Ski Total was founded in 1982 (same year as Skiworld!) by two ski enthusiasts who were looking to establish a small, independent specialist ski company. Over the next 15 years, the company grew to offer 36 catered chalets and 12 partner hotels in Europe and North America.

In 2002, Ski Total was bought by Enigma Travel Group who had previously acquired the family specialists Esprit Ski. From 2003, the company focussed entirely on chalet quality and chalet Hotel holidays focussing primarily on the adult market. The company's portfolio and reputation continued to grow to feature 100 chalet and Chalet Hotels.

In 2010, Enigma Travel Group was acquired by Hotelplan Limited, a Swiss company who already owned Inghams, one of the longest standing and most respected tour operators. Between the three sister companies, Ski Total, Esprit and Inghams, the combined Hotel Plan group now offers a full range of ski holidays including chalets, chalet hotels, locally run hotels and apartments catering for families, couples and groups across the whole UK market.

The catered package includes breakfast, afternoon tea and cake 5 or 6 days a week, pre dinner glass of prosecco,  3 course dinner for 6 evenings per week with a choice of quality bottled wine.
