Portillo Ski Season 2008
This last weekend I was invited by Portillo for a weekend of snowboarding.
I had never experienced the Portillo hotel experience and I must say, very different from the day trip.
Service is great, everyone on the staff ends up recognizing the guests, and its a rare trait these days. On the lifts, you just let them know you're with the hotel and you feel a little extra special treatment even here. For instance, they'll only need to see you ski pass once, and they'll remember for the length of your stay.
We left a grey and cloudy Santiago to arrive to the perfect blue skies of the Portillo area. There had been a very heavy snowfall the previous Friday and the powder was packed, and very nice.
In the next installment, more on the snow, runs, and pool!
