Hi! We are six people looking for three rooms or a three bedroom apartment anywhere connected to this ski resort. Not planning to hire a car so ideally looking for something central-connected to a ski shuttle /bus stop. We're going on a budget trip. Any ideas or tips pls?

Hi, there's nothing much "budget" in Cortina but you could look at B&B hotel Meuble villa It's by a ski bus stop, short walk to town centre/restaurants also to a main bus station. Stayed there a few years ago, people running it then where lovely

Hi, sorry what do you mean by parks? Snowparks with jumps etc?
Also 3-4 days is only sufficient for staying in one resort in my opinion.
Livingo is a good town and has a great snowpark in Mottolino area, but quite a long transfer from Milan.
Same for Cortina (transfer). Haven't seen any serious snowparks there when skiing unless they are tucked away somewhere.
In the Dolomites Super ski area the serious jumps are at the back of Seiser Alm/Alpe di Siusi area (Ortisei). Plan de Gralba (Selva Val Gardena) has always a nice area for fun. But again, the transfer might be too long if only staying for a few days.
Also look at Madonna di Campiglio ski area in Brenta Dolomites. Ursula Snowpark off Groste gondola is good there. Also if enough snow "natural pipe" is fun. Runs for every availability.
Another area in the Dolomites I would look at is Alpe Lusia/San Pellergino near Moena, it's small but noticed a good fun snow park in Alpe Lusia last year.
All depends on what your preferences are and how you travel but hope this helps, any questions don't hesitate to ask.

bro thanks alot for the reply, i dont do jumps at all, i can do a double black no problem (no moguls) i just dont do tricks or jumps. the first time i ski in italy was in Cervinia 2 days, one day with family the other day ski to Zermatt with brother in law (he lives in Milan). this time i want to go to Austria also. i travel crazy brother. i drive 19 hours every year none stop from Miami to West Virginia (Snowshoe) to ski 2 days. trust me 5 or 7 hours of driving is nothing but a few joints for me.
My plan is to leave Thursday 2/30/25 from Milan around 6pm to were ever i am skiing first (park that also opens at night) that Friday 1/31 ski all day until they kick us out, then start driving to next location (Austria) chill all day Saturday and then next day ski Sunday 2/2 all day and night, and then drive back to Milan n be back around 4 or 5am. thats my plan boss, my kids have gotten better at skiing but not to do crazy stuff, so parks that have easy and medium runs will be nice
