Went to Scheffau from 7 Jan to 14 Jan 2007 and stayed at Hotel Alpin with Esprit.
Best winter holiday we've had. It was a thin time for snow across the Alps this year but they are brilliant at maintaining snow at Scheffau and we had a great time.
There's variety to ski on for intermediates and plenty of places to stop and eat/drink. The piste-map is incomprehensible so pay E2.50 for a 3d version at the lift station instead. The ski down to the bottom at the end of the day is beautiful and worthwhile if you're not too tired. Also the little run from opposite the Alpin down to the road near the lift station is a nice little warm up rather than taking the ski-bus in the morning.
If you've got kids this is the perfect resort. Esprit are second to none and we had a totally worry-free holiday. 6-yr old was in improvers and went on all manner of slopes, 3-yr old tried skiing in Spritelets and also played in snow etc in Snow Club. Basically we couldn't fault the child-care as they had plenty of staff so any idiosincracies with particular children etc just isn't a problem.
The Alpin accommodation is clean and spacious (Esprit get the superior rooms in the block above the Pizzeria/reception) and the food is fantastic. Lots of choice of what to eat and the wine etc is included. Only negative to the hotel is that outside the restaurant is a bar area where some of the guests who came with another operator (who does more than just families) would smoke, but then we only pass through that area I guess. The pool is great (if a bit cold) and the staff helpful.
Ski-hire is under the hotel and the first day isn't stressful as the Esprit staff just wait in the shop until you've got all your hire sorted out and then escort the kids up when ready, so no pressure to have them ready too promptly on the first day!
Ski-school is good for kids and adults. Don't bother with the metal ceremony though - it's chaos. Just book a free sleigh ride instead for that night. Ski lifts were good, not too much waiting around, and the gondola from Scheffau is fast.
Its nice to vary where you go on holiday, but this is a resort where one really could come back to time after time.
