have access to a range of ski properties through a couple of specialist brokers who work on a bespoke basis, well beyond what is on the big operator sites. Tell me what you are picturing and I will find it.
When should I book an all inclusive ski holiday for the best price?
For the best availability and price, I would generally book six to nine months ahead, particularly for February half-term and Christmas and New Year weeks, which sell out fastest. Early-season dates in December and January tend to offer the best value across most of these all inclusive ski holidays.
