Is the date you mention still French holidays? If so, some French resorts may well be rammed. If not, Alpe D'Huez would be good. I like LDA but it's a marmite resort. A mate really rates Montgenevre.

You could also look at somewhere like Sauze d'Oulz which is less than 90 minutes from Turin. Lots of gentle skiing available. Innsbruck would give you access to northern end of Dolomites in less than 2 hours. Dolomites are perfect for intermediates, though the timid one might not fancy one or two pitches on the Sella Ronda.

La Thuile's a good place. Home runs not easy but you can download on a lift.

Courmayeur - just the others side of the Mont Blanc tunnel.
Nice town and enough of the early intermediate skiing that you are looking for.

To be honest this year I would be looking for a resort with plenty of N facing slopes. Alps are feeling and looking distinctly spring like at moment. Already some full depth avalanches in S and W facing slopes which would not be expecting for another 6 weeks or more.
