Hey folks. It seems you have a great problem with the meaning of ski resort... It's very, very funny to hear your comments about Isola 2000. What's your level of knowing about a ski resort? Very poor I think.
Isola 2000 is a small ski resort. How can you compare it with Tignes or something? On this site (very, very good site), there is a great specification about the number of slopes and an accurate map of the resort, so, there is no problems. Problems come when you don't know nothing about what is a ski resort. Simply, Isola 2000 is the closest ski resort to the sea, and the city of Nice, Limone Piemonte and Valberg too, but these are all small resorts, not comparable with the others great ski resort of the Alps. Normally, the snow on Isola 2000 is at "rendez-vous" because of the altitude of the resort, the snowfall is huge on primetemps and early season because of the particular position of the resort (close to sea) but not all seasons are the same. Look with attention at the snow falling history and at the temperature. I repeat, Isola 2000 is very close to the sea and it's normal that this has an influence on the temperature and the snow falling. And, I suggest to also not book on the French school Holiday. Why? Because the entire region goes to Isola 2000 for ski and it became an hell on the route.
This site is very accurate, you have only to make attention on what you search and not simply on what you hope...
And I'm Italian. When I go to England or France or simply outside my country, I have not the pretension or the claim of all the world speak Italian or English or French or a language that I know. It's not very cool to tell in a comment what you say about French hospitality because is totally wrong, and I repeat, I'm Italian, not French.
Finally, I apologize with all of you for my English, but I make my best. Try to make the same on your next foreign holiday and smile. Good Bye.
