Ischgl is expensive and one of the main "party" resorts in the Alps. I
haven't been myself but would love to, but I think the skiing is quite
tricky.
I would also not bother with Zermatt which was mentioned as you really need
to be a good intermediate to get the best out of it, though Cervinia, linked
to Zermatt on the Italian side, is a good bet. Snowsure, short transfer,
plenty of cruising skiing, sunny.
As for Les Arcs, I would stick to Arcs 1800 (the main one).
Another good one is Selva in Val Gardena(Italy).

Felly sgrifennodd Steve Olive :
Blimey, Ischgl looks very good. (Don't fancy Zermatt for some reason)
Why haven't I heard of that?

I investigated Ischgl a few years ago. I couldn't find a decent priced
Ferienwohnung anywhere near; they were all much more than I'm used to
paying
in Switzerland.

Maybe I should have looked at Samnaun (linked to Ischgl but in CH), but
driving there in the winter could be a problem I guess; the road up to the
village is hairy enough in the summer!
