First choice advertised the Yllas Saaga as a 4 star hotel. As there was nothing rated 5 stars in the area it appeared to be the best choice - what a mistake. But there were some positives - Excellent location near the lift and the slopes ideal for the 5 and 2 years old to play in the snow. The... more

What a magical journery!! from the moment you leave Gatwick on the plane there is such a lovely atmosphere on the aircraft and all the children can really express themselves, we sang songs told jokes so the journey went quickly. But I must warn anyone taking a young baby it is not suitable for them. In our party of 11... more

I cannot understand the negative reviews on previously. We had a fantastic time at the Yllas Saaga, we stayed in the apartments which were spacious and very well equipt (full kitchen facilities). The food was of a good standard generally, Breakfasts were not just fish but we had eggs, bacon, meatballs (yum) and cold cuts as well as 5 types... more

This was our first ski holiday and we had such a great time we're going back. We stayed in Feb 2009 in the Sagga hotel. The room was clean and comfortable with a fantastic view of the fell. The hotel had all the amenities you would expect, but as Yllas is quite expensive we will be taking a kettle and... more

Location grear for skiing and snowboarding, snow in abundance. Rooms adequate in size and decor, modern and simple. Unfortunately very sloppy housekeeping, didn't even bother making beds and cleaning bathrooms on some days, had to complain twice during our week. Food was extremely disappointing, low quality, pale french fries, mushy veg, if any at all. Lucky to have one dessert... more
