Details

The Planibel is a world of its own, with everything from shops and entertainment to a huge indoor pool, plus Childcare. As for the skiing, it’s right at your feet – you can ski to and from the door, and the main gondola is just metres away.

It’s got modern looks, with lots of light wood and splashes of pale green and blue. Big windows let in the light, not to mention snowy views to get you excited for your day in the mountains. Then when you get back from the slopes, the hotel is your oyster. Start things off with a swim and sauna, then pop into the hotel bar for an après drink. And if you’re after a souvenir or some sports gear, there's a line-up of shops you can visit without leaving the complex.

Hungry? You’ll be well taken care of here. On top of your buffet breakfasts and evening meals, there’s a range of restaurants and cafés to explore, as well as a mini-market where you can grab drinks and snacks.

Ski-in, ski-out spot next to the main gondola and chairlift.
Loads to explore, from bars and shops to the pool and spa.

Childcare available to book – Pepi Penguin Nursery (6 months – 4 years) and Beanie Bear Club (4-8 years)*

*Some clubs may close earlier in the season.

Childcare

Our Pepi Penguin Nursery (6 months-4 years) and Beanie Bear Club (4-8 years) are based in the Planibel Hotel & Residence. You can book places in these childcare clubs if you stay in the Hotel Planibel, Residence Planibel, Hotel Du Glacier or Hotel le Miramonti. All Childcare is at an extra charge and must be pre-booked to guarantee a place.

Pepi Penguin Nursery (6 months - 4 years) is run by our team of Childcare professionals and held in a dedicated room in the hotel equipped with games and toys. Outdoor play included (weather and parental consent permitting).

Pepi Penguin Nursery includes:

• Full-day care from 8.30am – 5pm
• 2-course hot lunch
• Snacks and drinks throughout the day
• A daily routine and activities report for your child

Activities vary daily. We'll find time for stories, singing, arts and crafts including painting and collage making, plus messy play in the sand tray and free play with age-relevant toys set out for the children to choose what they want to do.

We're also really keen to take in some fresh mountain air each day, so we aim to have an outdoor activity at least once a day – maybe snowy walks, a gondola ride or snow painting. And if your child is used to a sleep, we'll factor that in too.

Beanie Bear Club (4-8 years) provides plenty of fun-filled days as our childcare staff offer a combination of care and skiing, which includes 6 x morning ski lessons, pick-up and drop-off from ski lessons, lunch and either full-day or half-day care by staff in the dedicated Beanie Bear Club room.

Full-day Beanie Bear Club includes:
• Full-day care from 8.30am – 5pm
• 5 x morning ski lessons, ski school drop-offs and pick-ups*
• Child skis, boots and helmet hire
• 2-course hot lunch
• Snacks and drinks throughout the day
• Afternoon games and outdoor fun.

Half-day Beanie Bear Club includes:
• Half-day care from 8.30am – 2pm
• 5 x morning ski lessons, ski school drop-offs and pick-ups*
• Child skis, boots and helmet hire
• 2-course hot lunch
• Snacks and drinks throughout the day

* Lift passes aren't included as each child's needs are different. If and when your child feels confident enough to use the lifts, you'll need to buy a lift pass locally.

Activities vary daily – to include games, arts and crafts and storytime – and are often based around a theme.

We're also really keen to take in some fresh mountain air each day, so we aim to have an outdoor activity at least once a day – maybe bus bingo, snowman competitions or a treasure hunt.

Good to know

Both Pepi Penguin Nursery and Beanie Bear Club run for 6 days and must be pre-booked to guarantee a place.

Please note, Childcare is at an extra charge, and in some instances does not extend the full length of the ski season. Give us a call to chat through your options.
