Manzano Apartments

I stayed in the Manzano apartments during February half term 2011. I went with my two children, aged 4 and 5, and my parents. The five of us stayed in a family room, which we found to contain two sets of bunk beds and another single bed. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and was great value for the price we paid.
There was a maid service who came to change the towels and empty the bins on the Wednesday (we went Sunday to Sunday). The people who work in the apartments were so wonderfully friendly and cheerful - they were lovely!
The cafe-restaurant-bar area downstairs has TVs and music, games machines, pool tables and lots of comfortable seating. Each room is assigned their own locker downstairs for storing skis and boots. In the basement level there is a ski and boot hire shop, so you don't need to leave the apartments to get your equipment organised.
We chose the half board option, which meant that we had our breakfast in the cafe-restaurant of the apartments (a choice of cereal, full cooked breakfast, etc) and was great quality, again with good service. If you go for half board, it will mean that you will have dinner in the Hotel Olympiades, about 100 metres down the road. It was a three course dinner, the food was beautiful and the staff there were amazingly friendly, welcoming and fun.
Regarding the resort itself: the buses cannot drive through Pas as the roads are too narrow and winding. The buses drop you off in a central location and the luggage is transported off to the various hotels, leaving guests to be led by the reps. It is very 'hilly', and if you have any mobility problems this may be a little troublesome, particularly if you suffer from altitude sickness. There is a good, reliable bus service from Pas into the capital, and to the other resorts in Andorra.
We had a ton of snow whilst we were in Pas, yet it was scorching hot during the day time and we were often skiing in just a long-sleeved T-shirt instead of ski-jacket. Great selection and spread of runs - something for everyone. Also, children must be 6 to attend ski-school, not 4 (as in other places), but there is a creche for children aged 1-4 and a 'ski-garden' for those aged 4 and 5, which costed around 35 Euro for an afternoon session - it is considerably less if you book it before you go.
We booked with Crystal ski, and the rep, Sam, was absolutely brilliant - really helpful despite being ill! We went on a husky sleigh ride, which was around 35 Euro per person, and skidoos are 45 Euro for half an hour, 90 Europ per hour. There is also a spa at another nearby hotel. There are lots of shops, restaurants, bars and loads of things to do for those who do not ski. All in all, a great holiday!
