Overview
Right in the centre of Pradollano, Meliá Sol y Nieve puts you at the heart of the relaxed, sociable atmosphere that makes skiing in Sierra Nevada so distinctive. Set just off the central plaza, the hotel is surrounded by tapas bars, bodegas, cafés, shops and lively après spots, while ski hire is conveniently located within the same building. Once you’re geared up, it’s only a short walk across the square to the lifts.
Inside, the hotel has a stylish mid-century modern feel, combining natural materials, sleek furnishings, bright open spaces and large windows that flood the interiors with light. Off the slopes, there’s plenty to keep you entertained. You can head straight from your final run of the day to the sunny terrace bar for drinks with mountain views, challenge friends and family in the arcade, or fully switch off in the impressive YHI Spa. Whether you prefer lively après or laid-back relaxation, the atmosphere here works both ways.
Your stay includes half board, starting each morning with a colourful buffet breakfast packed with everything from cooked favourites and Spanish breads to fresh fruit and pastries. In the evenings, the generous buffet spreads across a wide range of international dishes alongside local Andalusian specialities. Expect fresh seafood, grilled meats, vibrant salads and regional desserts that are perfect after a long day on the mountain.

About Sierra Nevada
Sierra Nevada offers one of Europe’s most distinctive ski experiences. Its name literally means “snowy mountain range”, and with around 320 days of sunshine each year, it’s far brighter and warmer than most ski resorts across the continent. Despite the sunshine, snow conditions stay impressively reliable too, thanks to around 80% of the resort’s 112km of slopes sitting above 2,700 metres.
At the base of the mountain sits Pradollano, the resort’s purpose-built ski village. The atmosphere here is unmistakably Spanish, with sunny terraces, lively tapas bars and spacious plazas creating a relaxed après-ski scene. Two gondolas whisk skiers halfway up the mountain to the Borreguiles ski station beside the nursery slopes, making it an easy meeting point for groups stopping for piste-side beers and bocadillos which is the classic Andalusian sandwich that works perfectly as ski fuel.
One of the standout parts of skiing here is the scenery. On clear days, you can carve down the slopes while looking out across the shimmering Mediterranean Sea and the Costa del Sol and with particularly good visibility, you may even catch sight of Morocco across the water.
Away from the pistes, there’s plenty more to do. Families can enjoy snow tubing and toboggan runs, while adventure seekers can head out on snowmobiles or fat bikes. And for those wanting to keep the evening going, the resort has a lively late-night side too, with bars and clubs carrying the fiesta well into the early hours.
