The Westin Riverfront Mountain Villas, Beaver Creek Mountain

Really like it!

Gorgeous private villa within the hotel. Immaculate yet warm and comfortable.

Great stay, everything as expected.

Such a nice property. Easy access. Friendly staff. The amenities always available. Good food and good ambiance. Great options for families

I've stayed at a few properties in the Vail/Breckenridge/Avon area and this is my favorite so far. I have not stayed at the Ritz or Grand Hyatt in Vail and those may change my mind but I digress. It's worth noting that there are only a little over 30 villas available at the vacation club property so booking here during ski season is very difficult. I stayed in a 1 BR villa on the 3rd floor with a view of the gondola. The bathroom was really nice with a separate soaking tub and walkin shower. The sofa has a short back and made it awkward to lean back on. That was my only critique of the villa. It's true that the vacation club building has no amenities. I chose to walk through the garage to get to the hotel building rather than walking outside. The 3 large outdoor hot tubs made the effort worth it. The hot tubs here are better than the other ski properties I have stayed at. It's also true that the property is not on the Beaver Creek mountain. I was here the week before the gondola was running. While there are numerous free shuttle and bus options, I chose to drive and park at the mountain for convenience. The drive is not far at all. I also attended a sale meeting. I did not feel pressured. I was looking for an option that would ideally guarantee me a ski week here or improve my chances, but since they are not selling weeks anymore, there are no options to guarantee a reservation. I passed on making a purchase. Beaver Creek turned out to be really fun even though the mountain was partially open during early December. I would love to come back again and would even stay at the nearby Sheraton Mountain Villas (while clearly a downgrade, the property is fine) if the Westin Riverfront is not available.

Excellent accommodations, everything was very clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly, many activities in the lobby and beautiful views. We loved the look out bar, the gym and the hot tubs. The hotel is very pet friendly. Do yourself a favor and go to this resort when you get a chance. Completely worth it. We will def be back.
