If you’re stuck for ideas for the perfect Easter get-away, why not discover the Powder Byrne difference this Easter! Sample the powder playgrounds of Zürs in Austria or the Swiss resort of Zermatt or hop off to the warm spring sunshine of Vila Vita Parc in the Algarve or the Anassa in Cyprus.

Rest assured, Powder Byrne have the perfect remedy for those winter blues and guarantee the whole family will have the time of their lives.

POWDER PLAYGROUND
Whisk the family away to the slopes this Easter as fresh snow has fallen across all of our resorts and more of the white stuff is on its way!

PB crèche ensures that your little ones from 6 months to 3 years are kept stimulated 6 days a week with a maximum ratio of one qualified and experienced nanny to 3 children. Pre-school age children are simply pampered in the pb crèche while their parents are having the time of their lives on the slopes. The crèche is free of charge outside of school holidays.

Meanwhile, active 3 and 4 year olds also benefit from spending time on the slopes. In Powder Byrne’s Yeti Primer club, experienced Powder Byrne staff and a ski instructor encourage your little ones to take their first steps on skis for a couple of hours on each morning of their holiday. The remainder of the day is then spent playing and napping in the crèche.

ZÜRS
Zürs is forecasting 65cm of fresh snow over the next few days. This charming chocolate-box Austrian village of Zürs offers doorstep access to the massive Arlberg ski region, a natural alpine snowbowl.

COMPLIMENTARY SKI PASS IN ZERMATT
Zermatt is already enjoying 184cm on the upper slopes and a further 30cm is forecast! Zermatt is consistently ranked as one of the world’s top 5 ski resorts. Its unique combination of breathtaking scenery, awesome skiing, enchanting architecture and vibrant resort life are unbeatable.
