Our family of 5 stayed at Active Life for our recent ski trip to Madarao. We found the lodge to have a great vibe and it was a really fun place to stay. Rooms were great, good showers, comfortable beds and a small fridge. There is also an onsen and activity room with a pool table. We stayed with a group of friends and there was plenty of space at the lodge to sit and have a chat. The bar was also great and Matt was an awesome barman. The location was spot on with a short walk to slopes and restaurants etc. Lisa and her staff were amazing and went above and beyond to make our stay a good one and I would happily recommend this lodge to anyone.

Great family hotel. The room was a good size with a very comfortable bed. The hotel has heaps of space, there is a games room, hot bath, and a lovely bar and dining room area. Meals and breakfast at the hotel were excellent. Lisa the manager was a fabulous host, helping us forward our luggage and dropping us at the bus stop.

Our first trip to Madarao and this hotel was in the perfect location to ski some beautiful runs. Just a short walk to the lift to hit the slopes. The rooms were clean and spacious and with great views. We had meals included which were tasty especially the apple pie! On Valentines Day the staff went to a big effort decorating and serving a special meal 👏🏼. Staff were welcoming and attentive and had a great sense of humour. Special mention to Sean for great barista skills. That coffee art is pure class! Vanessa, thanks for the hot tips for dinner locations. Guests should take notes as all were perfect choices. If you want great ski or board hire you can’t go past stopping to see Casey and Dan. Our demo skis hit the mark thank you. Although I have it on good authority that Josh and Georgia are great too! If you want great drinks at the bar then Harry can help you. The bar is a good area to hang out and we can’t wait to see the completed renovations in that area of the hotel which will make it a good apres ski spot for guests and others. And not to forget great hospitality from Yannis and Joaquin. If you have spare time then take a trip to see the snow monkeys. It’s well worth the trip and the team can help organise transport. And of course a big thanks to management Lisa and Stuart for your enthusiasm for making the hotel a home away from home. Busy planning our next trip!

We chose this based on good ratings and proximity to ski lifts. The place is really sweet, cosy and comes equipped with everything our family needed. Our kids were so sad to leave. We liked: - Very friendly and informative staff. Shout out to Lisa and everyone else there the week do Feb 12! - clean and spacious rooms - simple and filling breakfast included each morning - onsite place to store ski gear - onsite hot chocolate and vending machine - small mini onsen hot bath area - small kids play area plus foozeball and pool table Only suggestion: fix the dryer (hard to dry washed) clothes. Highly recommend if you looking for a cozier, personal feel that's super close to the ski lifts.

My family and I stayed at Active Life for a week in Jan/Feb 2024 and loved it. Lisa and the team are very accommodating, going out of their way to make our stay comfortable. The location is great, short walk to get to the ski hill and close to all the restaurants. Super comfortable beds and generous sized rooms. Breakfast was great, hot options cooked fresh every morning. Highly recommend active life if you are visiting Madarao

I booked a 4-person family room for 4 nights in Jan and we had a great time. Lisa (the manager) and her staff went over and above to accommodate our every need, including transfers to/from the station up the mountain, specialised meals to accommodate my husband's seafood allergy, a takeaway meal for our son when he was sick, getting our laundry out of the dryer when our son got lost on the mountain, even a special treat for my son 16th birthday etc, etc, etc. Amazing hospitality - highly recommend! Additional benefits - super comfy beds, cosy bar with great cocktails, fabulous outdoor hot baths (and spacious showers), pool table, laundry, ski hire nearby, very few queues on the slopes, lots of restaurant options in the area. We look forward to returning in the near future.

Lisa, Stuart and the rest of the staff were fantastic. We had a few issues on the trip and they were so professional and helpful. Great rooms, comfortable beds, toilet and shower in each room, breakfast was nice and the location is excellent. Would highly recommend and hopefully get back there one day.

I have never been made to feel more welcome in my life! Thank you Lisa and Stewart! They made everything so easy and wonderful. Also, hands down, that was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in!! Truly, a wonderful stay! I couldn’t recommend this place more!
