Luxury Resort - Best Vacation Condo- great snow!

My husband and I were able to sneak away for a weekend of snowboarding and massages. This was the best of both worlds. We were able to do both easily from this location. It was ideal all the way around. We had everything we needed. Thank you! The only hard part was the 10am checkout. We were able to store our luggage with the Front Desk so that helped. We would come back here in a second!

The Westgate struggles with inconsistent service and amenities that are better than average but not quite as good as they appear on the surface. It is, however, in an ideal location for getting to the slopes at Canyons for skiers and riders. The apartment itself is furnished tastefully with good quality furniture, nice appliances and excellent bathroom fixtures. Much of what is in the apartment is either new or new quality, but be aware that this apartment does not have a freezer in the kitchen area. The apartment is ideally located for skiers in the Westgate facility. Both heading to the slopes and returning from them, I was extremely grateful that the lockers for ski/snowboard gear were on the same floor as this flat and it could hardly have been easier to get to the slopes; few rentals have this terrific location in the hotel and valuable advantage. The owner and I communicated about some matters and she was the most wonderful person; do not hesitate to conduct business with this owner because she is a lovely person and embodies "trustworthy." If you want to stay in the Westgate in a 1 BR flat, this is the unit to rent and the owner from whom you should rent it.

My husband and I stayed in this condo while I attended a conference at the Grand Summit which was just a two minute walk up the road. The condo space was very comfortable and the location was perfect for skiing. You are literally steps from the gondola. We were able to enjoy the on site amenities including the pool and hot tub, ski lockers and valet ski service, as well as the restaurants. We walked over to the Grand Summit for dinner one night as well. The hotel has a great shuttle service into town but make sure to reserve a spot early as they tend to get busy in the evening making it hard to leave when you want. We ended up taking a taxi a couple times for convenience. The kitchen in the condo is really more of a kitchenette which worked great for us since we didn't plan on cooking much anyway. It would be hard to make a substantial meal in the space. There are a couple burners and a microwave, but no oven and minimal counter space. It would work well for breakfast and a simple lunch.

We came without kids this time, but could easily have fit two kids on the pull out couch. The master has sliding doors to close it off from the living room.

The complex is a little confusing to get around but this was a minor inconvenience and we did figure it out after a couple days.

Location and amenities. This property is exactly where you want to be. Great amenities throughout the resort such as pools, spas, hot tubs, ski locker rooms, ski valets, and the ability to stop by the unit for a quick ski break or lunch.

The building does seem confusing at first, but once you realize a few things it is all easy and makes sense. The resort is made up of several independent buildings that are (this is important!) are all connected via the 4th floor (which this unit is conveniently located on.) So, when needing to move from building to building, you do it via the 4th floor. What is nice is that many amenities such as adult pool, spa, and skier locker room, are located on the 4th floor. Basically, walk out of your room, take a right and go enjoy the resort. Use the elevator in the building to that has the skier locker room to get to the family pool 5th floor or go skiing 6th floor. The building is built into a slope.

Enough tour guide stuff.

This unit is perfect for a couple, this would be a great honeymoon property, or a family with young children. The issue would be privacy if traveling with another couple or a teen family. This unit was perfect for my son and myself (almost 16), and would have been perfect for my family of 4 back when my oldest was, say 13. It was everything that we needed.

The only negative, but not enough to cause me to lower the rating or impact my vacation, is the fact that the room doesn't have a whole lot of sun light. The only window is the slider out to the deck. But, that really didn't have an impact since we were back in the room in the evenings. There is too much to do in PC area to be sitting in the condo the whole day, especially since the location of this property is mint.

If I find myself traveling with my wife or one of my kids in the PC area in the future, I hope that I am lucky enough to book this property again. Had a great time.

Thank you.

We rented a condo unit so as to be close to the Canyons Ski area. It is located within 100 yards of nearby lifts and an easy walk. Just store your skis and boots on site and walk back to your condo if you wish. The 1 bedroom unit had just enough amenities for a short stay. However, the building itself is very confusing. No elevator reaches all floors and it is essentially a maze . What you end up doing is memorizing your way in and out as to understand in a short stay is virtually impossible. It seems as if the builders kept adding on and new floors/additions were not connected in any logical sort of way. There was not one time where I did not encounter someone who was asking me how to get to the store, lifts, ski shop, lobby, etc.

So, would I rent there again? Probably. The location overrides the poor design and the staff was very helpful. Just know you are in for a challenge moving around in and out of the building given its shortcomings.
