Any help would be appreciated.

I will recommend Zermatt too, I will definitely be back as unfortunately only managed to visit for the weekend!

Trip advisor has most of the hotels reviewed on their website and usually the average nightly charge. May be worth a look... Make sure you check out the piano playing man in Grampis ;)

Some less so :(

Hey Guys.
Big thanks to all of you who have commented - it's a great help - lots of loooong evenings ahead searching.
Havent been skiing for years - jeeez some places are expensive - picked a great time of year for prices eh!

Thanks again

Kevin

Definitely not cheap, are you booking a 'package' type deal or are you DIYing it?

Hi Pablo
At the moment I have done all the research but if I came across a good package I would grab it.
I am slowly becoming disheartened to be honest.
Have spent weeks before I posted 'help' on this site.
Because we need ski hire as well as clothes hire (i mean All clothes... it can be 40+ degrees C in Western Australia at Christmas and i dont even own a coat let alone a jacket) it makes the whole trip very expensive - even for a honeymoon.
After the above and flights and lift pass I think we would be maxing at $375AUD a night (room not pp). and for the style we would like...not a chance in hell.
I'm putting extra on the lottery tomorrow - if all goes well i'll be booking hotel nevai or raffl's st antonerhof.

Where is the w(ise) one?? Hiding for the summer?

Have you thought about getting a nice limo or sedan to take you guys to whistler and back? I've done it last year and I booked with "Classic Limousine" -- their chauffeurs were really kind to my group and I, helping us with our luggage and stuff. Limousines are definitely the best way to travel! :D
