My first time sking in Italy and it was an amazing experience. A must visit. Ski school was super friendly and helped me get a lay if the land. I did visit in March though so there was not much powder or off-piste happening.

Very good with lots of different runs of all abilities and a wide range of terrain. Lots of restaurants and main town is good enough. Would recommend.

Sestriere is a friendly resort with an interesting history, being the first purpose built ski resort in Europe.
The access to the wider area is via Gondola, which is often blowed due to high winds.
The skiing at Sestriere is limited. You will have done everything in a day. However, the slopes are quiet, we had zero lift queues and nice food on the mountain.
The lifts are old, slow and have no covers / heating.
Cheap lift passes make it decent overall value for money and definitely a good place to learn.
