Great resort any time, big area(although not all together), lots to do off the slopes, and a short transfer from Geneva. There are also lots of accomodation options, from cheap hostel type places, right up to luxury chalets.



Yes, we had some great powder turns from the top of Le Grand Montets and a great day at Le Tour a few Easters ago. The prices were also good.

I was there last week and I was wondering the same, so I asked some of the staff at the hotel and they said its fine in April generally although the sun can do the same as it does elsewhere. But the resort is at 1800m, so you're going pretty high up.
Others to consider are Obergurgl, Solden, St Anton, Val d'Isere and Cervinia. I've also ski'd Verbier and Serre Che in early April with great snow.

Its usually ok in April. Going late in the month would be a gamble anywhere to be fair.
