I’m very lucky to be able travel regularly to ski resorts across the world, and over the years, I have learnt that staying in a well-managed home is far more comfortable than a luxury hotel room. Le Chamonix 11 is the perfect example, and is easily a luxe 5-star property in my books, and offering exceptional value in a town that is notorious for being expensive.
This property is even better in the photos. The kitchen is generously sized, with a huge gas stove, outdoor BBQ, double-door fridge (with icemaker), water filter, Insinkerator, and appliances galore (electric pancake griddle, food processers etc).
We loved the open floorplan with gas fireplace, feather stuffed sofa and generous dining table. The rooms are thoughtfully decorated, and all the table and floor lamps are a lovely touch.
Perched above the Roaring Fork River’s lovely sound, this location across the road from Aspen Highlands is hard to beat. We timed the walk in ski boots – 4 minutes. These days we prefer to eat in, and plenty of restaurant and grocery delivery is available to make life easier, but if you really want to head downtown, the bus loop is nearby. The two car spaces directly outside the front door are also super convenient.
We booked directly with iTrip, who were supremely accommodating and helpful. I had a couple of enquiries about the property while were staying there, and they responded immediately each time, and they generously assisted me with some personal matters.
Lastly, and most importantly in today’s COVID climate, Le Chamonix 11 was immaculately clean. It far exceeded my expectations – from the sparkling cutlery drawer to the shiny bathrooms and the crisp cotton sheets and stacks of towels. iTrip stocks their properties with more than enough consumables, including large pump packs of shampoo, conditioner and lotion, and on our 2 week stay, we never ran out of cleaning and bathroom products.
Thanks iTrip Aspen, we had a wonderful stay.
