Went for a long weekend in March with family. Perfect for a long weekend but would have been a bit too quiet for a full week.
Quick/ efficient transfers, zero lift queues and very quiet pistes.
Downside was that nightlife non existent and only minimal restaurant options in the resort.

Skiied here numerous times Maria Alm in particular is a beautiful village with great bars and restaurants with a welcoming family vibe, the skiing is a tour of different villages you can ski from Maria Alm to Mulbach and then do the return journey taking in fantastic views all the way, the lift system is second to none and massive investment has been made, queues are rare and the valley is snow sure. Highly recommended and a bit off the tourist map for Brits. I love the place and would return any time summer or winter.
