Beito Resort Customer Reviews

The resort was very small and quiet but suited our needs perfectly - the slopes (and therefore ski school meet) were a one minute walk across the road. Snow maintained very well on the slopes despite the snowfall having been (apparently) disappointing compared to most years. Perfect for complete beginners, it perhaps lacked enough variety for my husband and I, particularly as the third lift did not open until the last day - this was a real shame as it clearly just opened in time for the Norwegian holidays and it had been too quiet in the preceding days (but the additional slopes did offer up more variety and challenge in terms of skiing). Friendly and helpful staff on the slopes.

We spent February half term at Beitostolen and had a brilliant time. We stayed at the Stolstunet apartments which are only 5 minutes walk to the slopes. Everyday we all went into ski school (2 adults and 2 kids aged 6 and 8). The instructors spoke perfect English and taught all of us how to ski. The kids loved their lessons and were skiing with confidence down blue and green runs on the third day (having never been on skis before). The runs are all quite short so we felt comfortable letting them ski slightly ahead of us as we knew that everything ends up at the same point. Despite it being February half term the resort was quite. The most we had to wait for a lift was a few minutes and we never felt like there were lots of other people skiing past us at top speed. The food is expensive (around 3 times the price of UK) but we took loads in our hold luggage and cooked in every night. The resort offers lots of additional activities but all the kids wanted to do was ski so we didn't end up doing anything else. As a first family ski resort it is perfect.
