Our 1st time will not be the last

We had never been to this area (we typically vacation in the Carribean) and had no idea what to expect. We were VERY pleasantly surprised. The staff were very accomidating and put us in a unit that was as close to our requests as possible. One BIG suggestion.........DO NOT USE EXPEDIA! Call the Condo's direct. They will meet Expedias price if you request it and your experience will be much better.
We are not skiers but based on the # of people waiting to use the FREE transportation across the street from our unit, it must have been a very convenient location. The decor was so-so in our unit but given that we are used to staying in 5 star hotels, our expectations may have been a bit unrealistic. It was very comfortable and well equipped. From the kitchen to the linens, all was nice, clean and very well cared for. My only complaint was the lack of elevators. The stairs, luggage (I need to learn to pack lighter) and the altitude made for an uncomforable move in. From then on we made certain that we went back and forth as few times as possible.
It would have been nice to have a cover over the outdoor hot tubs since it was snowing but that made for a very unique experience.......1 very small suggestion to the unit owners........Put up a Christmas tree for the holidays and place a 'guest book' in the unit so all that visit can share their experiences and suggestions.......
I can't wait to take my entire family back for a Mid-Winter getaway.
