Hello all. Long time TUG BBS reader, first time poster. TERRIFIC site, always with loads of great info!
We're HGVC owners in Hawaii, but managed to swing a 2BR plus at Valdoro Lodge for a week in January starting the weekend of MLK on club points (knowing we're VERY fortunate to have gotten it
, with no illusions of ever being able to do so again short of another aligning of the planets as we had this time).
For any Valdoro veterans out there, our family just had a couple questions I figure are best answered via first-hand knowledge and experience:
1. Does Valdoro handle lift ticket, ski school, rental, etc sales, or ought we be handling those things elsewhere? For that matter, might anyone know of a good door on which to go knocking to try and get these items at a better than off-the-street price?
2. I understand the swimming pool is indoor heated, but in a separate building. Is this right? There are many things far worse than a quick dash through the cold air to get to the pool, but was just wondering if my understanding is correct.
3. Anything else anyone would care to share about a trip to Valdoro, good or bad, ski season or not, would be great to help us prep for our trip, and likewise greatly appreciated.

Thanks much in advance.
