The accommodations at The Lions Mane II condo from Dec 3rd through December 9th, 2011 were lovely. The condo was perfect for our family as it truly encompassed the mountain setting for us on vacation that we will always remember. We also loved waking up to the amazing view of the mountains from the master bedroom and living room. The unit offered us and more: a gas fireplace, private balcony, equipped kitchen, parking, TVs/ entertainment ctr, bathroom and bedroom labeled organization in the closets, washer and dryer, etc. The condo for us was very clean with a home feeling accompanied by great paintings on the wall. We also enjoyed the vicinity of the 1 minute walk to the in-town bus stop! This allowed our family to really enjoy the town of Vail during vacation and could have not have been more pleased with everything; as we look forward to another vacation in that condo in the future.

Owner response:Thank you so much for the great review and thank you for taking the time to write it! Hopefully you'll keep us in mind for future vacations!

February 2011 Ski vacation

The condo was clean, well maintained and exactly as described. The layout worked very well for our family of five and the owner provided excellent service, sending us useful information in advance and allowing us to check in early since nobody was checking out. We cooked several meals in and found the kitchen to be well equipped. While we rented a car and were glad to have a parking spot, the bus stop was right out front and we found it more convenient and cost effective to use the bus system to ski and to go into town in the evening. From my research, the price was extremely fair and we would stay there again. And, yes, the skiing was incredible!

The expectation were beaten when we stepped inside the condo. With a high ceiling it looked bigger than it is. It was perfect for 5 of us, enough room. The place was close to the Vail Village, and shuttle stops right outside the building. All the art works were nice, other arts and artifacts were displayed very nicely. The unit was very clean and organized. I will definitely recommend someone to stay at the same unit unless they will be travelling to Vail during the same time as i will be. Coz' i will be staying at this place again and again when i go vail to Ski during winter.

Fabulous condo during Vail Ski Vacation

My husband and I staying in the condo with his sister and her family. The condo was GREAT for what we needed - the views are excellent! and the bus is right outside making coming and going so easy... and so close to Vail village! A great suprise was how well stocked the condo was - not only from a kitchen utensil perspective but the small things you have to buy (salt, suger, etc.) were already supplied, there were extra towels, etc. making the stay that much easier and more relaxing. The condo is a little tight for 2 full families - but it's Vail! Just go outside! We will definetely be returning.

Owner response:Thank you so much for the nice review. Hope to have you back soon!

expectations beaten

When I booked Anna's condo I had concerns. I ski a few times a year and always stay close to the lifts. I was concerned about distance, getting to and from, what to expect. Sending money and then getting a key. I can honestly say that it was one of the best experiences I have ever had. The condo was peaceful and tastefully decorated. The bus stop location and Vail bus experience was excellent. But most of all, Anna was more helpful and caring than the staff of most high end lodges. I look forward to staying there again and have already recommended it to friends.

Owner response:Eric; thank you so much for the review! I am glad your concerns proved unfounded and I am sorry that they might have given you some worries while preparing for your trip. Looking forward to having you and your friends as guests in the future!

Jersey goes to Vail - March 2010

I plan one or two ski trips every year for a group of us to meet out west for skiing. Many times we stay in the Vail area. This March a group of five of us, all from New Jersey, stayed at Anna's. She is a pleasure to deal with and our stay at the condo worked out perfectly. The 'bed' situation was great and we were just minutes from the slopes. I have to mention Anna's beautiful art work throughout the condo which made our stay especially pleasurable.

Owner response:Thank you so much for the nice review. Hope to see you again next season!

This is a great condo that we stayed in for 5 days. On the Vail local bus route with good views of Vail mountain. The owner is very easy to work with. Place has a great master bedroom and fireplace. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could ever need to cook in. Parking is limited but everything else was great. Place is suitable for two families to share.

Owner response:Thank you so much for taking the time and for the nice review!

Everything you could wish for

Anna's condo in Vail was excellently located, being only 10 minutes by free bus to the ski hills, with a stop right out front. The unit was not only exactly as described, but was thoughtfully equipped with every little item that made it feel like your own place - every cooking utensil imaginable, wireless internet, helpful information sheets, and much more. The pre-arrival help from Anna was great, and her followup afterwards was very considerate. If we go skiing next year, that's where we want to stay!

Owner response:Wow!!Thanks so much!

The place to stay in Vail

This condo has everything you could possibly want for a great vacation in Vail. The layout is excellent affording privacy for the three bedrooms. The home is clean and incredibly stocked with any kitchen utensil (and double on many) necessary to prepare a nice feast for the family. Wireless internet, fireplace, a marvelous view and most importantly great access to the Vail ski resort. The bus stop is just downstairs from the condo, it is punctual and the ride to the mountain is under 10 minutes. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable and well located condo in Vail. The owner Anna was a dream to deal with. Stop looking at other places to stay, you found your vaction home in Vail!! I will most definitely return!

Owner response:I am so glad you enjoyed your stay! I try and will keep on trying to make it even better and more comfortable.

Great quiet location. On a shuttle stop.

We found Anna's warm and inviting. This property is not on a busy street but with the shuttle stop right there, we could get to the Vail transportation center in 10 minutes. We would definitely consider Anna's condo for a future visit.

Owner response:Thanks! Hope to see you again soon!
