The complex had a great staging area to put on ski boots alongside the lockers. Then you walk out the door and immediately get on the shuttle to the lifts! No messing with loading up skis in your vehicle nor parking!
We had a very comfortable and convenient stay with our four young kids and grandparents. We were a bit wary after reading one negative review and the fact that it was the ONLY rental left for our timeframe. However, this is a clean and wonderful rental choice!
Pros:
The building is right across from the free shuttle, or is a short walking distance (with snow boots, not ski boots) from the mountain base.
The kitchen was well-stocked with cookware, small appliances (coffeemaker, blender, crockpot, toaster), dishes, utensils, and glassware. There was dish soap, dishwasher detergent, dish cloths, a new (sealed) sponge and paper towels.
Plenty of beds and sleeper sofas (could probably sleep 12). Bathrooms prepared with lots of towels, toiletries and extra toilet paper.
Super convenient to have a washer and dryer in the unit to clean clothes or dry wet items. We appreciated the laundry basket that was available.
Humidifier available in one of the bedroom closets as well as extra sheets, blankets, and a first aid kit.
The gas fireplace was cozy and easy to operate. We enjoyed reading in the Lazy Boy recliners and playing family games at the table.
Two members of our family enjoyed warm leisurely baths in the jetted tub upstairs. Jets were clean.
Cons:
We had a difficult time finding the correct building and unit when we arrived in the dark. The building is labeled but the signs are not lit. We probably roamed around the inner parts of the building for a good 25 minutes before we found the correct condo. Better directions on how to find the unit would be helpful.
The gaps in the railing on the loft are dangerous for babies or toddlers. Of course, the spiral stairs are also dangerous for young kids.
There are ski storage lockers on the first floor but we couldnât unlock the door marked with our unit number. I guess ski storage is NOT included with this rental. We stored skis in our car.
The âCondo Infoâ binder left a lot to be desired. Clarity on ski storage lockers, guest WiFi and use of the satellite TV would be helpful. A shuttle map and mountain map would also be appreciated.
Tiny issue-we needed more kitchen trash bags. This might just have been us.
Spacious condo on 3rd floor great for large families. Our family of five enjoyed that we could spread out after a day on the slopes. Our teenager could hang up stairs while our little ones played in the living area. Fully stocked kitchen great for meals prepared at the house! Easy pickup starting at 8 am by the shuttle to carry us all to the slopes and bring us home, very easy and quick! We enjoyed the fireplace and coziness of the condo and the proximity close to slopes or short drive to town or country club. Great family rental, definitely recommend.
Weâll be back! Well-appointed with ample space; great small touches, from toiletries to plentiful kitchen utensils. Washer and dryer a plus. Adding a night was easy through Vacasa.
Great layout for families with children and convenient to resort activities
Overall, we were very happy with our stay. The location to the resort was an easy 15 minute walk, or you could take the shuttle. (We opted for the shuttle with the winter conditions outside.) The upstairs loft area is large with multiple bed choices - if you pull out the trundle and utilize the sleeper sofa, you can have 6 children stay up there. The 2 king bedrooms downstairs are comfortable as well, so this unit is nice for 2 families. It has easy access to the elevator which was nice for us rolling our boxes of winter gear in and out. We'd love to stay here again!
Conveniently located to ski resort. Shuttle to ski resort stops right in front of this condominium. Spacious restrooms and fireplace works great. Spiral staircase makes squeaking noises but kids love it.
The condo was beautiful and slept everyone comfortably. I loved the kitchen.
Everything was wonderful. The condo was beautiful. Looking forward to our next trip and hopefully my husband can go. Thank you for lending us your place for the weekend.
We loved this condo!!! We had 4 adults and 4 teens (girls) and this condo was the perfect size. The upstairs bathroom was huge. The upstairs loft area was great for teens. The downstairs was great for adults to relax after our ski days. We enjoyed the mountain view from the balcony each day. The condo is in the best location even the shuttle driver said so. You literally walk out of the âwet roomâ area to the shuttle stop. We cooked breakfast at the condo and the cookware was great, oven great, dishwasher even better! Every description from the owner was spot on. She responded to my emails really fast and was very helpful as this was our first time in Angel Fire. We will definitely be back!
