The best of both worlds, this is ultimate tranquillity without compromising on the skiing. With floor-to-ceiling windows, the Edgewood Restaurant's unobstructed views of the mountains, pine trees and glistening lake earned it a place in the '100 Most Scenic Restaurants in America'.

Brand new last winter, 4*+ The Josie brought a much-needed element of luxury to RED Mountain Resort's previously rustic base. The Josie is ski-in ski-out with the Silverlode Chair right outside and the Red Chair a short ski away, so you can tackle the resort's 2,877 acres of steep, deep powder with ease before heading back to the hotel to relax at the bespoke spa overlooking the mountains.

Luxury doesn't need to be reserved for couples, we also have some great offers for families looking for a lavish winter holiday that doesn't break the bank. Here are five of the best, all at Easter, the most affordable time to ski as a family.

The 5* Limelight Hotel Snowmass is not even a year old but is proving to be a hit with our customers. USA Product Manager James and I visited last winter and we both agree that, for families, Snowmass and the Limelight are ideal. The hotel has wonderful facilities including large outdoor hot tubs, but also some more unique ones like the indoor climbing wall and ice skating rink. I loved the convenience of ski-in ski-out and easy gondola access but what really stuck with me was the glorious breakfast and the common social areas where parents and kids can meet up in a relaxed environment. The rooms are spacious, well-equipped and have a vibrant finish. The Limelight Snowmass offers a unique opportunity to ski one of the world's most exclusive resorts, staying in a 5* hotel, for an amazing price.

For a little more opulence, you can experience complimentary champagne sabering, with a glass of fizz offered daily. The rooms are stunning, well-equipped and spacious - we recommend upgrading to a Mountain View room as the surroundings are spectacular.

Beaver Creek is perfect for families who have come to expect the highest levels of service. The hot chocolate in the lift queues and fresh cookies at the end of each ski day are sure to keep the children happy while the first-class experience extends to the slopes with some of the runs groomed twice a day. Our top pick for accommodation is the ski-in ski-out 5*+ Park Hyatt Resort & Spa which conveniently sits by the Buckaroo Chair for the children's learning area and the Centennial Express for quick access to the resort's 1,832 acres. The hotel has the unique Camp Hyatt - an onsite crèche service which serves complimentary s'mores at the end of the day for kids (and adults!).
