Love this place. If you want a party atmosphere go to Niseko. We just came from there... If you want less lines, more piste and off-piste to yourself, no attitude when going under the orange rope from crew, check this place out. Lift ticket works out to be $50 AUD a day. Once you get it head straight to Mt Isola and ride it until you get bored. Mt Isola is the signature on piste run, but to be honest it's all about the tree runs. Reds are pretty tame for an intermediate boarders/skiers, blacks are very short. If you have lots of money stay at the resort. If not, there are a few (but not ample) places to stay within a 10 minute walk. Make sure you check out the row of little restaurants right next to the hotel, you'll save stacks of money and eat great food. Pirate man was our favourite. If you wanted a holiday without Aussies, choose another location, Australians are everywhere! Enjoy but don't tell your mates.
